Brad Keselowski staked his claim to a spot in the Round of 12 of the NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs on Saturday night with a win at Richmond Raceway.

On this week's Hard Left Turn podcast, Brandon Reed, Pete McCole and Amy Henderson review the second race of the Round of 16, including:

-Keselowski dominated Saturday's race at Richmond, leading 194 of 400 laps en route to the victory.

-Austin Dillon proved his run at Darlington was not a fluke, coming back from a pit road speeding penalty and missing pit road under green for a fourth place finish.

-Denny Hamlin looked strong early, but a pit road speeding penalty set him back in the field, and he was never able to recover.

-Four drivers go to Bristol likely needing a win to have any hope of making the Round of 12.

-Several new Silly Season developments over the past week.  We'll break them down for you.

-Plus, we preview the cutoff race for the Round of 16 this Saturday night at Bristol Motor Speedway.

WDUN will carry live PRN Radio coverage of Saturday night's NASCAR Cup Series Bristol Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway beginning at 6:30 pm on 102.9 FM, AM 550 and streaming live on AccessWDUN.
