Corey Heim Stuns NASCAR World with Richmond Truck Victory as Ty Majeski’s Dominance Crumbles

In a breathtaking showdown at Richmond, Corey Heim snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, marking his seventh triumph of the 2025 NASCAR Truck season. The young star capitalized on a chaotic final restart, overtaking Sammy Smith to secure the win and further cement his position at the top of the playoff standings. “I was very inconsistent,” Heim reflected after the race, acknowledging the fierce competition. “Obviously, the 98 [Majeski] was the best truck. I’m sure he got damage there and it slowed him down. We had some get away from us like that this year, and this is one that redeems that a little bit.”

The race began with Majeski asserting his dominance, quickly overcoming Heim from pole position. He set a blistering pace, lapping up to the 12th place truck and effortlessly clinching the Stage 1 victory. However, the tides turned dramatically in the final stages of the race. Daniel Hemric faced early trouble with his truck, ultimately retiring from the race, while the tension mounted around Majeski as he appeared to be on a collision course for an uncontested win.

As the final stage commenced, Kaden Honeycutt made a daring three-wide maneuver for the lead, but it was Majeski who maintained his grip on the top position. Despite his commanding lead, the scene shifted dramatically when Matt Crafton, attempting to unlap himself, collided with his teammate Majeski, sending both trucks careening off the track in a shocking twist of fate. The yellow flag waved, trapping numerous contenders a lap down and creating a chaotic scramble for position.

With Majeski’s prospects fading, Sammy Smith inherited the lead, leaving Heim and Layne Riggs to strategize their next moves. The restart was nothing short of intense, with Heim seizing the opportunity to pass Majeski and then racing past Smith to claim the lead with only 20 laps remaining. In a display of sheer determination, Heim held onto his lead to clinch victory, marking his 18th career win.

In a stunning turn of events, Jake Garcia secured the final playoff spot, edging out two-time series champion Ben Rhodes, while Majeski, once the frontrunner, limped across the finish line in a disappointing second place, his truck bearing the scars of the earlier incident.

Heim continues to prove himself a force to be reckoned with in the NASCAR circuit, as he prepares to compete in the upcoming Cup race on Saturday, starting 32nd in the No. 67 23XI Racing Toyota. With this latest victory, the NASCAR community watches eagerly to see how the playoffs will unfold, as the stakes have never been higher!
