Ryan Blaney was leading the final lap of the race with his teammate Austin Cindric in 2nd, about to make it a Team Penske 1-2 finish, but sadly, Blaney ran out of gas, making Cindric lead the final lap and win the first points race for Team Penske, and Blaney falling back to finish in 24th. Cindric's win would mark his first win (and second in his career) since the 2022 Daytona 500.
