Busch wins at Pocono
LONG POND — Kyle Busch won at Pocono Raceway on Sunday to move into a tie for ninth on the NASCAR Cup Series victory list.
Busch, who topped 200 career wins across all three national series earlier this season, won for the 55th time in Cup and matched Hall of Fame driver Rusty Wallace on the list.
“Pocono’s been a struggle but it’s a lot better now,” Busch said.
Busch had the dominant car down the stretch and won for the first time in nearly two months.
When he was back in the pack, Busch had no trouble passing the leaders at Pocono.
“I passed one guy on the outside of Turn 3 and that was the only guy I needed to pass, I guess,” Busch said.
Brad Keselowski was second and Erik Jones third.
