With already having locked in his Chase birth, there was a simple attitude going into Sunday's race at Las Vegas for Dale Earnhardt Jr. and crew chief Steve LeTarte - do what it takes to win, even if it takes trying out a game.
Three races in, and the story of the 2014 Cup season is the success of Dale Earnhardt Jr. He wins at Daytona, finishes second in Phoenix, and a hiccup in his fuel pick up was all that kept him from victory at Las Vegas. That and Brad Keselowski. Still, take a gamble, have it turn sour, and still come home second is not all that bad.
Brad Keselowski passed Dale Earnhardt Jr. on the final lap of Sunday’s Kobalt Tools 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway to score the victory. Keselowski notched his 11th career NASCAR Sprint Cup Series victory after leading a dominating 52 laps of the 267 laps ran in ‘Sin City’.
Brad Keselowski sailed to victory lane on Saturday after leading a remarkable 144 laps of the 200 laps run in the Boyd Gaming 300 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. He was able to do ‘donuts’ while holding the American Flag for the 28th time in his NASCAR Nationwide Series career and the first time at the tricky Las Vegas track.
After leading final practice yesterday, Ty Dillon survived the Knockout Qualifying format to win the Coors Light Pole for the Boyd Gaming 300 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway with a lap of 29.625 seconds. It marks the first pole for the 22-year-old in his 15th start.
For Jimmie Johnson, Las Vegas is one of the track that he likes to go to each year as he spent a lot of times as a young kid racing dirt bikes in the area.
At Phoenix International Raceway, it was Brad Keselowski grabbing the pole with his Team Penske teammate Joey Logano second. This weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, it was the opposite as Joey Logano grabbed the pole with Keselowski second.
For the first time in his championship-earning career, Kyle Busch led NASCAR’s top division to the green flag from the pole position for the 68th running of the DAYTONA 500.
