Kyle Busch’s First Win of 2014

Kyle Busch drove his number 18 Toyota to the finish line yesterday at Fontana, bringing home the checkered flag for the Auto Club 400. This makes it his first win of the ongoing 2014 NASCAR Season.

If you are a Jimmy Johnson fan, it was an especially tough loss, where Jimmy blew out his left front tire with only 6 laps remaining of the race. Jimmy was indeed leading the pack at the time and really had no reason to not win the race at that point.

After that occurred, it setup a caution flag situation with just a few laps remaining, bringing a two-lap overtime finish at Fontana. This was also Toyota's first win of the season as well.

Rookie Kyle Larson came in 2nd, Busch's brother Kurt came in 3rd, Matt Kenseth was next in 4th and Tony Stewart rounded out the top 5. A much better finish yesterday for Tony Stewart than earlier races so far this season.

Onto next week, where it's all about a trip to Virginia, and the STP 500 at Martinsville Speedway!
