Todd Gilliland Nabs First Top-10 Finish Of Season After Bumpy COTA Race
3 hours agoIt wasn't an easy race day in Austin, Texas for Front Row Motorsports driver Todd Gilliland, but in the end, he got the finish. Gilliland was the highest-qualifying Ford for this weekend's EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix but quickly ran into issues on the first lap of the race when Chase Elliott got spun out by Ross Chastain. Gilliland was an innocent victim in that mishap as well. After Sunday's race, Gilliland posted, "Finished 10th here at COTA. Started 10th finished 10th but definitely it's not that easy. Lost all of our track positions in corner one; the 9 [Chase Elliott] got spun and I just parked it right there with him. Felt dumb about that and then from there just battled." This was Gilliland's 11th top-10 finish of his career and first of the 2025 season. He has an average result of 17.3 through the first three races this year and sits 19th in points.
