Kyle Busch Comes Up Just Short At Bristol
4 years agoJoe Gibbs Racing's Kyle Busch finished in the second position in Saturday night's Bass Pro Shops/NRA Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway. Now, this looked like the Kyle Busch we know. The defending champion had struggled in 2020, going winless for the longest into the season he ever has in his career, but Busch was on a mission tonight. Busch won the second stage and led 159 of the 500 laps. He gave it his all in a fierce battle with Kevin Harvick, but ultimately just didn't have enough to put his No. 18 into victory lane for the first time this year. Still, the great run was encouraging for Busch, and he will look to carry that momentum to the next round of the playoffs, at his hometown track, Las Vegas.
