Following this, Chastain, a driver renowned for his hard-charging and sometimes excessively assertive driving style, was effectively forced out of the race. Concurrently, Larson’s car suffered significant damage from the encounter, causing him to drop down the ranks into the twenties.

By the end of the day, Larson had to settle for a disappointing 20th-place finish, while Chastain was even further behind in 29th.
