And it got here throughout a weekend by which Billy the Child — William Byron — was giving in tips on how to race an vehicle at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Contemplate his dominance over the course of about 30 hours.
Byron not solely gained Saturday’s Xfinity Sequence race, he swept all three phases. Sunday evening, he gained all three phases once more, however this time, there was a fourth stage, because of the 600 miles that make up the Coke 600. Late in Stage 4, his tires started to go night-night, permitting Ross “The Boss” Chastain
It was similar to what occurred to Willy B final month at Darlington.

Not that he’ll care, however Byron’s near-sweep at Charlotte did bump him to first place in our weekly energy rankings. He’ll absolutely sleep higher realizing that.
1. William Byron
A close to Charlotte sweep has him atop our heap.
2. Christopher Bell
He simply doesn’t have unhealthy weeks. Sunday’s eighth-place end was about as unhealthy because it will get.
3. Kyle Larson
Could ends quickly and we flip to June. Wager he cannot wait.
4. Ross Chastain
Win a race, smash a watermelon, scoop up watermelon, eat some. Perhaps not appetizing to some, however Ross likes it.
That watermelon was getting ripe.
5. Joey Logano
Gained final yr’s race at Nashville. Would possibly imply one thing, won’t.
6. Chase Elliott
Simply filling his factors basket. Ex-Hendrick champ Terry Labonte could be proud.
7. Ryan Blaney
Mixes in too many crashes. Has 4 finishes of thirty fifth or worse.
8. Denny Hamlin
Received again within the combine Sunday earlier than an unfulfilling pit cease.
9. Chase Briscoe
Snuck out a 3rd at Charlotte. Continues to run properly most weeks.
