The Nationwide Series had their one annual race at Kansas on Saturday (Cup has had two since 2011) and just like in previous races at all levels of racing at the track, there were many cautions resulting from crashes and single-car spins. The first spin was on lap 3 of the 200-lap race by Milka Duno, making her series debut with low expectations after failing to qualify for a number of races in the series during the past few months. Duno is an Argentinean driver competing in ARCA, whose season wrapped up at the 1.5-mile track on Friday.
Other incidents included a collision between Matt DiBenedetto and John Wes Townley, who had just been out front a few laps earlier, and a crash in which Kyle Larson self-spun and was then hit by Chris Buescher. There were nine cautions overall, three of which came within the first 25 laps. The race was ultimately won by Kyle Busch in another anticlimactic finish. Kansas has been prone to caution-filled races ever since the track opened in 2001. However, it is also a fairly competitive track with plenty of lead changes during most races.
