FireKeepers Casino 400 at Michigan International Speedway.
Christopher Bell began the day on the pole but his chances to win would end in the second stage after getting loose going for the lead. The start of the race was delayed due to showers.
Bell was hardly the only driver to crash. Kyle Busch exited the race on lap 14 after losing his car trying to pass Ryan Blaney. On lap 34 Chase Elliott would crash due to a tire going down.
Martin Truex Jr. won the first stage which saw William Byron crash into the wall at the end of the stage something the driver of the No. 24 deemed as a mistake on his part. Truex would fall to the back of the pack for pitting while the pits were closed.
On lap 74 a caution came out for rain.
