RICHMOND, Va. (AP) – Kevin Harvick passed Brad Keselowski for the lead with just over 50 laps to go Friday night and won the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Richmond.
Harvick earned his third victory of the season and the 37th of his career in the series, spoiling an otherwise remarkable performance by Keselowski, the series points leader.
Hampered by interference on pit road that caused him to park awkwardly in his stall under a green flag, Keselowski went two laps down before the midpoint of the 250-lap event at Richmond International Raceway. He then rallied and was running third when a caution flag came out with 46 laps to go. He emerged third after the leaders pitted, but came up short.
Trevor Bayne was third, followed by Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Reed Sorenson.
