In an action-packed Darlington race, Byron took advantage of a late on-track incident between Ross Chastain and Kyle Larson and stayed out front on the final lap to cross the checkered flag in P1.

With the Sunday victory, the #24 Chevrolet driver was awarded with 56 points and moved from ninth to fifth place in the driver’s standings with 387 points, with three wins and six top-five finishes.
