Kevin Harvick the most economical in Michigan

And to think that a puncture had rejected Kevin Harvick (Stewart-Haas Racing – Ford) far behind the pack after just 21 laps last night at Michigan. But the 2014 champion and his team were able to overcome this setback to finally be the best strategically and come out on top of the entire peloton at the finish line.

Après les dominations de Martin Truex Jr et Kyle Busch (Joe Gibbs Racing – Toyota) lors des deux premiers segments de l’épreuve, une dernière neutralisation provoquée par Ricky Stenhouse Jr (Roush Fenway Racing – Ford) permet aux concurrents jouant la gagne de repasser par la voie des stands, certains pilotes ne choisissant que l’option carburant pour privilégier la position sur la piste.

After what will be the final yellow flag of the event, the race for consumption begins, and it is Kevin Harvick who is doing the best in the exercise. After taking the advantage over Joey Logano (Team Penske – Ford) on the 183rd lap, Harvick can count on his better fuel economy to avoid the splash&dash (like Logano), and head towards his second victory of the 'year.

Denny Hamlin (Joe Gibbs Racing) finished 2nd ahead of Kyle Larson (Chip Ganassi Racing – Chevrolet) while Martin Truex Jr and Daniel Suare (Stewart-Haas Racing) completed the top 5.
