Busch grabs elusive Indy victory as comeback continues - LubbockOnline.com
INDIANAPOLIS — Kyle Busch’s incredible comeback rolled through Indianapolis Motor Speedway, where Busch won the Brickyard 400 on Sunday for a weekend sweep at the historic track. Busch missed the first 11 races of the season with a broken right leg and broken left foot. “I won’t say phenomenal year because it was a dismal year to start, but I guess I’ll take that 11-week vacation any year if it’s going to look like this. “Maybe I found my happy place,” Busch said in victory lane when asked if he has found a new perspective since he was injured in a crash the day before the season-opening Daytona 500. Busch, who also won the second-tier Xfinity Series race Saturday... “We’re a championship contending team, we just need to be championship eligible,” Busch said. The win for Joe Gibbs Racing was the first Sprint Cup Series victory at Indianapolis for Toyota, which has now won at all 23 active tracks. Chevrolet had entered the race on a 12-year winning streak and had won 16 of the 21 Brickyards. But Penske was denied his first Brickyard 400 win when Joey Logano finished second to Busch on Sunday in a Ford. Source: lubbockonline.com
