Live: Monday's Dover NASCAR Cup race

Sort by
Well that's a wrap from Dover, thanks for joining us and we'll see you next time!
Truex: "I promise you it wasn't easy, it was tough, but this racecar was just incredible."
Truex's right-rear tire blew out, damaging his fender. Good luck with checking that in R&D... Especially given their inspection issues that led to the back-of-the-grid start!
Your finishing order: Truex, Bowman, Larson, Harvick, Elliott, Jones, Logano, Byron, Bowyer and Kyle Busch.
Taken a little while for the Truex/Pearn axis to settle at Joe Gibbs Racing, but their form today has been ominous. And coming so soon after Richmond success.
While it's been an epic drive from the back to the front by Truex, shout out also to Byron - who is heading for eighth place from the back too.
Harvick is pressuring Larson for third. Larson just had a big twitch coming off Turn 4.
Bowyer is keen to buy into this, and Kyle Busch isn't far behind too.
Good fight between Logano and Byron now, they have been inseparable for much of the race.
Despite Truex's late dominance, Elliott will have led most laps of this race.
A lot of cloud cover right now. No threat of rain, but significant to the track temperature.
Suarez rejoins in 12th but he's got fresher tires than everyone now.
Truex now leads by 3secs from Bowman, Larson, Harvick, Elliott, Jones and Logano.
Suarez pits. So the next 12 cars get to unlap themselves.
Still no sign of that yellow that Suarez is praying for...
One change of position during this phase has been Jones passing Logano for net sixth.
Almirola pits, so it's just Suarez out on his lonesome.
Truex gets his lap back from Johnson. Suarez is still ahead of him, though.
Elliott closing on Harvick now – they were the class of the field earlier, but well away from that now.
Four cars still haven't pitted: Suarez, Johnson, Kyle Busch and Almirola. If there's a yellow now, they'll be laughing, having trapped the rest of the field a lap down!
Larson passes Harvick, that's significant. Bowman had already done so.
All the leaders pitting, with Johnson staying out to lead a lap.
Truex pits from the lead, Harvick and Bowman stop too.
