NASCAR fans react to Chase Elliott ending his 42-race winless streak at Texas

Chase Elliott snapped a 42-race winless streak with a perfect drive on Sunday.

For the first time since September of 2022, former NASCAR Cup Series champ Chase Elliott is back in victory lane.

Elliott outlasted Ross Chastain, William Byron and Brad Keselowski in a wild finish at Texas Motor Speedway that saw multiple overtime periods and an unbelievable amount of chaos.

Elliott was running out of fuel and only had enough for one more restart, but he managed to take the white flag in the lead before Chastain and Byron wrecked down the backstretch, securing Elliott’s win.

The victory snapped a 42-race winless streak for Elliott, who has been open about his struggles in adapting to the next-gen car. After back-to-back solid finishes at Bristol and Martinsville, Elliott put himself into the playoffs on Sunday and re-established himself as a leading championship contender.
