Who won the NASCAR race today?

Ryan Blaney took home the checkered flag on Sunday, outpacing Chase Elliott to pick up his third win of the year.

Things looked rather hairy for Blaney earlier in the final stage, who fell back after NASCAR controversially went from caution to green then back to caution with Blaney and William Byron at the front of the pack.

Blaney overcame the hurdle, slipping beyond Elliott in the final few laps to capture the win at Martinsville — and give himself a chance at back-to-back Cup Series crowns.
