Heartbreak summed up William Byron’s Saturday at Michigan International Speedway last week.

The 19-year-old JR Motorsports driver looked on his way his first career NASCAR XFINITY Series win when Denny Hamlin passed him on the final lap for the victory. Byron finished second by a miniscule 0.012 seconds.

He’ll attempt to bounce back in Saturday’s American Ethanol E15 250 presented by Enogen at Iowa Speedway. Byron won at Iowa in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series last season after leading a race-high 107 laps.

“I am really looking forward to this weekend’s race in Iowa,” Byron said. “I won the [Camping World] Truck race there last year, so I kind of know the track. That was what helped me in Michigan last week, just knowing the track and how it was going to race. Going to a track where I have won at or run well at before, really helps me know what I want in my car.”
