Kyle Busch, Ross Chastain, Bubba Wallace and Brad Keselowski were eliminated from championship contention on Sunday.
So when he cried a little when he won Sunday on the Charlotte Motor Speedway road course, few who knew Allmendinger were surprised.
He had won the last four races in the Xfinity Series on the Charlotte road course, so he entered Sunday knowing a win was quite possible. He started sixth."There's just a lot of nuances and technique you got to use in different parts of the racetrack, and I've just got a good feel for it," Allmendinger said.
"I was trying to do what the car gave me," Busch said."I was overstepping that a couple more times again, but I didn't crash, which is good. ... It's bittersweet. I hate it. It rides on me.""We did everything we could — we can't be mad at that," Wallace said."We weren't supposed to be in the playoffs. We weren't supposed to be in the Round of 12."Regular-season champion Martin Truex Jr. advanced despite a 20th-place finish.
