NASCAR Results Today: SvG stars again as Kyle Larson suffers Watkins Glen nightmare

Shane van Gisbergen’s road course dominance was on display once again at Watkins Glen International on Sunday, with the Kiwi star taking his fourth NASCAR Cup Series victory of the season.

Although he was not always at the front at the end of stages one and two due to electing to pit when some of his rivals did not, van Gisbergen was in contention for the overall win throughout, ultimately ensuring he was the man on top when it really mattered and the black and white checkered flag was flown.

The Kiwi is now the first rookie to ever win four Cup Series races in a season, bagging even more playoff points for when the postseason kicks off at Darlington later this month.

Behind van Gisbergen, Joe Gibbs Racing star Christopher Bell secured second place with a last-lap pass on Chris Buescher, who came home third in the end. William Byron and Chase Briscoe rounded out the top five.

Elsewhere at Watkins Glen, it was a miserable day for Kyle Larson, with the No. 5 having gone for a spin early on and Larson complaining of having 'no brakes' over the radio.

As the first stage ended, the No. 5 was in the garage undergoing repairs, but Larson did eventually make it back out on track, although with a lack of cautions throughout the race, he finished 39th and 15 laps down on the race winner.

With that said, let's take a look at the full results from Watkins Glen, including from stages one and two, which were won by Chris Buescher and Ryan Blaney, respectively.
