Allgaier Locks In Chase Top Seed | Nascar News

Justin Allgaier pulled off a jaw-dropping last-lap pass in double overtime to win his sixth race of the season at Atlanta Motor Speedway, locking himself into the top seed for the Chase playoffs and clinching the regular-season championship. The race was a chaos-filled spectacle, featuring a record 13 caution flags and 4 red flags that shattered momentum and turned the field into a demolition derby. Contenders like Jesse Love and Austin Hill were eliminated in the final laps, with Love channeling Tony Stewart’s grit as he eyes a playoff run. Allgaier now holds a commanding lead, but the battle for the final playoff spots is far from over — drivers like Brent Crews and Taylor Gray are clinging to slim hopes with just three races left. With the series taking a breather before Indianapolis, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
