At Martinsville in 2016, Elliott was able to pass both Kyle Busch and Ricky Stenhouse Jr., who were bumping each other out of the way.
Chase Elliott's last win came at Road America on July 4, but that was a long time ago. This win propelled him to the top NASCAR points standings. Elliott arrived in Dover after completing three straight top-10 finishes.
