Despite last week’s race at the iconic North Wilkesboro receiving a mixed response from the community, the following race at Charlotte Speedway was a runaway hit. Being the longest race in the Cup Series calendar, the race had all the elements.

It had action in plenty—16 crashes, late-race cautions, a perfect ending, and as it looks, a deeper meaning for Blaney’s sister, Erin Blaney. As the #12 Mustang held off a vicious chase from the Hendrick Motorsports Chevy, Blaney prevailed as he successfully rallied in the final stage of the race.

Closely following the Ford was Erin Blaney’s boyfriend and the Darlington winner, William Byron, in his #24 Chevy. As NASCAR lauded the great display of sportsmanship between the drivers, online fans on the other hand cherished the closer connection between the two.

Erin Blaney posted an Instagram story wishing her big brother, Blaney, and her boyfriend Byron as she mentioned the #24 driver, “and love my other boy @williambyron.”

The victory not only was much needed for Team Penske but a bold statement from Ford.
