As the laps winded down in Sunday’s Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Kobalt 400, it seemed as if Brad Keselowski was going to cruise to his second-straight victory in Las Vegas. But in true NASCAR fashion, the race wasn’t going to be over until the checkered flag flew.
With two laps to go in Sunday’s race, Keselowski’s lead diminished as he reported something began to break on his car. Martin Truex Jr. was able to get side-by-side with Keselowski going down the backstretch and cleared to the race lead just before the field began the last lap.
