A frantic race at Atlanta with rain threatening saw many interesting names up front and with a chance to win, but in the end it was a familiar driver capturing the checkered flag.
William Byron claimed his series-leading fourth win of the 2023 season, just ahead of Daniel Suarez and A.J. Allmendinger as rain forced he race to be called 75 laps shy of the scheduled distance.
The victory moves Byron into the regular season points lead, 21 points ahead of Martin Truex Jr.
