Truex Jr still in good shape in Sonoma

Martin Truex Jr (Toyota) a soigné ses stats sur le circuit routier de Sonoma (Californie) disputé pour la première fois depuis 1997 dans sa version « carrousel ». Le pilote de la Joe Gibbs Racing a profité d’une bonne stratégie pour prendre les commandes et resté hors de portée de son coéquipier Kyle Busch qui a offert le doublé.

The 2017 champion thus offered himself his 4th victory of the season, thus equaling the performance of Kyle Busch, and thus obtained his 3rd success on the road circuit and his second in a row. The former resident of Furniture Row Racing also signed his 23rd victory in Nascar Cup Series

Ryan Blaney put the first Ford Mustang on the podium ahead of the Toyotas of Matt di Benedetto and Denny Hamlin. Kyle Larson painfully hoisted the first Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 into 10th position.
