Kyle Busch wins NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race at Dover

Ty Majeski stayed within striking distance of Kyle Busch throughout the final run of Friday's NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race at Dover Motor Speedway, but Busch saved enough gas and held on to score the 69th win of his Truck Series career. 

It's the second Truck win of 2026 for Busch, who is in the midst of a 105-race winless drought in the NASCAR Cup Series. Busch now has five Truck wins at Dover. 

Busch led 147 of 200 laps from the pole and swept the stages. 2026 is now the 18th season in which Busch has won multiple Truck Series races. 

"You never know when the last one is," Busch told Fox Sports. "I know all too unfortunately with the Cup stuff. Love coming to Dover, always one of my favorite places to race."

Notable Dover finishers

Majeski, Layne Riggs, Kaden Honeycutt and Christopher Bell rounded out the top five, with Brandon Jones, Christian Eckes, Corey LaJoie, Jake Garcia and Justin Haley completing the top 10. 

Other notable finishers include Chandler Smith in 12th, Brenden Queen in 13th, Ross Chastain in 18th, Ben Rhodes in 19th and Gio Ruggiero in 20th. 

Honeycutt has a 38-point lead in the standings after Friday's race over Layne Riggs, who took second from his Front Row Motorsports teammate in Smith.
