The conclusion of Saturday’s NASCAR Xfinity Series Sport Clips Haircuts VFW 200 at Darlington Raceway was something to behold. Unfortunately, a late red flag meant NBC had to send the finish of the race to NBCSN as the start of the Kentucky Derby coverage was looming.
If you missed the finish of the race, here is the absolute insane circumstances that led to Denny Hamlin and Ross Chastain — who battled for the lead for more than 15 laps — missing out on the win.
Let's look at the final 7 laps.
What a battle between @RossChastain and @DennyHamlin, and a surprise win by @BrandonJonesRac. #NASCARThrowback #XfinitySeries pic.twitter.com/p5B5Zvn6oj
