Noah Gragson earns fifth career K&N West Series win at Sonoma

SONOMA, Calif. — Noah Gragson captured victory in the Procore 200 at Sonoma Raceway on Saturday (June 22) in the seventh NASCAR K&N Pro Series West race of 2019.

It was Gragson’s first win of 2019 in his return to the series and the fifth of his KNPWS career.

“I took the white flag and [Hemric] was 10 car-lengths back, and I knew it was smooth sailing from there,” said Gragson, who led the final two laps after leader Ryan Preece was black flagged for a restart violation.

Daniel Hemric, Austin Dillion, Cole Custer and David Mayhew  rounded out the top-five finishers.

Last year’s winner, Will Rodgers, finished seventh.

Pole-sitter Hailie Deegan finished eighth.

The next race for the series will be the Douglas County Speedway in Roseburg, Oregan.
