The 2022 Wawa 250 Powered by Coca-Cola was the 23rd stock car race of the 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series, and the 21st iteration of the event. Due to inclement weather, the first half of the race was held on Friday, August 26, 2022, and the second half was held on Saturday, August 27, in Daytona Beach, Florida at Daytona International Speedway, a 2.5 miles (4.0 km) permanent D-shaped superspeedway. The race was increased from 100 laps to 118 laps, due to several NASCAR overtime finishes. In a chaotic and wreck filled race, Jeremy Clements, driving for his family team, Jeremy Clements Racing, scored the upset win after taking the lead when the final caution came out on the last lap. [1] This was Clements' second career NASCAR Xfinity Series win, and his first of the season. Ironically, it was also the same date that Clements won his first Xfinity Series race, the 2017 Johnsonville 180. Noah Gragson mainly dominated the race, leading 52 laps before being wrecked out. The final podium consisted of Timmy Hill, who finished a career best 2nd place finish for MBM Motorsports. Despite damage to the front of his car, A. J. Allmendinger, driving for Kaulig Racing, would finish in 3rd. The rest of the top 10 consisted of Brandon Brown, Sage Karam, Ryan Vargas, Ty Gibbs, Alex Labbé, J. J. Yeley, and Kyle Sieg, with most drivers earning a career best finish. [2]
