William Byron: 10
Other cont🐼enders may have gotten taken out, but Byron ran inside the top-five all afternoon and was able to capitalize when the opportunity came.
Kevin Harvick: 9
Despite gꦺetting caught up in the big wreck at the end of the race, Harvick 𝓰was able to recover with a runner-up finish.
Chase Elliott: 9
H🥃e didn't have the car to win, but Chase looked the most comfortable in the car sinc🐬e returning from his injury, and delivered a 3rd place finish.
Brad Keselowski: 8
The entire RFK Racing organization continues to i🦋mpress, and the co-owner is ⛄often leading the charge, just like today.
Bubba Wallace: 7
After leading the first lap, i꧃t looked like Bubba might be in contention for the win, but it was still a solid t꧑op-five for the 23XI Racing driver.
Harrison Burton: 9
Easily Burton's best race of the season, but it will be interesting to see i💟f the legendary single-car team can carry any positive moℱmentum over next week.
Kyle Busch: 6
Another ꦕpotential victory slipped away with another mistake on pit road by the veteran driver.

Justin Haley: 7
A great run for Haley, who was able to take advantage of the misfortune tha♏t other drivers endurﷺed.
Ryan Blaney: 6
Another top-ten run, but mistakes on 𝔉pit lane and contact with other drivers on the track aren't ꦆwhat Team Penske were hoping to see.
Chris Buescher: 8
Both RFK Racing carꦚs🃏 inside the top-ten once again.
Todd Gilliland: 9
A legitimate top-15 run nearly turned into a top-ten at the end, as Gilliland continues to be one of the best underdog 🥃stories 🐈in NASCAR.
Denny Hamlin: 6
Given Hamlin's past performances at Darlington, this was somewhat🤡 disappointing for the driver of the No. 11 Toyota.
Ricky Stenhouse Jr: 8
Stenhouse w🍬as showing that his sensational qualifying effort was no fluke. It was a shame that his top-five run went out the window when a flat tire sent him spinning late in the race.

Christopher Bell: 7
Bell also had a stroke of bad luck at the worst possible time. He had to come back down pit road to fix a ܫloose wheel after his initial pit s🎉top put him on the front row with 12 laps remaining.
Ty Gibbs: 6
A quiet day for the ro𝔉okie, which isn't always a🎃 bad thing.
Chase Briscoe: 7
After a poor qualifꦦying performance, Briscoe did a nice job of maneuvering his way through the field.
Joey Logano: 5
The No. 22 team has been ou🌳t to lunch over the last 🦄few weeks, which could be a cause for concern.
Austin Cindric: 5
Just another mediocre run for Cindric, as Team Pens🔥ke looks for answers.
Kyle Larson: 9
Battling with Chastain for the lead typically doesn't ♍e♛nd well for the other driver, which was the case again today.
Tyler Reddick: 7
It was a rough race for Reddick, who got ran into by Blaney early in the day, then got caught up in the big ꧒accident near the end of the race.
Ross Chastain: 4
More of the sam𒆙e from 𒆙Chastain, who keeps running well, but also running into other cars.
Martin Truex Jr: 2
His day of domination quickly went south after his contact with C🔯hastain as they battled for the Stage 2 victory🦹. A disappointing result for arguably the best car at Darlington this weekend.
