Joey Logano captured the Cookout 400 at Richmond on August 15, 2026, after starting tenth and leading 96 of the 100 laps, ultimately outpacing Chase Briscoe for the checkered flag.
The field also featured strong showings from Austin Cindric in the No. 2, Denny Hamlin in the No. 11, and Chase Elliott in the No. 9, but it was Logano who dominated the race.

Logano’s ability to control the pace from the early stages highlighted his strategic mastery and reinforced his status as a front‑runner as the season finale approaches.
With two races remaining in the 2026 NASCAR regular season, the victory tightens the championship picture, though the official results are still pending review.
