Carl Edwards continued his dominant weekend at Phoenix International Raceway, winning Saturday’s Wypall 200 Nationwide Series race in a cakewalk over runner-up Kevin Harvick.
Edwards started second to Joey Logano but quickly went to the front. He led 153 of 200 laps at the one-mile track en route to his fourth victory of the season and the 29th of his career. The victory was Edwards’ fourth at Phoenix and his second consecutive in the series.
“This is the best car I’ve ever had in the Nationwide Series,” Edwards radioed to crew chief Mike Beam after the race. NASCAR.com
Joey Logano, Brad Keselowski and Reed Sorenson rounded out the top five.
Aric Almirola was sixth, followed by Colin Braun and Justin Allgaier. Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Steve Wallace completed the top 10.
Danica Patrick finished 32nd after a rough race. She had a tire problem after making contact with Tony Raines, but also bumped and banged with Alex Kennedy for several laps in the middle of the race. MiamiHerald.com
