In a race filled with almost 500 quality passes (498 to be exact) One driver was failed to be passed through a majority of the race and his name was Kyle Busch. Kyle Busch led 149 of the 170 laps in the Brickyard 400 leaving two of the 3 biggest races of the season with Record Breaking victors. Last weekend's victor Matt Kenseth brought it home second, Jummie Johnson came home third, Denny Hamlin and Kyle Larson rounded out the Top-5. A large wreck collected Carl Edwards and Brad Keselowski both contenders to win at the Brickyard.

 It was all Kyle Busch today at the Brickyard and that's why without a doubt Kyle Busch wins The Motorsports News Source NASCAR Driver of The Week. Domination earns you things and this is one award you gain just ask Martin Truex Jr. With performances like this the rest of the season I could see Kyle Busch not only hoisting his second straight Brickyard 400 trophy but also his second straight Championship. We would like to congratulate Kyle Busch on not only winning in Indianapolis but also becoming the newest Motorsports News Source NASCAR Driver of The Week.

The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series heads to Pocono for the final time of the 2016 Season and with the 2015 Race shadowing of how fans want to see this race this season expect another Fuel Milage race. Matt Kenseth is the defending race winner but Kyle Busch was on the verge of winning there before running out of fuel. Drivers like Trevor Bayne, Ryan Newman, Jamie McMurray, Ryan Blaney will all look to rebound the points lost after a disappointing showing at Indianapolis.
