Christopher Bell was the last NASCAR Cup Series driver besides Shane van Gisbergen to win on a road course at the Circuit of the Americas early this year and he backed that up at the Charlotte roval where he started seventh and seldom ran worse than that all day. Although he never quite worked his way into the lead, Bell was in a tight battle with SVG and Larson in the middle stages of the race and he was able to follow Larson around SVG before he eventually worked his way past both Larson and Bell again. Bell looked like he might finish second after Larson made a late pit stop, but Larson was able to work his way past Bell on the penultimate lap. Nonetheless, as expected Bell pretty easily advanced to the Round of 8 and now sits eight points behind his teammate Denny Hamlin for the NASCAR Cup Series points lead.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
