[autotag]Ty Gibbs[/autotag] had the best car in the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at the Indianapolis Road Course and that turned into his first win of the 2023 season. Gibbs cruised to an eight-second victory over Sam Mayer and A.J. Allmendinger.
Gibbs held off Allmendinger on the final restart of the event and slowly pulled away. The No. 19 car is not full-time in the Xfinity Series; however, it now has two victories on the season after Ryan Truex won at Dover Motor Speedway. Now, Gibbs needs to carry this momentum into the NASCAR Cup Series race on Sunday as he looks to clinch a spot in the 2023 playoffs.
There are now four races remaining in the 2023 Xfinity Series season with the next event coming at Watkins Glen International Raceway next weekend.
