Joey Logano race to 5th Nationwide win of year

Posted: Updated:
BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) -

Joey Logano followed up his Sprint Cup victory at Pocono last weekend with a win on the Nationwide Series on Saturday at Michigan International Speedway.
    
Logano held off James Buescher for his fifth Nationwide win of the year and 14th of his career. He has won four of the last five races in the No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota.
    
Kurt Busch, back from a one-week suspension, finished third.
    
There was a red flag with seven laps to go after an accident involving Josh Richards and Jamie Dick. Flames shot briefly out of Dick's car, but both drivers were evaluated and released after the crash.
    
Buescher tried to pass Logano on the inside in the final seconds but wasn't able to.
