The 2022 Crayon 200 was the 18th stock car race of the 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series, and the 32nd iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, July 16, 2022, in Loudon, New Hampshire at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, a 1.058 miles (1.703 km) permanent oval-shaped racetrack. The race took the scheduled 200 laps to complete. At race's end, Justin Allgaier, driving for JR Motorsports, took the lead late in the race, and earned his 19th career NASCAR Xfinity Series win, along with his third of the season.[1] To fill out the podium, Trevor Bayne, driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, and Brandon Brown, driving for his family team, Brandonbilt Motorsports, would finish in 2nd and 3rd, respectively. Landon Cassill and Noah Gragson initially finished 3rd and 4th, but were both disqualified after the race, as both of their cars were too low to the ground.[2]
This was the debut race for the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series driver, and the former contestant on the 26th season of the CBS reality show, Survivor, Julia Landauer.[3]
Background
[edit]New Hampshire Motor Speedway is a 1.058-mile (1.703 km) oval speedway located in Loudon, New Hampshire, which has hosted NASCAR racing annually since 1990, as well as the longest-running motorcycle race in North America, the Loudon Classic. Nicknamed "The Magic Mile", the speedway is often converted into a 1.6-mile (2.6 km) road course, which includes much of the oval.
The track was originally the site of Bryar Motorsports Park before being purchased and redeveloped by Bob Bahre. The track is currently one of eight major NASCAR tracks owned and operated by Speedway Motorsports.
