NASCAR: Results and 3 takeaways from the Cup Series race at Darlington
Brad Keselowski won the NASCAR Southern 500 on Sunday, his first Cup Series win of the season, but there are other implications from the race as well. Here are the three biggest takeaways from Sunday’s race at Darlington Raceway:
1. Another unlucky night for Kyle Larson, who has developed a habit.
You’ve got to feel bad for Larson at this point. The 26-year-old already had four second-place finishes in 2018, including at the last race at Bristol. And then to lead 280-plus laps, only to ... lose a battle off pit road by inches and eventually finish third? It’s impressive the way Larson can consistently handle these disappointments publicly, never getting too down on himself or moping, but this one especially has to hurt. It’s also becoming a trademark of his career of sorts, as even during his four-win 2017 campaign, he finished second nine times.
