Capping off a weekend of photo finishes, Kyle Larson won NASCAR’s AdventHealth 400 by a staggering 0.001 seconds in Kansas on Sunday.
Unlike the Kentucky Derby won by Mystik Dan on Saturday, not even the naked eye could separate who finished first out of Larson and eventual second-place finisher Chris Buescher in a photo finish. The finish was so close that Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing , Buescher’s team, and commentators on the broadcast originally believed Buescher had done enough to secure victory. The RFK team could be seen on the broadcast jubilantly celebrating before the official result was finalized.
“You guys got your money’s worth today and I’m just proud to be a part of the show.” With both drivers bumping each other and ending up neck and neck as the finish approached, neither racer could be sure that they were the victor. However, Larson was originally told he had finished in second.
