Brad Keselowski won Sunday’s running of the Foxwoods Resort Casino 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
Aric Almirola began the NASCAR Cup Series race on the pole following the random draw. After just a couple of laps, Brad Keselowski would take the lead as drivers throughout the field skid around the shirt track.
A flat right front tire would send Kyle Busch into the wall on lap 16 ending his day. A competition caution came out on lap 30. Jimmie Johnson would bring out the third caution following a single car spin. Ryan Blaney will assume the lead after not putting on that caution but was soon passed by Denny Hamlin who had fresh tires and would win the first stage.
Rain would ring out a caution early in stage two. Harvick would lose multiple laps on a green flag pit stop after previously staying out on older tires. A caution for a spinning Christopher Bell allows multiple drivers to take the wave around. Their fortunes would turn gold as Matt Kenseth spun laps after the restart. Keselowski would win a two lap shootout to end stage two.
A second flat right side tire would send Kenseth behind the wall early in stage three. Keselowski would hang on in the third and final stage for his third win of the season.
