It was a roller-coaster weekend for Hendrick Motorsports, but it ended with a near-perfect race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Chastain didn’t get the finish he deserved after a hectic overtime finish pushed him back to 12th. He ran inside the top-five for most of the race, scored 12 stage points, led 10 laps and retained the points standings lead. He finished second and third in two races at Phoenix last season.After a dominant win at Fontana, Busch was quiet at his home track on Sunday. He finished 14th and scored just two stage points while running outside the top-10 for much of the race.
If it weren’t for a late caution, Larson had the victory at Las Vegas locked up. But after a slow pit stop, he had to settle for second place. Larson was clearly a tick slower than Byron throughout the race, but he did lead 63 laps and maintained track position when he had it. With cars this fast, Larson is destined to find victory lane soon.Team Penske’s performance on Sunday was a real head-scratcher. Logano qualified on the pole, with his teammates also in the top-10.
