Entering Richmond, there was a dark cloud over Austin Dillon as memories returned of the controversial 2024 finish, where he intentionally wrecked two cars on his way to winning the race. His actions then forced NASCAR to remove him from the playoffs, but this time, there was no drama for the No. 3 as he dominated the final stint of the race.

Ryan Blaney made things difficult for Austin Dillon at Richmond Raceway, as the RCR driver admitted in his post-race remarks.

Austin Dillon managed to take home his second straight NASCAR Cup Series win at Richmond Raceway tonight, a year after his controversial victory in the 2024 race.

Eyes are on the playoff bubble with two races before the Cup Series postseason begins, but is a massive upset looming Saturday at Richmond?

With just two races before the NASCAR Cup Playoffs begin, Richmond race on Saturday night is HUGE. In one of Richmond Raceway’s 2024 races, Austin Dillon won on the final lap after spinning leader Joey Logano in turn three and then hitting Denny Hamlin as they exited turn four, putting him into the outside wall.

Denny Hamlin reacted to Dillon’s move, saying that even though the former had been reckless on track himself, he had never done anything like that to win. Joey Logano, however, pulled no punches, slamming Dillon for his antics.
