Underway in Bristol!

Blaney takes the lead

Ryan Blaney held the early lead a few laps into the race at Bristol.

Not for long …

How quickly the tables can turn. Things got messy for Blaney on pit road, where he lost a wheel while trying to pit for a flat.

And things only got worse from there for No. 12 …

Keselowski takes Stage 1

After Blaney’s misfortunes in Stage 1, Keselowski nabbed the Stage 1 win.
