After qualifying third for Sunday's FireKeepers Casino 400, Stewart ran in the top-five for most of the race. He never led a lap, but he was keeping pace with polesitter and race winner Joey Logano.
After being beaten in the XFINITY Series race the day before on the final lap, Kyle Busch's run of poor finishes continued today in the Irish Hills as his engine let go and caught fire early in the race.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. didn't have the best of days in the Irish Hills after a wreck in the early stages of today's race. Rounding Turn 2, the driver of the No. 88 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet threaded the needle of AJ Allmendinger and Chris Buescher. Buescher got loose and clipped the left-rear corner of Earnhardt. This got Earnhardt loose and sent him up into the left-front of Allmendinger.
After seven months of going without a win, Joey Logano returned to the victory circle with a dominant performance in the backyard of the American automotive industry. The driver of the No. 22 Team Penske Ford led 139 of the 200 laps on his way to winning the FireKeepers Casino 400.
Overjoyed with emotion in scoring his maiden victory at the NASCAR level, Daniel Suárez said, "I just have no words. I don't think I could speak English or Spanish right now."
"Really, really solid finish here in Texas today. Awesome qualifying run by our guys, we were top-20 in practice both days. Today, getting that good qualifying run was a good motivational booster for our crew guys to show that we can qualify up there.
