Kurt Busch took his second NASCAR Toyota Owners 400 in dominating fashion on Sunday, leading 291 laps and pulling away from the field after two late restarts.
Busch, who started third, passed pole sitter Joey Logano on Lap 95 and led all but 15 of the laps thereafter.
Kevin Harvick finished second. Jimmie Johnson, who started 36th after a tough day in qualifying on Friday, was third, with Jamie McMurray fourth and Logano in fifth.
Kasey Kahne, Matt Kenseth, Jeff Gordon, Clint Bowyer and Martin Truex Jr. rounded out the top 10.
Harvick, McMurray and Brad Keselowski, who finished 17th, each had brief leads, but the day belonged to Busch, who notched his first victory in 2015.
Harvick, with the second-place finish, added to his season lead in the Chase for the Cup over Logano. Harvick, with two wins already in 2015, sits at 357 points, with Logano second at 324 points.
Truex (315), Johnson (299) and Keselowski (283) sit 3-5 in the points race.
