A week after Kyle Larson won the closest-ever NASCAR race at Kansas Speedway, the NASCAR circus rolled into South Carolina, and the Darlington Raceway, for the Goodyear 400.
After 249 laps it was Brad Keselowski who won the Goodyear 400 and dominated Darlington. This was Keselowski’s first win of the season and his first win in 110 races, this was also Ford’s first win of the 2024 season.
Behind Keselowski was Ty Gibbs and Josh Berry in second and third place. Then further back Denny Hamlin and Chase Briscoe finished in fourth and fifth place.
Rounding out the top ten this weekend were William Byron, Bubba Wallace, Alex Bowman, Justin Haley and Michael McDowell.
After 90 laps it was Larson who took victory in the opening stage of the race after controlling the opening stage/grabbing the lead of the race just before the end of the stage to get 10 extra points.
Stage two saw a completely different strategy as Reddick took victory in the penultimate stage of the race gaining 10 extra Championship points. This stage was dominated by caution flags and safety car periods.
