Sprint Cup results from Practice 2 at Kansas Speedway
The second practice by the Sprint Cup Series at Kansas Speedway for the Hollywood Casino 400 is complete.
Paul Menard posted the fastest time in the Saturday morning practice session with the fastest speed of 184.672, after qualifying 14th last night.
Kevin Harvick posted the best time by a Chase for the Sprint Cup driver with a fast lap of 184.376.
Kasey Kahne received a 15-minute penalty at the beginning of practice after running too long at the end of Friday's opening practice session.
The Hollywood Casino 400 is the second of three races in the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Round of 12. After next week’s race at Talladega Superspeedway, only the top eight drivers in points will advance to the semifinal round of the Chase.
A win in any of the three races of this round automatically advances the winner to the next round. The only driver locked in already is Jimmie Johnson, who won at Charlotte Motor Speedway last Sunday and was eighth fast in practice today at Kansas.
The Happy Hour final round of practice takes place at 1:30 p.m. ET today.
