Bubak surged to third on the low side on lap two, and then passed Martin for second on the next circuit. Johnson was working from tail to break the top five by lap three. Danley came to a stop three laps in, bunching the field. Bubak shot into the lead on the restart, and Johnson moved up to fourth and then third, getting by a fading Martin.

He was running in the fifth and final running spot, but Peterson’s wing brackets gave way and he pulled off under caution, giving the final transfer to Zoutte.
