NASCAR Cup Series

BRAD KESELOWSKI – No. 2 Miller Lite Ford Fusion – “The team did a good job. We executed in qualifying and all of those things, and we really made the most out of everything we had today, it just didn’t come out our way.” CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE LAST PART OF THE RACE? “It just didn’t come together there at the end, but it was nice to lead a bunch of laps."

KYLE LARSON, NO. 42 TARGET CHEVROLET SS – RACE WINNER - ON THE RESTART “I was running a few options through my head of what to do if I got a good jump, and that was one of them and it worked out perfect. I can’t believe that happened. We were struggling all day. We were definitely not as good as the last two times we won here, but we preserved and had a great restart at the end.

Kyle Larson extended his Michigan International Speedway win streak to three by passing the Furniture Row Racing drivers in overtime of the Pure Michigan 400.

Go Fas Racing announced today that driver Matt DiBenedetto and crew chief Gene Nead will return to the No. 32 Can-Am Fusion in 2018.  DiBenedetto, along with team general manager Mason St. Hilaire, held a press conference to answer questions.

“You have to run so hard here that if the car slips it’s around and gone.  I ran a half a second faster today in practice than I did in qualifying yesterday.  So, with the grill open and tires on low pressure and all that, especially these morning sessions with overcast clouds you just run so hard that when something happens, it’s gone.”

Michigan native Brad Keselowski will lead the field to the green flag for the Pure Michigan 400 on August 13 after winning the pole with a speed of 203.097 mph. It marked his first pole in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series at his hometown tack.

BRAD KESELOWSKI – No. 2 Miller Lite Ford Fusion – YOU WERE BAD-FAST THAT LAST ROUND: "Yeah. Paul Wolfe and my team, they kept dialing in on the car and kept working on it. I've got goosebumps. It feels really good to run well here at Michigan. This is my home track. A lot of fans here. I have to put my glasses on so nobody can see me. Really cool. Really special."

KYLE LARSON, NO. 42 TARGET CHEVROLET SS, met with members of the media at Michigan International Speedway and discussed racing sprint cars, how he is getting from Michigan to Knoxville to race tomorrow, regaining momentum heading into the playoffs and many other topics. Full Transcript:
