The 2025 Bank of America Roval 400 at Charlotte Motor Speedway

It's the final road course of the year, and also the final race in the round of 12. A few drivers are going to struggle to get above the cutline today, folks. With two back-to-back chicanes-one on the backstretch and one on the frontstretch-plus the vicious turn 7. Come on, Charlotte, your making this impossible. Oh well, it's good entertainment and that's all that matters. Speaking of entertainment, let's dive into some of the greatest events in the Bank of America Roval 400.

When the green flag flew, Kyle Busch had trouble in the first turn. He went hard into the tire barrier, resulting in significant damage for the RCR Chevrolet. The yellow never came out, so a troublesome year continued for the number 8 car. 

The Roval proved to be an issue for playoff driver Austin Cindric, who was spun in the frontstretch chicane after being banged by the 77 car of Carson Hocevar. Hocevar locked up the tires in turn 15, causing him to miss the chicane and hit Austin Cindric in his right rear tire. Cindric spun his Menards Ford, and his back end came on to the race track, resulting in minor damge for Riley Herbst. Cindric broke his toe link in the accident, and it was later reported bent his control arms. This ment the 2 was out of the race and out of the playoffs.

On the exit of turn 5, the number 3 car of Austin Dillon hit the tire barrier very hard, and some of the tires were bumped out of their normal positions. None of them went on the track, though, but it still forced NASCAR to throw the yellow flag.

When the white waved, SVG was leading at the roval, and Larson and Bell were trying to catch up with him. But let's just say, when SVG gets in front, there isn't anyone that can stop him. And SVG doesn't stop anyway, at least when he wins the Roval! But that's not all, Ross Chastain needed to make up one more spot to get in the playoffs, and he completely dive bombed Hamlin in turn 16, spinning them both. Then both drivers proceeded to finish the race in reverse!

Well, no more road courses for the rest of the year, and this year is almost over. Hey, at least I get three months off from writing articles. See you guys next time.
