Overview
- Mason Maggio’s No. 91 Chevrolet, which failed on Lap 194 Saturday near the start of Stage Three, burst into flames as he pulled toward the garage at Bristol Motor Speedway.
- Track safety crews and nearby team members rushed in with multiple fire extinguishers, and Maggio climbed out unhurt and gave a thumbs up on camera.
- The blaze filled the half-mile Coliseum with smoke and spilled fuel on the racing surface, forcing a red flag for cleanup before the race resumed with Kyle Larson in front.
- Maggio said he saw the oil pressure drop on the last restart and that the team lost the motor, with no official cause announced by NASCAR or DGM Racing.
- The failure ended his night with a DNF and a reported 37th-place finish, his third DNF in five starts following a lap-one crash at Daytona and an engine failure at Atlanta.
