Mayer hangs on against Herbst for Homestead Xfinity win

“The win at Saturday’s race secured Mayer’s spot in the Championship 4 at Phoenix in two weeks, making him the first driver to do so. Several title contenders, including Cole Custer, encountered issues during the race, allowing Mayer to take the lead. Riley Herbst made a late charge and came close to catching Mayer, but fell short by 0.227 seconds. This victory, Mayer’s fourth of the season, is his first on an oval track. With only one race left to qualify for the Championship 4, Justin Allgaier, Sammy Smith, Chandler Smith, and Sheldon Creed are in danger of being eliminated. Cole Custer led every lap in Stage 1 and held off Mayer to claim the win. Derek Kraus won Stage 2, and after a wreck involving Chandler Smith and Brett Moffitt, Mayer took the lead. With 53 laps remaining, Custer hit the wall and had to pit, allowing Mayer to regain the lead. NASCAR had to throw a caution for a loose tire on lap 164.”
