Suárez, 32, defeated Busch by 0.007 seconds and Blaney, 30, by 0.003 seconds.

Busch made an attempt to build a third row by attempting to split the center between Blaney and Suarez, almost perfectly executing the aggressive move.

“It was so damn close, man,” According to NASCAR.com, Suárez stated. “It was so damn close. It was good racing. Ryan Blaney there, Kyle Busch, Austin Cindric also was doing a great job giving pushes. In the back straightaway, he didn’t push me because he knew I was going to (screw) his teammate, but, man, what a job.”

“It’s good to see Daniel get a win,” Busch continued.

“We were helping each other, being Chevy team partners and working together there. Shows that when you do have friends and you can make alliances that they do seem to work, and that was a good part of today.”
