Description

The FireKeepers Casino 400 is a 400-mile (643.737 km) NASCAR Cup Series stock car race held annually at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Michigan. It is the first of two NASCAR Cup Series races at Michigan, with the other one being the Consumers Energy 400 in mid-August.
This particular event had one of the longer title sponsorship arrangements. Miller Brewing Company sponsored the race from 1984 to 1998. In 2006, 3M signed a three-year agreement to sponsor the race, but after one year moved its sponsorship to the August race. Starting with the 2008 race, LifeLock had title sponsorship rights for three years pending the announcement by the speedway but left after two. The LifeLock 400 was the name of the race formerly known as the Banquet 400 in 2007. From 2012 to 2015, Quicken Loans sponsored the race and was replaced by FireKeepers Casino in 2016. On October 7, 2020, the track announced that FireKeepers Casino will continue as the race sponsor.

Result Description
In an extended, dramatic, nail-biting green-flag run to the finish, Buescher held off hard-charging Martin Truex Jr. to win his second straight Cup Series race.
With team co-owner Brad Keselowski finishing fourth and Buescher winning – the ninth straight victory for Ford drivers at the 2-mile speedway – RFK can claim bragging rights as the top Ford team in the Cup garage.
Buescher becomes the first driver for the Roush Fenway Keselowski operation to win consecutive races since Carl Edwards went back-to-back in 2010.
