Chase Briscoe Scores First Career Top-Five Finish at EchoPark Speedway
Joe Gibbs Racing's Chase Briscoe finished as the runner-up in Sunday's Autotrader 400 at EchoPark Speedway. Briscoe started from the back of the pack in the 34th position and spent the first stage trying to work through the field. At the end of the first stage, Briscoe finished 20th and did not earn any stage points. In the middle portion of the second stage, Briscoe cracked the top five thanks to pit strategy and continuing to make moves through the pack. Briscoe eventually traded the lead with Bubba Wallace a few times during the end of the stage, but settled for third behind Wallace and William Byron, earning eight stage points. In the final stage, Briscoe remained competitive and led the early section. He failed to return to the lead for the rest of the race after lap 200, but he played a role in the finish as he pushed Tyler Reddick to the win on the final restart past Carson Hocevar. Briscoe could not pass Reddick for the win, but set a new career-best finish at EchoPark Speedway in the process with his second-place finish.
