BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP)—Justin Allgaier held off Penske Racing teammate Brad Keselowski to grab his first career NASCAR victory.
Allgaier passed Keselowski on a restart with 27 laps remaining in the Nationwide Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway on Saturday.
Keselowski didn’t let up, though, and raced his teammate hard over the closing laps. He tried to pass him on the inside several times, but Allgaier held on for the win.
Keselowski led 73 laps but finished second. Kyle Busch was third and was followed by Carl Edwards and Kevin Harvick.
Harvick spun Joey Logano on the final lap to grab his top-five finish. Logano wound up 14th.
