Concord, N.C. - Ross Chastain won the Coca-Cola 600 and the Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday night at the Charlotte Motor Speedway, becoming the first driver to win the race after winning the race.

William Byron won the first three stages, leading 283 laps, but surrendered the lead to Chastain, who led 40 in his first NASCAR Cup series, leading just eight laps.

It was a huge driving force for racing in the track house and was very disappointed with Charlotte native Byron, who signed a four-year contract with Hendrick Motorsports on Friday.

Byron became the first driver in the first three stages of NASCAR's longest race, but found himself fighting Denny Hamlin's last 100 laps. They exchanged lead several times, and then both drivers held 52 laps for a gas.

However, Hamlin didn't get enough fuel in the car and had to fall into controversy again. He will end 16th place.

Chastain ran in the spare car, and Byron won with his sixth Cup and first title. Briscoe ranks third in pole position.

Kyle Larson's days ended the way to start in Indianapolis 500, a wreckage.

Larson arrived at the Indianapolis 500 more than an hour before the race started and after a second attempt at completing a "twins" he arrived at the Charlotte Racing Circuit via helicopter.

In North Carolina, he started in the front row, ran to an early lead, and then hit the wall on lap 38.

After a few laps, his car loosened, causing him to spin in front of the front and took out the first warning flag of the race. But Larson was able to regain control of the car and prevent further damage to his No. 5 Chevrolet before heading to the pit for adjustments that forced him into the field.

But Larson is trapped in the wreckage involving Ryan Blaney, Chase Briscoe and Daniel Suarez and sent him behind the wall. He ended No. 37.

Johnson exports early

Jimmie Johnson bid for a record-breaking fifth Coca-Cola 600 victory ended in Phase 2, when he wreaked havoc on his No. 84 Toyota and knocked him out of the game when he hit the wall in the fourth round. The seven-time Cup series champion ended in No. 40.

"I made a rookie mistake," Johnson said. "The traffic situation in this car is different and my reaction is not supposed to be done."

Half time tribute

Following tradition, the driver pulled the car down Pit Road to a complete silence as part of Memorial Day weekend to “honor and remember” those service members who died.
