Joey Logano won the FireKeepers Casino 400 from
Michigan International Speedway on Sunday afternoon.
Logano dominated on his way to his first victory of
the season, starting from the pole and leading 139 laps.
Logano said the victory was a testament to his team
and their hard work throughout the weekend.

“Perfect execution,” Logano said. “We’ve been knocking on the door for a win
here all season. To see the execution
this team had throughout the day, having the perfect weekend like this. Starting on the pole, having good pit stops
and staying up in the top two all race is a lot to be said about this team.”
NASCAR rolled out a new aero-package for this weekend,
and Logano said his team figured the setup early in the weekend.
“Everyone did a great job understanding what this
package was going to do, and put together a great racecar for me.”
Logano was challenged by rookie Chase Elliott late in
the race, but he ultimately had to settle for a second-place finish.
“I did something dumb,” Elliott said. “You can’t do dumb stuff and win these
races. This whole NAPA group has been
working hard these past few race weeks, but that was all on me.”
