The No. 16 maintained position and came to pit road for scheduled service on lap 12 and again on lap 22, ending the stage in 16th plac. This put him in position to start Stage 2 from the lead. Allmendinger maintained the lead until lap 41 when he was passed and opted to come to pit road for service. Battling a loose handling Chevy, the team flipped the second stage and restarted the final stage in sixth place, but quickly took over fourth place. After Allmendinger reported he had used up his tires, Crew Chief, Trent Owens made the decision to gamble and bring Allmendinger to pit road on lap 81. He drove back up to sixth before coming to pit road for the final time with 14 laps remaining. On the final lap while making a pass for seventh place, the No. 16 was clipped by a competitor, causing him to spin in the final corner. Allmendinger crossed the line backwards and earned a ninth-place finish.
