The NASCAR Cup Series headed to Kansas Speedway for the first of two races at the mile-and-a-half track this year. On his 36th birthday (May 2), Kyle Busch took the checkered flag to capture his first victory of the season.
Will Busch’s late charge to victory lead to more for the Joe Gibbs Racing driver? Frontstretch’s Adam Cheek and Bryan Nolen discuss whether this gives Busch a sudden jolt of momentum after a sluggish start with new crew chief Ben Beshore. The duo also discuss whether Kyle Larson could have done anything to prevent Busch’s late charge due to a series of late caution flags that started with a controversial call by NASCAR.
