Kyle Busch, 2015 Sprint Cup Series Champion

Kyle Busch, in his eleventh full season, completed his comeback from his Daytona injury in a big way by winning Sunday's Ford EcoBoost 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway in south Florida, thus claiming his first-ever Sprint Cup Series championship. It was the first title in NASCAR's top series for manufacturer Toyota, who entered the series in 2007. It is the fourth championship for team owner Joe Gibbs (2000, 2002, 2005) and the second for Gibbs' #18 car after Bobby Labonte's 2000 championship in the #18 Interstate Batteries machine. Busch got the lead on a late restart after a battle during a long green flag run between Brad Keselowski (#2) and Kyle Larson (#42).
