Some pit, some stay out.<\/p>\n

Erik Jones (43) bounces off the wall on lap 221 of 312, then continues on. The race stays green.<\/p>\n

Christopher ‘CBell’ Bell (20) wins 5.649 seconds ahead of second place Chris Buescher (17).<\/p>\n

Finally the boredom is concluded. That was a boring Phoenix race. It had a little more action than the usual Phoenix event, but it was boring all the same.<\/p>\n

MRN’s Jeff Striegle said, “It was a matter of which Toyota team would win today” and that just about summed up the level of excitement and engagement not generated by the event for me.<\/p>\n
