Kurt Busch led 291 laps on his way to a commanding victory in Sunday’s rain-delayed Toyota Owners 400 at Richmond International Raceway.
Busch scored his 26th career Sprint Cup Series victory and first since his Martinsville win in April of 2014.
He led a 1-2 finish for Stewart-Haas Racing as Kevin Harvick followed Busch across the finish line to come home second despite battling a broken track bar.
Jimmie Johnson, Jamie McMurray and Joey Logano rounded out the top five.
Kasey Kahne, Matt Kenseth, Jeff Gordon, Clint Bowyer and Martin Truex Jr. completed the first ten finishers.
The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series now heads to Talladega Superspeedway for next Sunday’s Geico 500.
