      Preece looked good the entire week, top 10 in his duel, top 10 most of the race and finished top 10 and he missed the lap 15 pileup by inches. Also, give a shootout to Jamie McMurray, involved in the lap 15 pileup, came back from 2 laps down and finished in the top 10, Austin Cindric did a nice job in his debut (until the late pit stop and last lap crash), Ross Chastain was also involved in the last lap crash, still limped it home in the top 10 (much like Preece), Spire Motorsports had both their cars in the top 10, so good night for that team too. And Kyle Larson got a top 10 his first race back and he's never had good luck on superspeedways so nice to see him turn that around.

      @@jameskelvin6720 Yes and No. Brad made the mistake of trying to run the inside line under Logano, who was expecting a high side run and moving to block. If McDowell hadn't given Brad a shove then maybe? But also then Brad doesn't get a chance to go for the lead. So you can blame McDowell for the push, Brad for the lane change, and Logano for the terrible block. At the end of the day it just boils down to racing.
