NASCAR Atlanta Update: Jeff Gordon Leads Kyle Busch At Lap 50

After the restart from the competition caution, Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Kyle Busch and Denny Hamlin started side-by-side for the lead, followed by Jeff Gordon, Kevin Harvick and Clint Bowyer.

Hamlin spun the tires on the restart, which allowed Busch and Gordon to immediately pull away, with Bowyer and Brad Keselowski close behind.

Busch led the first dozen laps after the green flag got going again, but Gordon eventually caught him and made the pass at lap 46.

As of lap 50, Gordon leads Busch by less than a second, with Bowyer, Keselowski and Harvick rounding out the top five but each more than 3.5 seconds behind.
