After starting 22nd, Erik Jones also fought the handling of the No. 43 U.S. Air Force Chevrolet throughout the race. Early on, the car was loose and the No. 43 team went to work on the handling making adjustments.

Smith and John Hunter Nemechek fought for the win, and Smith won the battle, earning his first-career NXS win.

Chris Buescher’s afternoon at Richmond Raceway started well as the Castrol Ford began the day inside the top-10, but troubles throughout the 400-lap race put him 30th at the checkered flag.

Brad Keselowski put the Solomon Plumbing Ford inside the top-10 for nearly all 400 laps of Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Richmond, ultimately driving to a 10th-place finish, his third top-10 of the young season.

Chevrolet and Kyle Larson drove to victory Sunday in the Toyota Owners 400 at Richmond Raceway as the manufacturer continued its strong early-season run in the NASCAR Cup Series.

Harrison Burton and the No. 21 Menards/Dutch Boy team fought their way forward in the second half of the Toyota Owners 400 at Richmond Raceway and scored a 19th-place finish on Wood Brothers Racing Day in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
