Runner-up Finish in Phoenix Buescher finished second in the Shriners Children's 500 NASCAR Cup Series race at Phoenix Raceway Sunday afternoon.

Impact The Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing veteran rebounded from a disastrous Las Vegas outing to an impressive drive in the Arizona desert. Buescher would patiently race his way inside the Top 10 and establish track position there in stage 2. He and the No. 17 Ford team would pick the right pit strategy after a lap 216 caution would divide the field into alternating strategies. Buescher would climb into second-place and hold off Ty Gibbs down the stretch to earn the runner-up finish at Phoenix.

Impact These penalties are always salt in the wound after a bad outcome like Buescher's at Vegas this past Sunday. The lose wheel not only caused him to crash, but now NASCAR has suspended two of the No. 17 team's crew members as a result. Buescher's jack man and front tire changer will miss the next two Cup Series events. He'll look to overcome these obstacles in this weekend's Shriners Children's 500 at Phoenix.

Buescher's Ford Mustang would suffer a tire failure and the wheel would come off the front right going into turn 1 of lap 27. The Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing veteran would hit the outside wall very hard, causing extensive damage to his car and the wall. The red flag would come out for repairs to the wall and Buescher would be retired for the day with his first DNF of the season.
