They are lapping before 10 down. East got by Santos for 2nd, behind Fillip, who has led all the way. Kaeding is 4th. There appears to be lots of action back in the pack.

Santos just took the lead on lap 30{?).

East got by Fillip on the next lap for 2nd.

The announcers are talking about Hmiel fighting Gordon for 5th, but I believe he's a lap down.

---------- Post added at 11:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:37 PM ----------

At half way, Santos & East are doing a lot of lapping.
