Carson Hocevar Rallies to Fourth At EchoPark Speedway After Early Struggles
Spire Motorsports driver Carson Hocevar finished in fourth in Sunday's Autotrader 400 after an eventful performance at EchoPark Speedway. Hocevar began the race from the 15th position and was working his way to the top 10 until he brushed the wall on lap 32. The No. 77 Chevrolet driver then went to pit road and fell two laps down. Hocevar got one of his laps back through the stage caution at the end of stage one, where he finished 38th. In the second stage, Hocevar got his second lap back and then spent the rest of the stage working back to the top 10. He made it back to the top 10 despite another brush with the wall on lap 153 and went on to finish the second stage in sixth, obtaining five stage points. Despite a couple of pit stops off sequence for the No. 77 Chevrolet driver, he positioned himself for the win by the final restart. After making a few aggressive moves on the final restart that also prevented other drivers from winning like Bubba Wallace, he got shuffled back a few positions and then made it back up to fourth at the checkered flag. This was Hocevar's second top-5 finish at the Atlanta track and his first of the 2026 season.
