Martin Truex, Jr<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/u><\/span> had never won a Dover Cup race going into the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Gander RV 400 this weekend. Officials tried for several hours to get the race started Sunday, getting as far as the parade laps before rain started back up, causing a postponement until Monday.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Truex had to start at the back of the field after failing pre-race inspections several times and was able to overcome this adversity to follow Joey Logano\u2019s win in Stage 1 with the Stage Two win. Truex was strong enough to lead second place finisher <\/span><\/span>Alex Bowman<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/u><\/span> in his <\/span><\/span>Hendrick Motorsports<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/u><\/span> Number 88 by more than nine seconds. <\/span><\/span>Chip Ganassi Racing<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/u><\/span>\u2019s <\/span><\/span>Kyle Larson<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/u><\/span> looked to start turning his luck around by climbing the ranks to a third place finish. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
