JOEY LOGANO, No. 22 Shell Pennzoil Ford Fusion (PIT ROAD INTERVIEW) – “It was a heck of a race up there. I screwed up and hit the wall early and we were able to recover then had the mistake on pit road which didn’t give us enough time to recover from that. It is unfortunate. Execution was our strong point all year and we just didn’t do it tonight. For that reason we finished fourth after I think we scored the most points this whole Chase."
In the final start of his 2014 Rookie Campaign, Dylan Kwasniewski and his No. 31 Rockstar Energy Drink team battled throughout the 200-lap race, ultimately coming home with a 19th-place finish in the NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) series finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
Kyle Larson and his Turner Scott Motorsports team went out with a bang in the 2014 NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) grand finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway, leading 111 of the 200-lap race before two heart-pounding green/white/checkered flag finishes left Larson with a third-place finish.

A strong run in the final race of the Nationwide Series season for Landon Cassill was spoiled by late-race engine problems.

Jeffrey Earnhardt wrapped up his first full Nationwide Series season with a 21st-place finish in Saturday’s Ford EcoBoost 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
The final race of the 2014 NASCAR Nationwide Series was all about small victories for James Buescher and the No. 99 Rheem / RAB Racing team. Throughout the 2014 season, the Rheem Toyota team seemed to run into bad luck everywhere they turned. A solid result in the Ford Ecoboost 300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway would put all that behind them ending into the off-season. Tenth in points was also up for grabs, Buescher came into the final race of the season tied in the driver point standings.
