The strength of RFK is incredible.
The strength of FK is incredible. The R is done did.
Keslowski should start wearing the hat
Strongest Ford Team right now
Congrats to Buescher, looks like his last Win sparked a fire in him!
Dude I knew Chris was going to be a beast one day he has came up the ranks the hard way and it’s gonna pay off for him in the long run
Does anyone care who wins the first stage?
@Steel Mill buscher won the race
@Steel Mill matters for championship.
Wow a race today with actual racing where a guy didn’t have to dump someone to get the win. Hats off to Truex for racing the leader clean.
you said it
Agreed! This was proper racing.
i’m glad truex got 2nd and not DNF he runs well, long runs he always hammers, he does get some unfortunate luck but after Jeff retired the 24 i went right to Truex because he can start at the back of the pack and always find his way up. glad that he’s polling first for the playoffs he’ll make it.
yep hell of a driver
Congratulations RFK Racing an another win for #17 Chris Buescher keep up this momentum
Congrats FK Racing!
Chris is criminally underrated. Sucks he was in bottom tier equipment to start his career.
Brad has saved his career
Well, I WAS Gonna say he didnt win cuz there was so much talent when he began cup BUT i was mistaken-anybody that was ANY Good had already retired or left before chris got there—Only thing i can say Now is YEAH he does Really SUCK…LMAO
@Driftin 69L + ratio
@Driftin 69Chris is underrated lmao cry hater
@Driftin 69this 4 year old doesn’t know what “bottom tier” means
Man Michigan is giving out some great racing with this new car!
Great win for Buescher, but what a drive from Truex to gather him back in like that!
Yea, I thought “damn, there goes that” but he still made it interesting at the end! It’s always fun to think: if there was one more lap, who would you have put money on?
That’s cool. Happy for Buscher! Also glad to see Truex fast just about everywhere again.
Good finish! And hats off to Truex and his race craft!
This damage vehicle policy is horrible
They really gotta extend that
Buescher showed he belongs with his dual against MTJ during those last 20 laps. Having Austin Hill in the way, truex nosing ahead but not clearing him, and still maintaining his composure……amazing driving. Congrats to the entire organization!! Sport is better with Roush being competitive.
nice finish. and impressive back to back for Buescher
