Wins Cook Out 400 Dillon won the Cook Out 400 NASCAR Cup Series race at Richmond Raceway Sunday night.

Impact The two different tire compounds made this an interesting short track race. Dillon had a strong car and showed it all night. He would take control late, taking the lead from Denny Hamlin with 28 laps to go. A late caution would force an overtime restart. Dillon would battle with Joey Logano and lose the lead on the white-flag lap. However, the driver of the No. 3 Chevrolet would rally back in turn 4 and spin Logano and drive past for the victory. It was Dillon's first win of the season and fifth-career victory.

Tops Richmond Practice Dillon was fastest in Happy Hour practice for the Cook Out 400 NASCAR Cup Series race at Richmond Raceway Saturday afternoon. He turned a fast lap of 118.953 mph.

Impact A bit of a surprising performance for this driver and team considering their struggles this season. Dillon drove to the top of the scoring pylon after 45 minutes in the Richmond oval. He would edge Bubba Wallace to lead the session. Dillon appears to have the speed to challenge for a Top-5 starting spot later Saturday at Richmond Raceway.

Impact Dillon has been mired in a slump that stretches back into last season. He has not started the 2024 campaign well either and the team has finally made some personnel changes to hopefully spur some improved performance. Alexander takes over at crew chief. He and Dillon have worked in the past and had some good success. The duo have collected four victories and 39 Top-10 finishes together dating back to 2017. Dillon will hope to pull out his slump with the return of his long-time crew chief.
