00:00301 laps in front of him.
00:10We are racing in New England.
00:14Chase Elliott drove it in deep.
00:24Slid up all the way to the third lane.
00:26That will make him easily clear in the lead side-by-side behind with Blaney and Bell.
00:38He's looking to take the lead away from Chase Elliott.
00:41Won yesterday's XFINITY series race, his fourth win in four starts here at the racetrack and
00:46now Bell is showing that not only are those Joe Gibbs Toyotas good but his comfort level
00:50is high here.
00:51Elliott ran out to a lead.
00:52It looks like he's getting a little tight especially in the middle of the racetrack
00:55using up a lot of track.
00:57Very efficient around the bottom.
01:00Through three and four, the final time.
01:05And Briscoe looks as though he's going to be able to hang on to a lead lap finish in
01:10stage one.
01:11Christopher Bell, that's his seventh stage win of 2024.
01:15That second most behind Larson who has eighth.
01:18Watch this battle for ninth.
01:2145 of Reddick runs the third lane basically to roll around both of them and Reddick will
01:27get ninth, bowman tenth and Ty Gibbs will get shut out of points.

01:46You're all clear at the bottom.
01:47Here you go.
01:48Go back to this replay of Christopher Bell.
01:49See all that smoke from the left front?
01:50That's quite a bit of a lockup.
01:51He's trying to find a little bit of speed.
01:52The car just doesn't have the grip.
01:53You see the smoke coming out of the pipes.

02:32That sounds worse than I do.
02:33Yeah.
02:34Yeah, Rick.
02:35Not really.
02:36Yeah, Rick.
02:37If you actually think you sound better than that, then...
02:39We're going to listen in to Coleman Presley once again as he will call the start of this one.
02:46Countdown to the mark.
02:475, 4, 3, 2, 1.
02:50Go.
02:52Alright, you're going to get push here.

03:13Still there.
03:14Half to the little joint.
03:15Half back behind him by three quarters.
03:16Nothing in your lane.
03:17Up into the wall in turn two.
03:18And that's Noah Gregson and, oh boy, Kyle Busch.
03:19Kyle Busch has wrecked out of this race.
03:26It's kind of hard to tell.
03:28Kyle got up the racetrack.
03:30Let's listen to Coleman Presley as he brings it back to the green.
03:34Go.
03:35Alright, he's got push here.
03:37Quarterback.
03:38Quarterback in line.

03:41Still there.
03:42Quarter in line.
03:43Top's covered.
03:44Top's covered by Truex.
03:45Top's covered by Truex.
03:46Still there.
03:47Trying to force middle.
03:48Still up there.
03:49One.
03:50Just one.
03:51Just one.
03:52Just Denny.
03:53Just Denny.
03:54Just Denny.
03:55Just Denny.
03:56Still there.
03:57Still there.
03:58And I see what Josh Berry is saying.
03:59He's like, hey, you know, look, from this angle, it looks like the 4 runs the 7 up,
04:03but when he backed it up.
04:05Feels low.
04:06High speed.
04:07It feels like you can just run out there and push your car in the corner and it would spin
04:12out.
04:13Just all right on top of the racetrack.
04:15Just trying to find the best way to get through the middle of the corner.
04:17Where is the edge?
04:18Oh, boy!
04:20Byron saves it.
04:22Lejoie.
04:23That was close.
04:24Bell got stage one.
04:26stage one and now Hamlin. This is his fourth stage win of 2024. Martin Truex Jr. Finishing
04:32in second. Logano, Bell, Blaney. Looks like they will round out the top five. Gilliland,
04:39Larson, Barry, Elliott and Chastain. Right side looks pretty normal. Oh, right side.
04:48You cannot drop the tire without the right rear being tight. Heads up call. Either way,
04:53tough loss for Truex. Usually when it gets within, I think, eight or so, it becomes an
04:57issue. So it could be here, you know, 15, 20 minutes. Here we go, Rick. It's all in
05:02the line. That's right. Green flag is out. Final stage here in New Hampshire. Three wide
05:10per second. Oh, contact between the 22 and the 9 to 9 gets spun around. They were already
05:21up the racetrack. We have to see how that started. But big damage on the 9 damage on
05:27the 22 as well. Right front, not rolling. You think it was a mechanical issue? Let's
05:31see. I don't know. I think I think you just got the left left front locked up, and now
05:37they're just hooked together. That was crazy. Look, but that left front is is. How about
05:44front row guys with McDowell and Todd Gilliland inside the top five? It's a battle here now
05:49for the lead. Oh, the seven of Coral Joy gets spun down the backstretch. No contact
05:54cautions out. Yeah, four wide, and we're being told the 45 of Reddick is scored the leader.
06:06Oh, that's what happened there. Brian Priest was on the outside when joy was trying to
06:09get up there back there behind him. And now we've got McDowell on the inside of that front
06:14row. Green flags back in the air. A fight for position and knowing that weather is imminent.
06:28Every position so important. Five is right on his door. Jeff, not using that higher lane
06:36force in the 11 to turn the wheel in the state lower. And Reddick is loving this. You guys
06:40run side by side for a while, so I can get away from you. Hamlin saw what Larson was
06:44doing running that bottom grade. Now he's trying it, but up the racetrack. All these
06:48guys are shipping it in the corner with tons of Hamlin just runs. Larson out of the lane.
06:59Just contact with he and wreck has lost. I feel like Truex was trying to get his car
07:04turned. Close call there between 11 and 12. And once again, a little contact there out
07:23of Hamlin. Going around goes Kyle Busch again in the eight. Caution comes out on the inside
07:29of the 12. The crowd is looking forward to this restart on wet weather tires in New Hampshire.
07:36They're back under green. Here we go into one. How about Todd Gillen? That bright green
07:5238? He had enthusiasm when we heard from him. He saw this as an opportunity, and here he
07:57is chasing it up to the fence. 34 85 for Reddick that time by Carson Hose of our apron there
08:14right in front of Brad Keselowski and the cost. We got Ross Chastain. Boss was running
08:24in the sixth spot when he got around, and the caution comes out. It looks a little bit
08:36more aggressive than the first restart. And a lot more cars on the apron. Good for Bell
08:48easily goes by the 45 ready to take the lead. Bell, now the leader of the race lane that
08:54has dried. Here's Corey. Corey on the bottom of the racetrack trying to make a pass and
09:00just did not have the grip he was expecting. And to your point about the dry line that
09:07time down the front stretch, Bell swerving like he's trying to get out of the dry line.
09:11We'll see if he doesn't on the backstretch. The leaders. Oh, Gregson, Austin Dillon. Both
09:19around. We saw the 43 of Eric Jones avoiding Austin Cedric in it. 71 also caught up here.
09:27All right, no direction on the bottom of the racetrack. Denny on the outside. The 10 just
09:37comes right around. Takes a 23. Austin Dillon. Then that kind of year for Austin. He is all
09:46right. Nine laps to go. 34 slide. They're going to spin in front of you mentioned aggressive.
10:09Wasn't enough traction. It's overtime presented by Credit One Bank. Two laps to go in the
10:15U.S.A. Today. 301 from New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Get out the broom. The fight for
10:32second continues between Stuart Haas drivers. Little contact made there, but it's going
10:37to be Bell who sweeps the weekend. Christopher Bell. What a day he has done. Good. Now, when
10:45to New Hampshire. How about that, boys? Loud sweep 2024. Only one man could do the double.
10:56That's you, buddy. Great job. Great job, fellas. Proud of you guys. Good job, Bill. Got both.
