Keselowski Wins Last Gateway Race

Written by  Gerald Hodges Monday, October 25, 2010 at 9:41 am

MADISON, Ill. — Brad Keselowski passed Mike Bliss with less than two laps remaining to win the Nationwide Series race at Gateway Speedway. It was the final NASCAR race at the 1.25-mile track.

Keselowski was 200 yards from victory in the July race at Gateway when he was knocked into the wall by Carl Edwards and finished 14th.

He had to start in the rear of the field Saturday, after arriving from Sprint Cup Series practice in Martinsville, Va., but still was able to lead 83 of the 200 laps en route to his second consecutive victory and sixth of the year.

Justin Allgaier, Jason Leffler, Carl Edwards, Reed Sorenson, Josh Wise, Brad Coleman, Paul Menard and Jeremy Clements were the remaining top-10 finishers.

Keselowski, the Nationwide Series standings leader, was unable to clinch the 2010 driver title, but could do so in two weeks at Texas. He is 485 points ahead of second-place Edwards and needs to leave Texas with a 391-point lead over second place in order to claim his first NASCAR title.

Top 10 points leaders after 32 of 35: 1. Keselowski-5,144, 2. Edwards-4,659, 3. Kyle Busch-4,439, 4. Allgaier-4,067, 5. Menard-4,067, 6. Harvick-3,902, 7. Bayne-3,633, 8. Leffler-3,593, 9. Logano-3,557, 10. S. Wallace-3,554.
