In a wild Monday Afternoon in Pocono, Chris Buescher was in the right place at the right time to land his #34 Dockside Logistics Ford Fusion for Front Row Motorsports in front when the fog rolled in and NASCAR decided to call the race with 21 laps to go. With this win, Chris Buescher now just needs to make up six points to land himself in his first Chase for The Sprint Cup Series in his Rookie Season. Brad Keselowski was able to make the pass on Regan Smith to secure a second place finish. Regan Smith was able to hold on and finish 3rd, Stewart Haas teammates Kevin Harvick and Tony Stewart rounded out the Top-5.

After the race was postponed on Sunday, it was raced on Monday. Chris Buescher had an issue with a tire at the beginning causing him to have to pit off sequence which would ultimately pay off for Buescher. Chris Buescher and Regan Smith were both able to stay out and Buescher was able to stay in front of Brad Keselowski to lock in his first career NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Victory. The 2015 NASCAR Xfinity Series Champion was making his 27th start in the NSCS will be today's Motorsports News Source NASCAR Driver of The Week. Way to represent the Underfunded Teams Chris!

Next Race for The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series

From the Tricky Triangle to Watkins Glen, NASCAR will be going Road Course racing next weekend and it could be another chance for another Underfunded Team to take another spot along with Chris Buescher. If AJ Allmendinger or another driver not currently in the picture can win, Bristol, Michigan, Darlington, and Richmond will all be races for many drivers like Ryan Blaney, Chase Elliott, Paul Menard, Kyle Larson, among a few others and it will suddenly get interesting and we could see more wrecks for the win. On Sunday this race will be on USA due to the Olympics!
