NASCAR Cup Series

In NASCAR’s longest race of the year, veteran Matt Kenseth and the No. 6 Wyndham Rewards team battled back to manage a 17th-place finish in Sunday night’s race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Brad Keselowski started fifth in the 400-lap event and faced adversity early in the race. He wrestled a loose handling Stars, Stripes and Lites Ford during Stage 1 and lost track position when he missed his pit stall during a sequence of stops under caution on lap 85. In an effort score stage points, he remained on the track for the final 12 laps of the segment but was no match for those on fresher tires, finishing Stage 1 in 26th position.

At the same track that he made his first Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series (MENCS) start at in 2011, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. overcame adversity to score a career best 10th-place finish at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Martin Truex Jr. overcame two penalties to finish second in Sunday night’s Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The Furniture Row Racing driver crossed the finish line 3.823 seconds behind race winner Kyle Busch.

Camry driver Kyle Busch was victorious at Charlotte Motor Speedway on Sunday night as he became the only Cup Series driver to win at all active NASCAR tracks.

KEVIN HARVICK, No. 4 Mobil 1/Busch Ford Fusion - Finishing Position: Retired after hitting the wall on Lap 83 - ANY INDICATION WHY THE TIRE WENT DOWN? “No, we stood in the garage and looked at it and I can’t tell if we ran something over. There’s enough things that could have happened right there, but I’m just really proud of everybody on our Mobil 1/Busch Ford."

JIMMIE JOHNSON, NO. 48 LOWE’S PATRIOTIC CAMARO ZL1 – Finished 5th - HOW DO YOU ASSESS THE IMPORTANCE OF HOW GOOD THIS TOP FIVE FINISH FEELS? “It feels good, but damn I want to win. I’m tired of running fifth, I’m tired of running whatever it is."

CONCORD, N.C. — Kyle Busch conquered Charlotte Motor Speedway Sunday night leading 377 of 400 laps and making history as he became the only driver to win at every track on which he has started.

RODNEY CHILDERS, Crew Chief, No. 4 Mobil 1/Busch Ford Fusion – CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED AND WHY YOU DIDN’T GET THROUGH INSPECTION? “I think it’s something that’s been building throughout the year and at some point you had to get back control of it. There were some things in the garage that basically the template side of it wasn’t getting used and straight edges weren’t getting used and we were just purely going off the OSS, and that was fine until it somewhat starts getting out of hand."

Kyle Busch won the Busch Pole Award for Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway with a qualifying lap of 191.836 mph. This was his third pole of the season and the 30th of his career. It's the first step for Busch as he attempts to capture his fourth win of the season at Charlotte, the only track on the Cup Series schedule where he has not won a points-paying race. He has the second-best driver rating (104.9) at the 1.5-mile track with 11 top fives and 16 top 10s.
