After an eight-month winless streak, Christopher Bell secured a victory for Joe Gibbs Racing at Atlanta Motor Speedway, resetting their win counter to zero.

Bell’s win was his ninth in the Next Gen era, surpassing Denny Hamlin as the top winner for Joe Gibbs Racing, signaling a positive start and promising future for the team.
