The Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway delivered a finish that had everyone on the edge of their seats, and Chase Elliott stole the show with a last-lap pass that left Denny Hamlin fuming. A bold four-tire call by Hendrick Motorsports set Elliott up to storm from outside the top five on the final restart.
As Hamlin and Bubba Wallace slugged it out for the lead, Hamlin shoved Wallace into the wall in Turn 4, opening the door for Elliott to pounce. The No. 9 Chevrolet kept its momentum, slipping past for the win. “Everything worked out perfectly for me,” Elliott grinned post-race.
“The seas kind of parted and I kept my momentum up… We had pretty good tires compared to those guys.” His cheeky “ Hope y’all enjoyed that” was a nod to the chaos that handed him the trophy. Hamlin ,
