NASCAR Results Today: Briscoe wins overtime thriller at Talladega to lock into Championship 4

Chase Briscoe will have the chance to race for a NASCAR Cup Series championship for the first time at Phoenix next month after a stunning overtime victory at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday.

The race in Alabama marked the penultimate race in the playoffs' Round of 8, with Briscoe emerging victorious in overtime ahead of Todd Gilliland, Ty Gibbs and Bubba Wallace to take his first-ever superspeedway victory and, more importantly, lock himself into the Championship 4.

Briscoe had been battling the Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolets of Kyle Larson and William Byron until the very final moments of the race, both of whom started on the front row when the flag went green for overtime. However, Larson would go on to run out of fuel on the very last lap, opening the door for Briscoe, whilst Byron went on to wreck just meters ahead of the finish line, having fallen to fifth.

Speaking on the frontstretch post-race, Briscoe was very thankful to his teammate, Gibbs, who he felt was crucial in getting him across the line.

Elsewhere, on a day that saw 10 drivers unable to finish the race, there were big playoff implications in terms of points, none more so than for Chase Elliott in the No. 9 Chevrolet, who was caught up in a multi-car wreck in stage one and retired from the race due to damage.

The Hendrick Motorsports star was classified as finishing 40th as a result and is now massively up against it heading to Martinsville and next weekend's elimination race.

The same can also be said for Byron (-36), Joey Logano (-38) and Ryan Blaney (-47), all of whom are significantly behind the cutoff line after Talladega.
