Austin Dillon reached victory lane Sunday at Richmond Raceway, something he hadn’t achieved since the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season, but Dillon’s win came at a price for two of his fellow competitors. For Joey Logano, who was leading heading into the final Turn of the race, it ended with a 19th-place finish. And for Denny Hamlin, who looked to be skirting his way past Dillon after his aggressive move, the price was a blown-out shoulder after Dillon hooked him in the right rear as the two were charging toward the finish line in the Cook Out 400.
