Chase Elliott takes victory in Bristol Motor Speedway’s first ever NASCAR All-Star race

Bristol Motor Speedway welcomed thousands of fans back to the track for last night’s All-Star race for one of the largest spectator events since the start of COVID-19 pandemic.

30,000 tickets were allotted and although official attendance figures are not required to be released, reports say there were around 20,000 fans in the stands. It also marked just the second time in the racing series history that the sports All-Star event took place somewhere other than Charlotte.

Chase Elliott took the checkered flag and the million dollar prize, joining his father Bill who also won the All-Star race in 1986.
