Loudon, NH — Joey Logano lead only 10 laps Sunday but came away with his first NASCAR Sprint Cup Series win at the LENOX Industrial Tools 301.

At age 19 years, one month and four days, he becomes the youngest winner in NASCAR Sprint Cup Series history.

“After yesterday I was bummed out,” said Logano. “But to get the win today is just cool. This is where I watched my first Cup race, where I ran my first Cup race, and where I won my first Cup race, so I couldn’t have picked a better place. This is kind of like a home turf place for me, a lot of family and friends here.”

Series points leader Tony Stewart finished fourth. With a second-place finish, Jeff Gordon climbed to within 69 points of Stewart in the Championship Standings.
