Hill wins his third consecutive Xfinity opener at Daytona

While other NASCAR Xfinity Series drivers raced and crashed in the United Rentals 300 at Daytona International Speedway, Austin Hill was playing a different game: Monopoly.

Hill won his third straight Xfinity season opening at the World Centre of Racing, a 2.5-mile superspeedway about two miles from Atlantic Avenue, by 0.591 seconds over former teammate Sheldon Creed. The third victory occurred on Monday night due to weekend-long rain, which caused NASCAR to reschedule the race from Saturday afternoon. The event was the second leg of a doubleheader with the Daytona 500, which was postponed from Sunday and eventually won by William Byron.

Hill has held Victory Lane at Daytona for long enough to build a house there.
