NASCAR Cup Series

Toyota driver Martin Truex Jr. captured his first MENCS victory at Kansas Speedway in Saturday night’s Go Bowling 400. Truex led a race-high 104 laps en route to his ninth career-series win and second victory in the 2017 season.

RYAN BLANEY (No. 21 Motorcraft/Quick Lane Ford Fusion) -- Finished 4th - WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON TONIGHT? “Yeah, it happens I guess. We weren’t very good on the long run. I felt that we had a great short run car tonight and I thought that was going to play right into our hands at the end. The 78 got us on that restart somehow. I don’t know. I was super loose there on the last restarts and the 78 got me spinning my tires a little bit. It kind of stinks. I think that it says a lot about this team to go out and lead some laps and go have a shot and win races.”

In an eventful Go Bowling 400 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series (MENCS) race at Kansas Speedway, Kyle Larson was the first Team Chevy driver to take the checkered flag with a sixth-place finish in his No. 42 Target Chevrolet SS.

Almirola was alert after the accident as safety professionals removed him from the car. He was transported by helicopter to a local medical facility for evaluation. He is in stable condition and will be held overnight for further observation.

A pass for the lead with just over 20 laps remaining in the Go Bowling 400 at Kansas Speedway proved crucial to Martin Truex Jr. on his drive to winning in his team's backyard.

Tonight I don't care about the laser inspection. Tonight I don't care about loose lug nuts. Tonight, I care about the well-being of Aric Almirola.

RYAN BLANEY (No. 21 Motorcraft/Quick Lane Ford Fusion) -- Qualified 1st - IT IS YOUR FIRST CAREER POLE, CONGRATULATIONS. “I didn’t know during the first two rounds if we would have enough. The 18 and 4 were really fast. We got our car better and better each round and that is what you want. That is what we did. We have improved a lot on that this year. Last year I always thought we kind of got worse, if anything, This year has been a big step up in qualifying."
