Chase Elliott triumphed in a late-race shootout Sunday, May 3 in the NASCAR Cup Series race at Texas Motor Speedway, appropriate for a track where the winner traditionally celebrates in victory lane with a cowboy hat and a pair of six-shooters.
The Hendrick Motorsports driver edged Denny Hamlin by 0.407 seconds following a restart with four laps remaining in the Würth 400 for his second win of the season and the 23rd of his Cup career. One month ago at Martinsville Speedway, Elliott also topped Hamlin to capture his first victory of 2026.
