AdventHealth 400: Winners, Losers from NASCAR Race Today at Kansas Speedway

Scott Sewell-Imagn Images Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Kansas Speedway, the AdventHealth 400, was poised to be the first of the season without a caution for an incident. Then with 2 laps to go, Cody Ware lost control and brought out the the first natural caution of the day to send us to overtime. Let’s dive into our winners and loses from the NASCAR race today at Kansas Speedway.

Winner: Kyle Larson Scott Kinser-Imagn Images Kyle Larson now hasn’t won a NASCAR Cup Series race in 11 months, a 33-race stretch without a trip to victory lane. It’s certainly disappointing for him, but he won Stage 2 on Sunday to give him three stage wins in the last three races, and he’s accrued 39 stage points during this two-race span with finishes of third place (Bristol) and second (Kansas). That might not take the sting out of this last-lap loss to Tyler Reddick, but the No.

5 team has amassed over 100 points in its last two races and Larson is positioning himself well for The Chase. Loser: Kyle Busch Gary A. Vasquez-Imagn Images When Kyle Busch showed some fire on Saturday in his response to comments made by Denny Hamlin, there were plenty of KFB chants and hope for some on-track chaos.

Of course, the issue with Busch threatening to make life “hell” for Hamlin on the track was that the only chance the No. 8 car would have at it would be if he fell a lap-plus down. What happened in the AdventHealth 400?
