Transcript
00:00A very familiar voice to the NASCAR on NBC Sports family.
00:04Lee Diffie will have the play-by-play call for the rest of the year.
00:07Diff, great to have you on the team. Welcome in.
00:10Hi Marty, good evening, good evening fellas, and yes it is lovely to be here with you.
00:14It's time to bring the action at Daytona International Speedway.
00:17We've got to go back a long, long way for Kyle Busch.
00:222008, the last time he won here at Daytona.
00:26And now he is tantalizingly close to that victory.
00:30But here comes Harrison Burton for the Wood Brothers.
00:33He's being pushed by Parker Retzlaff.
00:36And the 23-year-old from Huntersville, North Carolina,
00:40is at the front of this field and may race his way into the playoffs.
00:45Busch goes low. Burton blocks.
00:49He gets back up. Comes to the line.
00:52Jeff, your little boy, has done it.
00:55Harrison Burton wins in Daytona.
00:59How about that?
01:01Briscoe wants to race his way in like Chastain does.
01:04Here goes Briscoe on the inside.
01:06The big move from Chase Briscoe.
01:09This could be the difference between making the playoffs or not.
01:14Wow!
01:16Both guys are going to break a very long, winless streak.
01:21But who will it be?
01:24It's a win, and you're in.
01:28And the 29-year-old from Mitchell, Indiana,
01:31Chase Briscoe, wins the Southern 500
01:35and is going to the playoffs.
01:38And no matter what happens on this lap,
01:42the race will be determined.
01:45Chris Buscher is hounding down Shane Van Gisbergen,
01:49who happens to be mentored by Marcus Ambrose.
01:53Marcus will be back in Australia watching this.
01:55And it's Shane of Keselowski and Ambrose all over again.
01:59Buscher gets on the inside of SVG
02:01and says, you pushed me around earlier.
02:03I'm going to give it back.
02:06Incredible on this final lap.
02:08Van Gisbergen's only got one real shot left at it.
02:12Maybe two. Thinks about it in the turn six.
02:16Did Buscher save the best to last?
02:18Or has Van Gisbergen got a little payback?
02:21He gets wide. He loses it almost.
02:24He has to gather it up, but he can't do it.
02:27Chris Buscher wins at the Glen in the most spectacular style.
02:35What did we just say?
02:37The pain of missing the playoffs
02:39has just been eased with a phenomenal victory.
02:45We've had some dramatic finishes this year,
02:48and it's got that feeling about it again.
02:51The built submarine's car is in front,
02:53but for how much longer?
02:55Here comes Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
02:58Through the tri-oval. Keselowski down low.
03:01Stenhouse high. Byron goes for it on the outside.
03:05Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
03:10Wins for the first time since he won the Daytona 500.
