2016 Winner
Kyle Busch
Joe Gibbs Racing
Rundown: After winning the pole for both the Sprint Cup
series and the Xfinity series races at the Brickyard,  Kyle
Busch was unstoppable as he ran away with both races.

Quote: “I knew when we got the checkered, I just didn’t want
to come in quite yet,” said Stewart, a two-time Brickyard 400
winner. “I wanted to run one more lap, and Jeff was around
us before that last green run, and I told my spotter to go get
his spotter and say ‘after this thing’s over we need to go a
lap around here together, because most likely is the last
time we’ll both get to do that.’ I couldn’t think of a better guy
to share that with than Jeff.”

Seen The Last of them Hoosiers?  After retiring last
year, Jeff Gordon returned to race in the Brickyard 400,
subbing for Dale Earnhardt Jr. who was missing a few
races dealing with a concussion.   Gordon finished in 13th.  
Tony Stewart is retiring this year and finished in 11th place
in his final Brickyard 400.

The race was red-flagged on Lap 12 due to
thunderstorms.  The race resumed two hours later.  
Pole sitter Kyle Busch led through the first and second
stages, followed by fellow Toyota driver
Martin Truex, Jr. On lap 111, They got together and
hit the wall!  The race had 2 more red flags and 14
yellows!  The most of any Brickyard 400 ever!  
There was a wreck on every restart.  With 2 laps to
go, Jimmie Johnson loses it in T3 while going 3-wide
with Kahne and Keselowski!.
The race goes into overtime as the sun is falling out
of the sky, then another big wreck.  Finally as we
near 9pm, Kahne grabs the lead from Keselowski
before the inevitable crash, and he passed the
Overtime Line before the track through the yellow,
and won for the first time since 2014.

Quote: "And this race had, you know, some key
moments that I think we’ll probably play back for the
next five or 10 years."- Brad Keselowski
2018 Winner
Brad Keselowski
Team Penske
They changed the date from the middle of summer to the first
of September, hoping for cooler temps and a more pleasant
experience for the fans.

It rained from Friday to Sunday and all practice and qualifying
was cancelled as well as the all day concert planned for Friday.

Both Nascar races (Xfinity 250 and the Cup 400) were ran on
Monday.  This was the 25th Brickyard 400 and the first time
the race had ever been postponed to the next day.

A late caution bunched up the pack. With two laps to go,
Brad Keselowski bumped his way by Denny Hamlin for the
lead and won the race.

This was Team Penske's first Brickyard 400 victory.
2019 Winner
Kevin Harvick
Stewart-Haas Racing
Rundown: The weather this year cooperated and was not
too hot or sunny.  Kevin Harvick won from pole, leading the
most laps, despite having to go through 9 restarts in this
caution-filled race.  

Quote:  “We’ve given so many away just because of
circumstances here, and the way that the caution flag fell today
actually worked in our favor. It gave us control of the race, and
we were able to keep control of the race and not make any
mistakes."

Ending Streak: Jimmie Johnson had a fast car and scored
points in the first two stages, but was involved in an 8-car
accident  that ended his race and his hopes for another
Cup Playoff berth of which he'd been a part since  the format
was introduced in 2004.
This was Harvick's 3rd win of the year
and his 2nd Brickyard 400 win.

Race day weather was nice - partly cloudy and temperature in the 70s.

At the end of the race,
the three drivers in front were in a pack by themselves.
Those drivers were Brad Keselowski, Ryan Blaney and Kyle Larson
All were concerned about running out of fuel.
and Keselowski did just that in overtime.
A restart then enabled Larson to shoot by Blaney for the lead.

T
he race then got red flagged due to a big accident and that caused a second overtime.
On the last lap, another wreck caused another caution and the race ended
 under yellow
with Larson winning his first Brickyard.400.


Note: The Brickyard 400 race was replaced by the "200 at the Brickyard" from 2021-2023.  
That race was on the Indy Speedway road course instead of the oval.
