Austin Hill won’t continue his streak of season-opener victories at Daytona, but his teammate Jesse Love made sure that Richard Childress Racing did.
Love was in front of the pack when the caution flag was displayed on the final lap of the event, granting him his second win in the NASCAR Xfinity Series.
Sam Mayer and Sheldon Creed, teammates at Haas Factory Team, finished second and third, with Carson Kvapil and Taylor Gray rounding out the top five.
