Austin Hill dominated the NASCAR Xfinity Series Bennett Transportation and Logistics 250 at the Atlanta Motor Speedway by leading 146 of the 163 laps and claiming his first victory of the early 2025 season. Hill, driving the No. 21 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, with the support of the race sponsor, showcased his prowess at his home track. Despite briefly losing the lead on a restart with three laps to go, a timely push from Parker Retzlaff helped Hill regain the lead on the final lap. This win marked Hill’s fifth Xfinity Series victory at Atlanta, tying a record set by NASCAR Cup Series champion Kevin Harvick. Hill’s teammate, Jesse Love, had won the pole position, leading to a weekend sweep for RCR with pole and race wins, making it the 99th Xfinity Series victory for Richard Childress’s team.
