DARLINGTON, S.C. — Martin Truex Jr. held off a late charge from Kyle Larson to win the Goodyear 400. Truex led 248 of 293 laps in a dominant performance, becoming the first stage winner to also win the race at Darlington.
Larson was second, and rest of top five was Kyle Busch, William Byron and Denny Hamlin.
Over the final 20 laps, Larson closed to withing a half second of Truex, who had been ahead by more than five seconds for most of the final stage. Larson made up two seconds on the final pit stops, and appeared to be stalking the lead, but Truex found another gear in the final five to pull away for his third win of the season.
