The NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series visited Sonoma Raceway on Saturday afternoon in the PitBoss / FoodMaxx 250. Shane Van Gisbergen started the race on the pole, while Brent Crews started second.

Anthony Alfredo won the first stage, and Connor Zilisch won the second stage. In both of those stages, Gisbergen’s team opted for a late-stage pit strategy. There were four cautions for 11 laps. Debris brought out the first caution on the ninth lap, and fluid from Brad Perez’s car on lap 31.

Shane van Gisbergen led a race-high 66 of 79 laps to win his second race of the season by 1.324 seconds over Connor Zilisch. Brent Crews, Anthony Alfredo, and Parker Retzlaff rounded out the top five. Carson Kvapil, Corey Day, Sam Mayer, Jesse Love, and Sheldon Creed completed the top ten.
