The '''2024 Xfinity 500''' was a [[NASCAR Cup Series]] [[Xfinity 500|race]] held on November 3, 2024, at [[Martinsville Speedway]] in [[Ridgeway, Virginia]]. Contested over 500 laps on the 0.526 mile (0.847&nbsp;km) paperclip-shaped short track, it was the 35th race of the [[2024 NASCAR Cup Series]] season, the ninth race of the Playoffs, and final race of the Round of 8. [[Ryan Blaney]] won the race. [[Chase Elliott]] finished 2nd, and [[Kyle Larson]] finished 3rd. [[Austin Cindric]] and [[Denny Hamlin]] rounded out the top five, and [[William Byron (racing driver)|William Byron]], [[Austin Dillon]], [[Ross Chastain]], [[Brad Keselowski]], and [[Joey Logano]] rounded out the top ten.

The ending to the race was shrouded in controversy, as [[Christopher Bell (racing driver)|Christopher Bell]] attempted to do a wall ride move, similar to a move [[Ross Chastain]] did in [[2022 Xfinity 500|2022's running]]. NASCAR however deemed the move was a safety violation (the move had been banned at the beginning of the [[2023 NASCAR Cup Series|2023 season]]) and was removed from the Championship 4 in Phoenix; [[William Byron (racing driver)|William Byron]] entered the Championship 4 as a result. Further controversy surrounded allegations of intra-manufacturer [[team orders]] involving [[Austin Dillon]] and Chastain, both driving [[Chevrolet|Chevrolets]], on behalf of Byron.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Chapman |first1=Simon |title=NASCAR playoffs rocked by controversial wall ride, team orders |url=https://speedcafe.com/nascar-cup-series-martinsville-ryan-blaney-wins-christopher-bell-williams-byron-controversy-wall-ride-video-team-orders-results/ |publisher=Speedcafe |date=November 3, 2024}}</ref> NASCAR would later announce that they would further investigate the actions of the No. 1, 3, and 23 teams.<ref>{{ cite web |url=https://www.nascar.com/news-media/2024/11/04/nascar-to-investigate-late-race-martinsville-actions-of-multiple-teams/ |title=NASCAR to investigate late-race Martinsville actions of multiple teams |date=November 4, 2024 |access-date=November 4, 2024 }}</ref>

The 2024 Xfinity 500 was a NASCAR Cup Series race held on November 3, 2024, at Martinsville Speedway in Ridgeway, Virginia. Contested over 500 laps on the 0.526 mile (0.847 km) paperclip-shaped short track, it was the 35th race of the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season, the ninth race of the Playoffs, and final race of the Round of 8. Ryan Blaney won the race. Chase Elliott finished 2nd, and Kyle Larson finished 3rd. Austin Cindric and Denny Hamlin rounded out the top five, and William Byron, Austin Dillon, Ross Chastain, Brad Keselowski, and Joey Logano rounded out the top ten.

The ending to the race was shrouded in controversy, as Christopher Bell attempted to do a wall ride move, similar to a move Ross Chastain did in 2022's running. NASCAR however deemed the move was a safety violation (the move had been banned at the beginning of the 2023 season) and was removed from the Championship 4 in Phoenix; William Byron entered the Championship 4 as a result. Further controversy surrounded allegations of intra-manufacturer team orders involving Austin Dillon and Chastain, both driving Chevrolets, on behalf of Byron.[10] NASCAR would later announce that they would further investigate the actions of the No. 1, 3, and 23 teams.[11]
