Your 2025 Richmond Race Report features a redeeming win, heartbreak for 23XI, and a lot of Toyota pit road troubles. Plus Chase Elliott breaks his top-20 streak and his no-DNF streak, which leaves the series with no driver having successfully finished all races running.

Lead Changes
Eleven different drivers led laps at the 2025 Richmond race. Many of the contenders, however, faced problems.
- Pole sitter Ryan Preece lost his brakes after leading the majority of stage 1.
- a dust-up with the No. 99 and No. 54 cars ruined Tyler Reddick’s chances.
- Bubba Wallace’s pit crew failed to secure a tire and the resulting time lost/penalty put him out of contention.
The table below shows the numbers of different types of lead changes.
There were nine green-flag changes for the lead, as measured at the start/finish line. NASCAR reports 38 green-flag changes for the lead if the loop data is included.
