Grant Enfinger arguably dominated a race that lost a lot of laps to cautions. Look at this lap speed chart of his:

Visually that looks like, what, half the race impeded in some way by the fact that a caution happened when you factor in restart laps?

This was Enfinger's first win of the year and fifth in the last three years. He does not have a good track record on super speedways. In the thirteen super races he's run since 2020, he's finished in the top ten only thrice. Since the Atlanta reconfiguration, he's been involved in seven cautions in nine races.

However, he's having a good year — a hot streak at least half a decade and running:

Go Grant Enfinger
A post of appreciation for a truck series great.

I may discuss him a bit more in detail in the future, but a quick callout for Taylor Gray, who placed second in this race:

Taylor Gray Continues to Progress
Taylor Gray is 19, in what Lap Raptor calls his age 18 season (Lap Raptor seasonal ages based on a driver’s age on February 15). He’s been driving trucks since his age 15 season. Look at these monotonically increasing stats: * ARP: 20.81 → 14.84 → 12.26 → 11.28 * AFP:

Driver Start Finish ARP PGAE GR-LR
Grant Enfinger 4 1 2.38 11.67 5.29
Taylor Gray 5 2 15.40 14.02 1.35
Daniel Dye 35 3 16.29 24.78 1.60
Rajah Caruth 13 4 12.79 13.21 1.24
Lawless Alan 16 5 8.60 21.32 3.01
