KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) – Joey Logano held off teammate Kyle Busch on two late restarts to win the Nationwide Series race at Kansas Speedway.
Logano got past Busch on a restart with six laps remaining in Saturday’s race, but a crash by Aric Almirola brought out a caution flag a lap later.
Logano knew holding Busch off on the final restart would be difficult, but a huge push from points leader Brad Keselowski gave him the run he needed to break free of Busch.
It was the second Nationwide win of the season for Logano and 16th of the season for Joe Gibbs Racing.
Keselowski finished second and Busch faded to third. Kevin Harvick and Martin Truex Jr. rounded out the top five.
