Martin Truex, Jr. chose the correct road course pit stop strategy, and it proved to make all the difference as he and the No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota team dominated the 34th annual NASCAR Cup Series Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma Raceway.
After two thrilling races on Friday and Saturday, the time has finally come for the conclusion to an epic weekend: the Toyota/Save Mart 350.
Northern California native Kyle Larson dominated the majority of the DoorDash 250, but a strategic decision by Aric Almirola’s crew chief to keep his driver on the track while the leaders came to pit road under caution with less than 20 laps remaining provided Almirola the opportunity to start up front and earn the NASCAR Xfinity Series victory at Sonoma Raceway.
Sonoma Raceway is set to host its first-ever NASCAR Xfinity Series race in Saturday’s DoorDash 250. Fans have been eagerly anticipating this new event since its announcement last Fall.
NASCAR Cup Series regular Ryan Preece took full advantage of the opportunity to gain experience at Sonoma Raceway in preparation for Sunday’s Toyota/Save Mart 350 by starting from the pole and then dominating Friday’s ARCA Menards Series West General Tire 200.
