Chase Briscoe took a backup car from the rear of the field to the win in Sunday’s Xfinity Series race at Dover International Speedway.
The win is Briscoe’s sixth of the year, breaking his tie with Austin Cindric for most victories this year.
“Awesome car,” Briscoe said on the radio to his team after the race. “Way to work.”

“We haven’t won in a month and a half but it feels like five years,” Briscoe told NBCSN. “We’re kind of back where I feel we were at the beginning of the year. Truthfully, I feel like today was the most dominant car we’ve had all year long.”
