Denny Hamlin won NASCAR'S Dixie Vodka 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway Sunday night.

This was the first NASCAR race to have fans since returning from the coronavirus shutdown, but it was only a few hundred military personnel invited from nearby Homestead Air Force base.

In two exciting Xfinity races over the weekend, Chase Briscoe held off Brandon Jones at the finish line to claim the victory in Sunday's Contender Boats 250 NASCAR Xfinity series race at Homestead-Miami Speedway. The race had numerous delays.

Jones took second while Ross Chastain took third and his teammate AJ Allmendinger finished fourth. Fifth went to Noah Gragson.

Briscoe finished seventh in Saturday's race. But he had to run Sunday's race without his fulltime crew chief and car chief after penalities were leveled from infractions Saturday.

In Saturday's Hooters 250, Harrison Burton won on a restart with two laps remaining. There were 23 lead changes in the race. Dale Earhardt Jr. finished fifth.
