The leader would never "check up" with open track ahead of him, especially at a plate track; he would not have any reason to do that. That is a guaranteed recipe to get run over.

Leading at a plate track on the last lap or two is often not the best place to be, because the cars behind the leader can get a huge run of momentum. As mentioned earlier, Almirola was trying to block on the last lap. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn't.
