Bristol Dirt results, points

eaOwCH_XwSCg
Kyle Busch snapped a 25-race winless streak by winning the Food City Dirt Race at Bristol Motor Speedway.

Kyle Busch snuck through late-race contact between Tyler Reddick and Chase Briscoe to score the win on the dirt at Bristol Motor Speedway on Sunday night.

Reddick led 99 of 100 laps in the final stage but was spun by Briscoe on the final lap in Turns 3 and 4. Reddick righted his No. 8 Chevrolet quickly but not fast enough to beat Busch to the finish line.

The top five was completed by Busch, Reddick, Joey Logano, Kyle Larson and Ryan Blaney. Alex Bowman, Christopher Bell, Chase Elliott, Michael McDowell and Ty Dillon made up the top 10. Briscoe fell to 22nd after his spin.

Several big names struggled in NASCAR’s lone dirt race of the season. Austin Dillon (31st), Ross Chastain (33rd) and Denny Hamlin (35th) all suffered engine failures and did not finish. Kurt Busch and Kevin Harvick were both caught in on-track incidents and finished 32nd and 34th respectively.
