Ross Chastain wins NASCAR Echopark Automotive Grand Prix in Texas
Sunday brought a full day of action at the racetrack on FOX.
Drivers went to work at Circuit of the Americas on Sunday for the Echopark Automotive Texas Grand Prix, the fourth and final Cup Series race of the month.
Ross Chastain battled through, taking the lead at three different points in the race before ultimately getting his first career win.
Here are the top moments from Austin:
Legend in attendance
One of the most iconic wrestlers in WWE history was in attendance on Sunday. The Undertaker made an appearance on the track before the race began.
Early lead
Daniel Suarez made his presence felt early, jumping out to a quick lead.
Spin cycle
Kyle Busch got turned around on the track, becoming the first driver to face some adversity on Sunday from Chase Elliott.
Bad news for the leader
Suarez was the winner of the first stage, and he was having a strong day before he got turned around and needed to replace a tire.
Too fast, too furious
Neither Ross Chastain nor Austin Cindric wanted to concede an inch on this race to pit road.
Staying in front
After taking the lead, Chastain was able to maintain it with the help of a flawless pit crew.
Short stay
Ross Chastain held the lead, but Chase Briscoe stole it from him like a thief in the night.
Wheels … off?
A wheel rolling on the track is usually a good sign, as long as it is attached to a car. That was not the case when Bubba Wallace lost a tire.
Regaining the lead
Chastain had briefly lost the lead, but he wasted no time getting it back and putting himself in position for a strong finish.
Crisis averted
A wreck is never a good thing. Luckily for all involved, this one wasn't as bad as it could have been.
For a third time
Ross Chastain performed like a driver that wouldn't be denied, constantly retaking the lead when he lost it. He managed to take the lead at three different points in the race.
And was ultimately victorious due to that perseverance.
