In the closing laps at Richmond Raceway on Easter night, it appeared a Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota would be taking the victory.

In the end, that is what happened. But it was not the driver anybody expected.

The caution brought every lead lap car down pit road, where Denny Hamlin gained two positions to take the lead. Meanwhile, Truex dropped to second.

Joey Logano finished second, while Larson recovered to take third over Truex.

Hamlin credited his team for the victory.

“All pit crew. This is a team win for sure,” Hamlin said. “This trophy needs to go to each one of these pit crew member’s houses. They’ve been killing it all year.”

Truex, meanwhile, was frustrated after the win slipped away from his grasp. He expressed frustration with his teammate on the cooldown lap and after getting out of the car.
