Ryan Blaney won the rain-postponed and crash-filled Coca-Cola 600 on Monday, ending his NASCAR 59-race winless streak.
It is the eighth consecutive career victory for the driver of Team Penske. Pole sitter William Byron finished second and was 663 seconds behind. Martin Truex Jr. was third.
In a 600-mile race, there were 16 cautions and 31 lead changes.
Blaney's most recent win was in August 2021 at Daytona International Speedway.
Charlotte Motor Speedway's race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway has been the 14th in the cup series and the longest NASCAR race of the season.
The practice and qualifying sessions on Saturday were also canceled because of the rain, so the starting lineup for the race was set per the rules book a metric based on performance at the Darlington Raceway two weeks ago.
Alex Bowman, who returned to competition a month ago after he suffered a fractured vertebra in a sprint car crash, finished 12th.
Seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champ Jimmie Johnson started in last, 37th, and finished there, 285 laps behind the winner.
