NASCAR Xfinity Series driver Brandon Jones praised his team for a “well executed” game plan that led to a trip to Victory Lane at Kansas Speedway on Saturday.
Speaking to CW after earning the Kansas Lottery 300, Jones continued to dominate at the 1.5-mile oval, securing his third win in his past 11 starts at the venue.
“The entire day was so well executed,” Jones said, as reported by SI.com. “That’s probably by far in my career my most well-executed race.”
Jones, who won from the pole for the first time in his career, credited his crew for his seventh career win, executing four of its top eight pit stops this season.
Along with Jones, regular-season champion Connor Zilisch and Justin Allgaier, the defending drivers’ champion who earned his 17th stage sweep Saturday, advanced to the Round of 8.
X (Twitter) users responded to Jones’ winning run …

Strategy backfired on Justin Allgaier as he needed a late caution so he could be one of the few with a fresh set of tires for the end. But in the end, the 13th-place finish locked him into the next round on points so he can leave Kansas with at least a bit of a smile. pic.twitter.com/DZCHvswf8C
