Racing with a broken rib and some wounded pride, Dillon locked into the Cup Series playoffs with a clean run to his second consecutive victory on the 0.75-mile oval.

Richmond becomes the second track with multiple wins for Dillon, who also has two victories at Daytona International Speedway. Aside from winning the 2018 Daytona 500 season opener, five of his six Cup wins have come after entering a race below the playoff cutline.
