Matt Kenseth wins Gatorade Duel 2

[media-credit name=”David Yeazell” align=”alignright” width=”225″][/media-credit]Matt Kenseth made his run to the front in the final laps with Jimmie Johnson pushing him.

Then leader, Greg Biffle pulled up to block the duo but both cars had too much momentum and pulled to the inside of Biffle, took the lead and Biffle went on to win the Gatorade Duel No. 2 at Daytona International Speedway on Thursday.

“We just had a big run there. Jimmie Johnson gave me a huge push there and that really worked nice for me the whole race there. Without that push it would have never gotten done.” Kenseth said.

This was also Roush Fenway’s first duel victory.

“It got a little dicey there at the end. I could have probably blocked a little bit more than I did, but that’s not the time to block right there for that win.” Biffle said.

Dave Blaney, Joe Nemechek and Tony Raines took the final three spots in the Daytona 500.
