Top 5 on lap 10: 22,11,18,24,31
Notable Moment: On lap 14 the first caution came out. It was because of fluid coming from the #11. Denny Hamlin was running in 2nd at the time. It was supposedly gear oil. Denny Hamlin then took his car to the garage which dropped him 3 laps down.
During the first caution Brad Keselowski was penalized for having too many men over the wall.
