The NASCAR Cup Series arrived at Watkins Glen International for the second race in the Round of 16, and the ending was chaotic.

In the end, it was a non-playoff driver that earned the victory at The Glen.

Buescher was able to pass Shane van Gisbergen on the final lap, as the Kaulig Racing driver wasn’t able to get back to him. It marks the RFK Racing driver’s first win of the 2024 NASCAR season after missing the playoffs.

It was a crazy day at Watkins Glen, with only two playoff drivers finishing in the top 11 spots. Chase Briscoe led the way with a much-needed sixth-place finish. However, Buescher reigns as the winner at Watkins Glen after outmaneuvering one of NASCAR’s best road course drivers.
