Race recap
Kvapil Steals Iowa Victory as Leaders Falter Late
How Carson Kvapil won the HyVee Perks 250
Carson Kvapil captured the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series win at Iowa Speedway, leading only nine of 260 laps but taking the checkered flag ahead of Rajah Caruth and William Sawalich. Ross Chastain led 63 laps and Justin Allgaier a race-high 83, but both faded to fourth and 24th respectively. Kvapil started third and stayed in contention as multiple leaders encountered trouble, securing his second win of the season.
The decisive moment
The decisive stretch came as dominant leaders Justin Allgaier (83 laps led) and Ross Chastain (63 laps led) lost track position late. Kvapil, running consistently near the front, capitalized to take the lead with nine laps led and held off Caruth and Sawalich to the finish.
What the result means
Kvapil's second win of 2026 strengthens his position near the top of the standings, though he remains 238 points behind the leader. The result underscores the unpredictability of Iowa, where late-race execution proved more valuable than leading the most laps.
