BROOKLYN, MICHIGAN (Indiana's NewsCenter) - Greg Biffle passed race leader Jimmie Johnson with five laps to go and went on to win the Pure Michigan 400 Sunday.

Biffle with the win, his second of the season and third all time at Michigan International, also passed Johnson to take over the Sprint Cup season points lead.

Brad Keselowski came in second, followed by Kasey Kahne, Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and Marcus Ambrose
