CONCORD, N.C. — Kyle Busch had never won a Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race at Charlotte Motor Speedway until Saturday night – when he won big, taking home $1 million for his efforts.
Busch made the winning move on the restart at the beginning of the final 10-lap stage, passing both Brad Keselowski and Jimmie Johnson and then setting sail for Victory Lane, where he was presented with the winner’s check of $1 million.
The race was comprised for four stages: three 20-lap stages and one final 10-lap shootout between 10 drivers – the stage winners plus the rest of those in the field who had the highest-average finishes over the first three stages.
