Ryan Blaney won the NASCAR Cup Series Quaker State 400 at EchoPark Speedway in Hampton, Georgia on July 12, 2026. The race didn’t cross the finish line until 3 a.m.<\/p>\n

A three-hour rain delay pushed the event deep into the night. NASCAR restarted at 12:01 a.m., and drivers faced a late-night sprint to the checkered flag that tested everyone’s nerves\u2014both on and off the track.<\/p>\n

Blaney, driving the No. 12 BODYARMOR FLASH I.V. Ford, made his move on the final lap to take the win. He beat Bubba Wallace’s No. 23 Columbia PFG\/Academy Sports Toyota, along with Christopher Bell, Carson Hocevar and the rest of the field.<\/p>\n

Wallace came home second, but a penalty dulled the finish. He was penalized for crossing the yellow line and advancing position\u2014a move that cost him dearly in a race decided by mere feet.<\/p>\n

The 3 a.m. checkered flag highlighted just how unpredictable summer racing at EchoPark Speedway can be. William Byron finished 16th and remains without a win this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
