Paul Menard wins at Road America in his home state

Paul Menard wheeled the #33 RCR Chevrolet to his first road course win in the Xfinity Series' Road America 180 at the Road America road course in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. The 4-mile road course is located in Menard's home state. He was the lone Sprint Cup competitor on a weekend that NASCAR's top series has off. A series of late pit stops gave several drivers, notably the #8 Toyota of Blake Koch, a chance to pull off a major upset, but a late, lengthy caution prompted by a spin by the #88 Chevrolet of Ben Rhodes, lasting six of 45 laps - 24 miles - allowed the more dominant drivers to get back up front by the time of the restart.
