Kyle Larson completed the weekend sweep at Auto Club Speedway on Sunday afternoon in the NASCAR Monster Energy Series race. Larson and Martin Truex Jr. were the two dominant cars all day long. When a late caution came out with under 10 laps left in the race Larson pitted and Truex chose not too.  On the restart Truex went backwards as Larson came out of the pits deep in the top ten and  got a jump on the restart and quickly with in the two laps resumed the lead.  Caution once again flew and the race would go to overtime. Larson took the restart in first followed by Denny Hamlin and Brad Keselowski who had an eventful day after being spun to the infield on lap three. Keselowski and his crew fought hard all day to get back to the front of the field. When the final green flag flew Larson got a jump on Hamlin who was on old tires and drove off into the sunset for the win!! Keselowski was stuck behind Hamlin and by the time he cleared traffic he could not run Larson down. Truex on older tires faded quickly and finished fourth. Larson who was the points leader going into today’s race has now clinched a spot in this years chase later this year.
