- David Malukas rebounded from a heavy practice crash and a hospital visit to start 25th, lead 59 laps and charge to a hard-earned third-place podium.
- The race was unusually active on track, recording 395 total passes, 246 passes for position and 11 lead changes among seven drivers, with multiple cautions forcing teams to adapt strategy.
- Kyle Kirkwood started on pole and led 24 laps but lost track position when a yellow flag came out while he was pitting and recovered to finish 10th.
