Greg Biffle Wins in Michigan and Takes the NASCAR Points Lead

Ending a seven year dry spell for Ford and Roush at Michigan International Speedway, Greg Biffle won the Pure Michigan 400″ and the Sprint Cup points lead.

After Jimmie Johnson blew an engine with six laps to go, Greg Biffle took the checkered flag, with a photo finish for second with Brad Keselowski taking the position by a hair, giving Kasey Kahne third. Dale Earnhardt Jr. was fourth and last weeks winner Marcos Ambrose in fifth.
