Recap of Last Weekend
After earning his second career Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series (MENCS) Coors Light pole award, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. took the lead on the final lap to claim his first career MENCS victory at
Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday afternoon earning a spot in the playoffs.
Stenhouse’s win from the pole, marked the 12th time a Roush Fenway driver has won a race after starting in the pole position and the first time since former driver Carl Edwards accomplished the
feat at Phoenix in 2010.

Stenhouse lined up in the 22nd position and was able to gain three positions in the closing laps to take the checkered flag on the lead lap in the 19th position.
