Coke Zero Sugar 400 recap: Chris Buescher takes wins again, Ryan Preece taken to hospital
DAYTONA BEACH - The fourth August edition of NASCAR's summertime Daytona race - the Coke Zero Sugar 400 - takes the green flag tonight at 7:46.
Moving the race from Fourth of July weekend to its new slot in 2020 ended a longtime NASCAR and Daytona tradition. The "other race" at Daytona International Speedway, like February's all-important Daytona 500, also dates back to the Speedway's opening in 1959.
Planting it in August, as the 26th and final race of the Cup Series regular season, has traded in that old July tradition for new overall importance to the season at hand - the 400-miler's results finalize the upcoming 10-race playoff field. Chris Buescher again! Win in Coke Zero Sugar 400 is third in past five weeks for RFK racer
Chris Buescher darted to the lead at the start of a two-lap overtime and stayed there, winning the Coke Zero Sugar 400. It's Buescher's third win in the past five weeks, quite remarkable for a racer who previously had two career wins in eight full-time seasons. Teammate Brad Keselowski was on Buescher's bumper through the checkers, followed by Aric Almirola, Chase Elliott and Joey Logano.
Bubba Wallace, who finished 12th, retained his 16th-place position and a spot in the upcoming playoffs, which begin next Sunday at Darlington.
