Brad Keselowski made his third consecutive win Sunday in the opening playoff race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, but a fourth consecutive win appears unlikely as NASCAR heads to Richmond’s short track for Saturday night’s Federated Auto Parts 400.
Richmond is a flat, 3/4-mile track that’s most similar to New Hampshire’s and Phoenix’s flat tracks. Drivers who’ve had success at those tracks have been contenders at Richmond.
NASCAR seen with Phoenix and New Hampshire once each sooner. From the desert, Kevin Harvick took the checkers, but Kyle Busch led the most laps. Harvick also won at New Hampshire, but it was Kurt Busch leading the most laps.

Keselowski completed 15th and 32nd at Phoenix and New Hampshire this season, but he’s finished 11th or better in the past six races in Richmond. A top-10 appears likely for the No. 2 team, but you will find drivers more healthy for its short-track racing on Saturday.
