In the final lap of the Playoffs elimination race at Martinsville, Ross Chastain knew that he needed a miracle, so he used some creativity.
In the Playoff elimination at Martinsville, Ross Chastain made one of the biggest moves in NASCAR history by “wall-riding” around the last turn to grab a berth in the Championship 4.
The top 4 racers would progress to the championship race in Phoenix on Sunday, while the remaining four racers would be disqualified, while Trackhouse Racing’s Chastain was below the bubble.
In the last semi-final race at Martinsville, Chastain was in 10th position going into the 500th and last lap and needed to move up during the 20-second lap.
He had to think outside the box, and that’s precisely what he did by “wall-riding” around Turns 3 and 4, moving up to sixth and then fourth as Brad Keselowski was later eliminated.
With the victor of Martinsville, Christopher Bell, 2020 victor Chase Elliott, and champion Joey Logano, it guaranteed him a spot in the championship race.
Hamlin, with whom Chastain has had numerous run-ins during 2022, called the strategy “amazing,” but he was a touch irritated given how long he has been trying to win the Cup.
The amazing video, which even Dale Earnhardt Jr. had never seen before, can be watched down below.
