Menard hangs on for first Busch win at Milwaukee

Paul Menard found himself being pushed by Kevin Harvick with less than three laps to go at the Milwaukee Mile on Saturday night.

However, Harvick ended up paying the price, and Menard got his first career Busch Series win.

Menard took the green flag with Harvick on his tail on a restart with three laps to go, then pulled his car to the bottom of the track to force Harvick to try to pass on the outside.
