Brad Keselowski took the pole away from Kevin Harvick late for the start up front at Richmond Raceway.

Keselowski has slowed down as of late but still remains in a very good position to get to the second round of the NASCAR playoffs.

With one win and four top-five finishes in his career in Richmond, Keselowski will be poised to get a victory again and with it an automatic berth into the second round.

Chase Elliott will start third.

Kyle Busch will be fourth.

#43 is hanging in there at spot #20...

I can appreciate him trying not to get lapped, but don't get why #88 was racing with him (2 laps down at the time), when the leaders were right on their tails.

Ok, looked at the live standings, and Bowman is on the bubble. Still, a weird time to do this.

Caution #4 coming up.

Unless there is a huge cry out, I'm not going to cut the points, unless you are involved in a end-of-season tie-breaker for the podium or the 4th diecast. For some reason, I put the selections into the spreadsheet, and check it... but still have something wrong... might be due to removing columns that are blank.

Erik Jones was DQ'ed due to failed post-race inspection. and was dropped to last place. This increased everyone's score by 2 points, except the top 3 places. For our contest, this increased scores for most, except those who already picked the first 3 places.
