NASCAR results: Full finishing order of AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 400 race at Dover
Back to business as usual in NASCAR. For the first time since June, Shane van Gisbergen, former Supercars star and current Cup Series rookie, did not win the Sunday race. That honor belonged to Denny Hamlin. Hamlin celebrated NASCAR's return to oval tracks after two straight road races — and three in five weeks — by triumphing in overtime during the AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 400 at Dover Motor Speedway. He held off Chase Briscoe on old tires, leading a total of 67 laps. Briscoe and Alex Bowman rounded out the top three. Here's a look at the full finishing order. NASCAR standings: Results of Cup Series race at Dover Motor Speedway Denny Hamlin, No. 11 Chase Briscoe, No. 19 Alex Bowman, No. 48 Kyle Larson, No. 5 Ty Gibbs, No. 54 Chase Elliott, No. 9 Bubba Wallace, No. 23 Ryan Blaney, No. 12 Chris Buescher, No. 17 Brad Keselowski, No. 6 Kyle Busch, No. 8 Tyler Reddick, No. 45 Michael McDowell, No. 71 Joey Logano, No. 22 Austin Dillon, No. 3 Austin Cindric, No. 2 Justin Haley, No. 7 Christopher Bell, No. 20 Ryan Preece, No. 60 Ty Dillon, No. 10 John Hunter Nemechek, No. 42 Zane Smith, No. 38 Ricky Stenhouse Jr., No. 47 Riley Herbst, No. 35 Todd Gilliland, No. 34 Daniel Suarez, No. 99 Erik Jones, No. 43 Josh Berry, No. 21 Cole Custer, No. 41 Shane van Gisbergen, No. 88 Noah Gragson, No. 4 William Byron, No. 24 Ross Chastain, No. 1 J.J.

NASCAR takeaways: Denny Hamlin outlasts Chase Briscoe during double-OT Dover race
Here is Denny Hamlin's Sunday story. 'Things were going pretty well there before the rain,' he said on the TNT broadcast after winning the Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 400 at Dover Motor Speedway. 'Then, obviously, had to endure.' For a long time. With 17 laps to go, Hamlin was the leader separating from second-place Christopher Bell when the caution flag emerged for Ross Chastain. With 14 to go and the race still under yellow, the rain hit. Action stalled for an hour, all while Hamlin waited in first place. He even had enough time to change his sweat-soaked suit. When the restart finally arrived with eight laps remaining, Hamlin outgunned Bell, only for Bell to spin and bring out another caution. Another yellow flag waved during the first overtime period, and Hamlin, on old tires, maintained his lead in double OT. He beat Chase Briscoe by 0.31 seconds. Alex Bowman snatched third. 'It was tough,' Hamlin said. 'Those guys gave me a run for it, no doubt about it. But this whole Progressive Toyota team just did amazing.' The victory is the 58th of his Cup Series career and his third at Dover. It's his fourth win of the season, which tops the circuit. In total, Hamlin led 67 laps. Chase Elliott led a race-high 238. He won Stage 1 and slotted sixth. Bell claimed Stage 2. What else happened? Let's break it down. 1. NASCAR In-Season Challenge bracket trims to 2 drivers It's a battle of Ty. NASCAR's inaugural In-Season Challenge is down to two drivers: Ty Dillon vs. Ty Gibbs. Dillon settled into 20th at Dover, edging John Hunter Nemechek, who followed in 21st. With a fifth-place finish, Gibbs defeated Tyler Reddick, who ended up 12th. As the 32nd seed, Dillon was the final driver to make the field. He now has survived four rounds to advance to the finals. Gibbs is a six seed. A prize of $1 million hangs in the balance. 2. Joey Logano breaks Richard Petty record In one category, Joey Logano is now The King. He broke Richard Petty's record for youngest driver to reach 600 career Cup Series starts. Logano is 35 years, one month and 26 days old. Petty's high mark was 35 years, seven months and 23 days. It stood for 52 years. Others who cracked the list before the age of 40: Kyle Busch (36 years, four months), Jeff Gordon (38 years, 11 months) and Kurt Busch (39 years). Logano placed 14th Sunday. Dover is a notable place for him. In May 2008, he debuted on the national stage, taking sixth in a Nationwide Series race at the Monster Mile. His first Cup start came at New Hampshire that September. Logano still has a long way to go to reach Petty's record of 1,184 career starts. Petty is also the only driver to win his 600th start. 3. NASCAR schedule: Next up, Cup Series is Brickyard-bound Prepare to hear the word "historic" over and over again in the coming week, as NASCAR visits Indy for the 32nd Brickyard 400 at, yes, historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Well, not exactly the 32nd, considering those three recent years when they raced on the Indy road course. The weekend begins with the Truck Series, which returns after a three-week break in the schedule. The trucks race Friday night at Lucas Oil Raceway, several miles west of Indy. Saturday, all the focus moves to Gasoline Alley, the Yard of Bricks and the "Racing Capital of the World," as the Xfinity Series presents the Pennzoil 250. The Brickyard 400, Race 22 of the 2025 Cup Series season, caps the weekend Sunday and completes TNT's five-week run of broadcasts. The green flag will fly at 2 p.m. — Ken Willis contributed to this story This article originally appeared on The Daytona Beach News-Journal: NASCAR results today: Denny Hamlin is Dover race winner

Kyffin Simpson rides two-stop strategy to breakthrough first IndyCar podium
entered Sunday in need of some help to make the most of the day after just missing out on the Fast 12 in qualifying. Rolling off 13th, his No. 8 team knew it would need to get creative to find a way to the front. Thankfully for the group, a slate of early cautions opened the door for strategic variation. Simpson took advantage for his first IndyCar podium. Kyffin Simpson, Chip Ganassi Racing 'It was a crazy race,' Simpson said afterward. 'So many ups and downs. At one point we thought we were in the worst position, then very quickly it turned to one of the best positions. All the glory to God. (My crew) did an incredible job on pit road today. …. Just incredible.' As one of many starting on the alternate tire, Simpson stretched the rapidly-degrading rubber a full 16 laps while most came in on the opening laps or under caution on lap 4. While risky, it allowed Simpson's team to put him on a two-stop pit strategy that, aided by a slew of yellows over the opening half of the race, was made favorable and easily doable on fuel. Kyffin Simpson, Chip Ganassi Racing With the rest of the field coming in for an extra stop, Simpson was able to cycle through to second entering the race's middle stages. He never saw the lead — Rinus VeeKay was ahead as the lone driver on the same strategy and Pato O'Ward overtook them both for the win. But the 20-year-old avoided putting a wheel wrong and rode the strategy out for a third-place finish. While a feel-good result on its own, Sunday's effort also came with a sigh of relief. Simpson had qualified third and come close to a podium run in Mid-Ohio only to see it undone late when he stalled on pit road and ran over tire changer Nico Don's foot. He finally saw a complete run come together two weeks later in Toronto. Kyffin Simpson, Chip Ganassi Racing 'At Mid-Ohio I was really bummed, because realistically we could have even won that race,' Simpson said. 'To not even be on the podium, I was super bummed there. To come back here and get it done is incredible.' Kyffin Simpson, Chip Ganassi Racing With Sunday's podium, Simpson finally has a noteworthy result amid a summer of solid runs. While overshadowed by the heroics of winning teammates Alex Palou and Scott Dixon, Simpson has put together four top 10 runs in the past seven races and made it to the checkered flag in each race, rising from 21st to 14th in the championship standings.
