Ty Gibbs qualified on the outside front row alongside polesitter Kyle Larson at Texas, but he fell to 13th in what was an extremely topsy-turvy afternoon. Gibbs fell to 8th after the first round of green flag pit stops because he pitted several laps later than the other leaders, then fell to the back after a loose lug nut on his next pit stop. He periodically cycled back into the top ten on pit strategy but never completely made it back to the front and eventually finished 13th. Because all three of his teammates also had issues, Gibbs ended up having the best finish for his grandfather's team, but Denny Hamlin certainly outran him. Gibbs continues to have solid speed, though, as he ranked sixth-best in speed at Texas and ranks seventh-fastest for the season, but his racecraft and his passing ability do not yet match his speed.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
