RFK Racing had a banner day on Sunday at Richmond Raceway, with Chris Buescher earning his first NASCAR Cup Series victory of the 2023 season and second for the organization. The win also locked Buescher into the NASCAR Playoffs.

Teammate and owner Brad Keselowski led the most laps but a slow pit stop on the second-to-last stop of the day dropped him to sixth.

Denny Hamlin could not take advantage of the late-race restart and finished second, followed by Kyle Busch, Joey Logano and Ryan Preece.
