RACE RECAP

Layne Riggs delivered a commanding performance in the MillerTech Battery 200 at Pocono Raceway, converting a 1st-place starting position into a trip to victory lane. The No. 34 led 25 laps on the day and scored 75.5 fantasy points. The margin of victory was 3.640.

Tanner Gray (No. 15) finished second, while Kaden Honeycutt (No. 45) completed the podium in third. The stage battles added another layer of intrigue: Layne Riggs captured Stage 1 and Corey Heim won Stage 2. The race featured 7 lead changes among 4 drivers โ€” Corey Heim led a race-high 48 laps but couldn't convert track dominance into the victory. Long green-flag runs put a premium on tire management and setup, as the track surface evolved throughout the race.

The biggest mover of the race was Daniel Hemric (No. 19), who charged from 19th to 5th โ€” a gain of 14 positions that made the No. 19 one of the top fantasy value plays. Chandler Smith also impressed, climbing from 15th to 7th.

The race wasn't without drama โ€” 4 drivers failed to finish. From a fantasy perspective, Layne Riggs led all scorers with 75.5 points, followed by Kaden Honeycutt (48) and Tanner Gray (41).
