Keselowski avoids chaos in Las Vegas

Team Penske has continued to impress in recent weeks. After a timid start to the season, Brad Keselowski (Ford) shines by signing for the first time in his career his 3rd consecutive victory in Nascar Cup Series after winning the South Point 400 held at Las Vegas Motor Speedway (Nevada).

The 2012 champion survived the chaos that reigned in this event, which was interrupted a dozen times due to multiple accidents that caused damage among the title contenders. Of the 40 participants at the start, only 33 saw the finish. Erik Jones (Toyota), Kevin Harvick (Ford), Chase Elliott (Chevrolet) and Denny Hamlin (Toyota) all dismounted before the checkered flag.

 

 

Hendrick drivers Jimmie Johnson and Alex Bowman (Chevrolet) were also involved in collisions. If Kyle Busch (Toyota) was condemned to limit the damage by suffering from a car that could be improved, the resident of Joe Gibbs Racing took advantage of the multiple incidents to take 7th place.

Team Penske has long hoped to score a hat-trick, but the "Captain's" team still placed its 3 cars in the Top 5, Joey Logano and Ryan Blaney ranking behind Kyle Larson (Chevrolet) and Martin Truex Jr (Toyota). ). A great way to celebrate the 500th victory for the team.
