Martin Truex Jr. just did not quite have the lift needed to keep up with Chase Elliott or Kyle Larson on Sunday. As a result, he was passed late in the race by Elliott and had to settle for third -- more than six seconds back of Larson. Truex Jr. did finish the best out of the Joe Gibbs Racing Drivers (3rd, 4th, 5th, and 7th). He did enjoy a nice, dominant run in the middle of the race, As a matter of fact, the No. 19 did win the second stage and led the most laps (34). It was that final run that saw Truex Jr. just lose chunks of time. In the final nine laps alone, he lost nearly five seconds on both Larson and Elliott. Can that be corrected in time for next week?--Chris Wassel - RotoBaller
