After the first (and only) attempt at a green-white-checkered restart, it was Denny Hamlin holding off his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate, Kyle Busch, to win the NSCS Gillette Fusion ProGlide 500 at Pocono Raceway.
Hamlin, who led the most laps with 88 laps of the 204 that were run, received his 4th series pole of the 2010 season, his 12th series career win and his 4th series win at "the tricky triangle."
Following Hamlin and Busch to the drop of the checkered flag were Tony Stewart finishing in third, Kevin Harvick finishing fourth, Jimmie Johnson fifth, Kurt Busch sixth, Jeff Burton seventh, Juan Pablo Montoya eighth, Clint Bowyer ninth and A.J. Allmendinger rounding out the top-ten finishers.
