It seems like the same story all over again. Indeed, young sensation Kyle Busch (Camry No 18) seemed to have the Heluva Good! 200 Nationwide race in his pocket, as usual, but a tire situation where many competitors saw their right front tire failing at the "Monster Mile" Dover International Speedway racetrack caught up with Busch.

Following a yellow flag situation with only three laps to go, Kyle Busch got a bad restart while leading and was hit from behind by Joey Logano (Camry No 20).

Brad Keselowski (Chevy No 88) took advantage of the situation and grabbed the lead and drove to the checkered flag first.

As Logano, who finished second, though it was his mistake hitting Busch, it turned out that Busch had a right front flat tire. He would eventually finish 17th.

Clint Bowyer (Chevy No 29) came in third followed by Brian Vickers (Camry No 32) and Carl Edwards (Ford No 60).

Busch still leads the championship but now with only 40 points over Edwards.

The next Nationwide race is going to be held in Nashville on Saturday evening, June 6.
