NASCAR Official Extended Highlights: Tempers flare at Darlington Raceway | Goodyear 400

Green flag from Darlington Raceway and the Goodyear 400 is [Music] underway Tyler reic wasted no time as keslowski slides up in front of Gibbs to secure the second spot in turn Kyle Larson update- Lap 35 four the next part of this equation we know Larson's fast we just noted it all right they're starting to catch lap traffic it'll be another lap and reic the leader will be in lap traffic now he's going to be mired in traffic and that'll be kow's opportunity to pounce he better hurry right the car right behind these two cars Kyle arson watch his line Clint when he goes into the entry to the corner he's got a little bit higher entry see how he's off that apron right there in a turn one and he used uses that to get that straight line up off the corner he's already see how he turns down earlier into turn two well when he goes into turn three right here he's going to go in above that top scene and now that he's catching traffic he may come down he may not be close enough to do it yet but when he was behind the 54 he would ride that Rim right there and turn it off the wall but until he gets close when he gets closer he'll turn that car off the wall and drive off Street look at this they're going to get William Byron and Kyle Larson pass Tyler Reddick after pit stops him boys these guys are getting passed who are they getting passed by short pitting you got Byron in the lead by the way Byron somehow got around the five and Pit Road that's why you pit early how will you pay the price on the back side of these runs and that this this is when it becomes difficult right because you got to run that whole long run um all the way I mean it's going to be 50 plus laps so you never know with these guys they might decide to to split it up again but um that's going to be a long ways if we run the whole Ty Gibbs leads the Goodyear 400 on lap 46 run Ty Gibbs takes over the lead of the Goodyear 400 45 laps in after one round of green flag pit stops Kyle Larson Kyle Larson takes the lead on lap 79, Ty Gibbs brushes the wall passing Tai Gibbs here to take over the front spot Tai was having trouble getting around Carson hos far in front of him and lson caught him pretty quick put the pressure on him got into turn three Gibbs got loose the rest is history yeah and that's real real easy to do in that corner we'd actually um it's a very common problem no matter what car you drive getting loose in into turn three the way that you carry the speed in and it has kind of a little bit of swell getting into the corner kind of a ridge that you go over now taking a Ryan Blaney top 10 update look at stage points Ryan blay remember he was 18th before theit Pit Stop Cycle he ran the first 45 laps before coming in he's up into the top 10 so a gain of eight with that strategy well both of these guys right here bubble Wallace and Ryan bling were the guys that that stayed out the longest so you know I think that that lap time difference in the new tires old tires it just became a little bit easier to make up that track position with what they gave up at the end of that that last first cycle last Kyle Larson wins Stage 1 at Darlington lap stage one Larson holding station uh behind Chase Elliot so as not to put his Hendrick Chevy teammate a lap down he'd still get his lap back on the free pass but he'd have to pit with the lap down cars and start tail end so good strategic move here this will be larsson's seventh stage win of the Season he only had eight in of 2023 so he is on great Pace as he rounds off turn four in that great throwback scheme to Terry Leon's 96 Championship look at this guys six beat him out 45 didn't Tyler Reddick wins the race off of pit road to start Stage 2 have to move much where's he at plus three that number one box there it is Kevin number one box all Green Flag -
