NASCAR 2023: Final results for Wurth 400 at Dover Motor Speedway

The 2023 NASCAR Cup Series Wurth 400 is finally done and dusted. The 11th race of the season started at 12 noon on Monday (May 1) after the event was rescheduled from Sunday to Monday due to steady rain on its scheduled date. The race took place at Dover Motor Speedway, with a total of 36 entries, and lasted for three hours, 27 minutes, and 47 seconds.

Martin Truex Jr., driving the #19 Toyota Camry for Joe Gibbs Racing, clinched his first win of the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series season despite starting 17th in the 36-car field. He worked his way forward and finally took the lead for the first time on 332 of 400 laps before running away from the rest of the field to take the checkered flag.

The 2017 NASCAR Cup Series champion, who led the final 69 laps, showed the strength of his #19 Toyota over the closing miles without a serious challenge. He crossed the finish line 0.505 seconds ahead of Ross Chastain to earn his fourth win on the one-mile track. The win marked his 32nd career Cup victory and first since a victory at Richmond on September 11, 2021, ending a 54-race winless streak.

Meanwhile, Ross Chastain, who chased Truex Jr. over the closing mile but couldn’t challenge for the lead, finished P2, followed by Ryan Blaney, William Byron, and Denny Hamlin in the top five.

Christopher Bell, Tyler Reddick, Brad Keselowski, Chris Buescher, and Josh Berry (substitute for the injured Alex Bowman) completed the top 10.

The Wurth 400 saw 19 lead changes among eight drivers and witnessed seven caution flags.
