August 10, 2026
Ty Gibbs held off Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Christopher Bell in a dramatic closing battle to win the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series Iowa Corn 350 at Iowa Speedway on Sunday.
Gibbs captured his second victory of the season and the second of his career after a crucial two-tire pit-stop decision helped him take control of the race during the final green-flag sequence, finishing just 0.253 seconds clear of Bell.
Pole-sitter Ryan Blaney completed the podium in third, while Josh Berry delivered a strong fourth-place for Wood Brothers Racing.
Denny Hamlin overcame brake issues and a start from the rear of the field to finish fifth, with Chase Briscoe, Ross Chastain, AJ Allmendinger, William Byron and Austin Dillon rounding out the top 10.
Blaney and Bell claimed stage wins as the former led a race-high 129 laps. Six different drivers led the race: Bell 108 laps, Chastain 40 laps, Wallace 35 laps, Gibbs 20 laps and Elliott 18 laps.
