NASCAR Takeaways: Daytona 500 Winner William Byron Snaps Drought At Iowa

NASCAR Cup Series NASCAR Takeaways: Daytona 500 Winner William Byron Snaps Drought At Iowa Published Aug. 3, 2025 9:43 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link NEWTON, Iowa — William Byron snapped a 21-race winless streak on Sunday afternoon. While a 21-race drought isn't something to sweat over too much, when that last victory was the Daytona 500, there could be a feeling of what could be wrong. The Hendrick Motorsports driver stretched his fuel for the win, once when he certainly needed help after pitting with 144 laps remaining at Iowa Speedway. Knowing he could only run 110 to 115 green-flag laps, Byron took advantage of 50 laps under caution in those final 144 laps on the 0.875-mile oval. William Byron eats corn in celebration in victory lane after winning the NASCAR Cup Series Iowa Corn 350 "We needed to win a race," Byron said. "I feel like we deserved to win a race based on how we've run all year, and it just wasn't happening. "I felt like we had to learn how to do basically everything right, and things were still not really working out in our favor. This is just a big relief to have one kind of go our way. We've just been running so well this year. This is going to be a big momentum boost for our team." Winning a fuel-mileage race possibly erased some demons for Byron and his team, as he saw a couple of potential victories vanish when he ran out of gas late in a race during the summer. ADVERTISEMENT Byron, who had won in NASCAR's feeder truck and Xfinity series at the track, had finished second in the inaugural Cup race at Iowa a year ago. Takeaways from a race where Byron was followed across the finish line by Chase Briscoe, Brad Keselowski, Ryan Blaney and Ryan Preece. Byron Back Atop Standings With the victory, Byron went from four points behind teammate Chase Elliott atop the series point standings to 18 points ahead of Elliott and 45 points ahead of teammate Kyle Larson. Three races (Watkins Glen, Richmond and Daytona) remain in the regular season, and the winner of the regular-season title earns 15 additional playoff points, while second is worth 10 and third is worth eight. Playoff points give a driver a better chance to advance in the playoffs if they don't win a race in the three-race playoff rounds. William Byron and crew spray champagne in victory lane after winning the NASCAR Cup Series Iowa Corn 350 "I respect my teammates a ton," Byron said. "I feel like we learn a lot from one another. We all have kind of our unique driving styles, but we have all kind of morphed into being able to drive this car really well. "It's just cool to see us all compete, and hopefully us on [my team] can put three good weeks together on that end of things." As far as the playoff bubble, there are currently three spots open for drivers without wins. Tyler Reddick has a 122-point edge on the cutoff, while Alex Bowman (+63) and Chris Buescher (+23) are inside the playoff bubble with Ryan Preece (-23) on the outside looking in. Keselowski Comes Up Short Brad Keselowski needs to win to make the playoffs and appeared to be in the best position midway through the race to control the event. But with all the caution flags, his pit strategy didn't pan out as he needed some longer runs. He finished third on a day when he led 68 laps. "When you're in traffic, you just have to use the car harder. And by the end, everybody's tires were just garbage because we had fought in traffic for so long," Keselowski said. "The caution sequence and the way the race played out was not very favorable for us. Brad Keselowski (right) and Chris Buescher walk the grid during practice for the NASCAR Cup Series Iowa Corn 350 "We had good pace and thought we executed pretty well." Keselowski was a little frustrated. "All the wrecks changed the dynamic of the race," Keselowski said. "It was a really sloppy race for the field today. "And it shifted it to where severely alternate strategies won the race. ... I've run into people, so pot calling kettle black, but I don't understand why guys wreck for 20th. It doesn't make a lot of sense to me." Briscoe Backs Up Pole Briscoe won his sixth pole of the season, but in his last three races where he started from the front, he had finished 17th, 23rd and 18th. He backed up his being the fastest in qualifying by leading 81 laps and finishing second, his best finish of the season in races where he started from the pole. Chase Briscoe poses for photos after winning the pole award during qualifying for the NASCAR Cup Series Iowa Corn 350 Briscoe didn't have to save as much fuel as Byron, but with all the cautions and a track where parts of it were repaved in 2024 made it difficult to pass. "Once I got [to Byron], he started taking my air and my car just kind of died as soon as that happened," Briscoe said. "I thought I was going to be able to still be good, especially as he caught lapped traffic there. I still just didn't quite have enough." Bob Pockrass covers NASCAR and INDYCAR for FOX Sports.

Watch record-breaking motorcycle jump: Motocross daredevil Colby Raha soars into history

Colby Raha broke the world record, previously held by Seth Enslow, for longest motorcycle jump as thousands looked on at the Sturgis Rally. STURGIS, SOUTH DAKOTA — Sturgis Motocross daredevil Colby Raha made history on Aug. 2 when he broke the Harley-Davidson distance jump world record, landing a 205-foot jump as thousands of fans cheered on. Raha, 30, shattered the world record on the second day of the 85th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally at the Thunderdome as he zoomed about 80 miles per hour toward a jump ramp. The motorcycle rally is held in the western South Dakota town, and takes place over 10 days. "You don't see anyone else lining up to do this," said Raha, before attempting to break the 15-year record previously held by motorcyclist and stunt performer Seth Enslow. Enslow had owned the record since 2010, when he rode a modified Harley-Davidson XR1200 Sportster and made a world record jump of 183.7 feet in Australia. The jump was first benchmarked by Evel Knievel, a stunt performer and entertainer, in 1975. X Games adds new twist: An artificial intelligence judge for snowboard event After four attempts, Raha successfully soared 205 feet on a 550 pound V-Twin Harley-Davidson Sportster. "This jump at the Thunderdome in Sturgis channeled the spirit of Evel Knievel, an absolute legend of the sport. And I'm beyond stoked to have landed it as part of my Record Breakers event,' Raha said. 'It was a dream to push the limits at the Thunderdome, and I felt really dialed in the whole time. I'm grateful for the support from Rockstar Energy and all the partners who helped make this world record attempt possible.' Raha is known for his debut in 2017, when he won gold at the X Games in Minneapolis for the QuarterPipe High Air. He's earned 11 more medals since competing in the X Games.

Noah Lyles taunted Kenny Bednarek as he won 200 at U.S. track and field championships

EUGENE, OR – Noah Lyles had something to say after winning gold in the men's 200 meters at the U.S. track and field championships. Lyles ran a world-leading 19.63 to get the gold in the 200, but he had to work for it. Lyles was behind Kenny Bednarek at the turn. He pulled even with him with roughly 10 meters remaining. Lyles turned to look at Bednarek as he ran past him with only five meters remaining and continued to stare him down after he crossed the finish line first. Bednarek retaliated by giving Lyles a slight push before the two shook hands. 'Noah is gonna be Noah. If he wants to stare me down that fine,' Bednarek said after the race. 'I'm very confident I can beat him. What he said doesn't matter. It's just what he did. It's unsportsmanlike (expletive) and I don't deal with that.' Sha'Carri Richardson fails to advance to final round of 200 just days after arrest Lyles didn't comment when asked what compelled him to taunt Bednarek. 'It felt really good,' Lyles said following the win. 'If they ain't gonna beat me now, they ain't gonna beat me ever.' It's Lyles fifth national championship in the 200. Lyles said he had no doubt he would be victorious with roughly 80 meters left. 'We came off the turn and I saw how far Kenny was and I was like, 'As long as I can keep him in my pocket then I can catch him,'' Lyles explained. 'We got to the straight away, we passed the 60 meters left mark and I'm like, 'Yeah, I'm coming for him.' He ran out of energy and he ran out of momentum and mine was just starting to hit it.' The 200 has always been Lyles' marquee event despite being the defending world champion in both the 100 and 200 and the Olympic champion in the 100. Noah Lyles vs. Kenny Bednarek didn't disappoint in a tense 200m. 🍿📺 NBC & Peacock USA TODAY Sports was on the ground for the final day of action at the U.S. track and field championships.
