Chase Elliott was able to score his second victory of the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season in Sunday's Wurth 400 at Texas Motor Speedway. The driver of the No. 9 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet was able to come out on top of Denny Hamlin in a four-lap shootout to end the event.

Elliott led a race-high 87 laps, and took the victory by 0.407 seconds over Hamlin. This is the earliest in a season that Elliott has ever recorded multiple wins in a NASCAR Cup Series season.

Alex Bowman finished third, marking a season-best finish, while Tyler Reddick and Chris Buescher rounded out the top-five finishers.
