Joey Logano wins in overtime in Phoenix

Joey Logano (Team Penske – Ford Mustang) will not have had an easy time in Arizona, but the winner of the Las Vegas (Nevada) event is the first driver to win twice in 2020, after his success in Phoenix last night.

Before finding the way to Victory Lane at the very end of the race, Logano was penalized twice in the pit lane, one for a wandering wheel during a stop, the other for a jack problem. dropping to 18th place on the 272nd lap.

But a good strategy, by staying on the track a few laps later following a yellow flag, quickly put the Penske driver back in the right car, to find himself fighting for victory against one of the masters of the place Kevin Harvick ( Stewart-Haas Racing – Ford).

Une dernière neutralisation dans les cinq derniers tours a poussé l’issue de l’épreuve en prolongations, Logano résistant bien à Harvick jusqu’au damier. Derrière le doublé Ford, Kyle Busch place la première Toyota Camry du Joe Gibbs Racing en troisième position devant Kyle Larson (Chip Ganassi Racing – Chevrolet Camaro) et Clint Bowyer (Stewart-Haas Racing).
