By Yash Soni Modified 05 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Erik Jones scored his first win of the 2022 season at Darlington Raceway The 2022 NASCAR Cup Series Cook Out Southern 500 is finally done and dusted. The first playoff race of the season started at 6 pm ET and lasted for 4 hours, 9 minutes, and 49 seconds. It took place at Darlington Raceway, with a total of 36 entries. Driving the #43 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 for Petty GMS Motorsports, Erik Jones, a non-playoff driver, secured his first win of the 2022 season and second victory in the Southern 500. On Sunday night, he grabbed the lead when leader Kyle Busch suffered a blown engine under caution. He then managed to hold off Denny Hamlin for the final 20-lap dash to the finish line to win the Cook Out Southern 500 on 1.366-mile-long tracks, NASCAR’s oldest superspeedway.
