Austin Dillon beat rookie teammate Tyler Reddick at Texas Motor Speedway yesterday in the first 1-2 NASCAR Cup finish in nine years for Richard Childress Racing. It was Dillon’s third career win and first since the start of the 2018 season. Dillon had to be treated at the infield care center after completing the race due to heat exhaustion.
The race was held before a limited number of fans, an estimated 15,000 to 20,000, who were spread out in the stands. There were also about 20,000 fans at Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee last Wednesday for the All-Star race. Both were the most fans at a sporting event in the U.S. since sports have slowly begun returning from their coronavirus shutdowns.
