Todd Gilliland pulled the upset on Chase Elliott at North Wilkesboro to advance to the NASCAR in-season challenge final.
Gilliland will face Ryan Blaney in the final next week at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Elliott was running in the top five for most of the first 180 laps in the Window World 450, but a caution during green-flag cycle set the No. 9's effort back. Gilliland, who had not stopped during the cycle, had not stopped while Elliott was two laps down following a stop. Gilliland finished 8th while Elliott ended up 17th.
Blaney had a long day after starting in the rear of the field, then worked around a late pit-road speeding penalty. Bell struggled outside of the top 10 for most of the day.
Here's the NASCAR in-season tournament challenge results for the semifinals:
