William Byron: Wins the Xfinity 500

Byron won the Xfinity 500 NASCAR Cup Series race at Martinsville Speedway on Sunday afternoon.

Analysis:

The Hendrick Motorsports star dominated from the pole and would lead a race-high 304 laps on the day. Byron would sweep the first two stages but would face a strong challenge from Ryan Blaney late. He would chase down and retake the lead from the No. 12 Ford down the stretch and survive a late caution and restart to capture the victory over Blaney. It was Byron's third win of the season and 16th-career victory. He'll race for the championship next weekend in Phoenix.
