William Byron led the NASCAR Cup series championship fight for a majority of the first 200 laps of Sunday’s finale. However, despite being one of the season’s most dominant drivers, he ended up finishing third in the final race. Byron expressed his disappointment, stating that they struggled on short tracks and needed more speed. Despite this, he acknowledged that they had a great season overall, with solid races and good communication as a team. Byron finished fourth in the race after starting from the pole and leading for 95 laps. He believed they were the best before the track rubbered in but struggled once they lost clean air. The race’s final caution had him running third among the championship contenders, but he was overtaken on the restart and could only watch as the title race unfolded in front of him. Despite the disappointment, it was a career year for Byron, with six victories and a career-best third place finish in the standings.
