Christian Eckes rallies late for NASCAR Truck win at Martinsville
Eckes led the first 100 of the 200-lap race, including both Stage wins, but a one-stop pit strategy left him 19th for the final stage. Racing back into the top 10 with 75 laps to go, he then caught leader Ty Majeski and held him off on a restart to win by 0.644 seconds. This was Eckes’ second win this season and the seventh of his career, all on short tracks. The victory was hard-earned, and he expressed pride in his team’s effort and looks forward to celebrating with the traditional Grandfather Clock. Other notable finishes include Chase Purdy in third, Nick Sanchez in fourth, and Tyler Ankrum in fifth, with Cam Waters making his NASCAR debut and finishing 30th.
