After 23 lead changes among 12 drivers, along with overtime and a late race scramble, Brad Keselowski won the Digital Ally 400 Saturday night at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas.

It was Keselowski’s second win at the Kansas Speedway.

“I thought this would be a strong showing for this rules package,” said Keselowski, who took to social media to tout that Saturday’s race might be one of the best races at an intermediate track in a while. “We ran closer than we ever here before. I think Paul and the team made some good adjustments. They were able to dial it in and kudos to them.”

Alex Bowman led 67 laps and finished third for the third straight week. It was his third top 10 finish in eight races at Kansas Speedway. Eric Jones finished third, his third top 10 finish at the facility.

Emporia, Kansas, native Clint Bowyer finished fifth.

After Saturday’s Digital Ally 400, Joey Logano leads the point standings by nine over Kyle Busch.
