NASCAR: Winners And Losers From Auto Club
By Cole Mentzel
NASCAR finished up a three-race trip to the west in thrilling fashion. Take a look at a few winners and losers from the Auto Club 400.
NASCAR’s Sprint Cup Series provided fans with yet another incredible finish as Jimmie Johnson was able to slide into the lead in overtime and capture a historic win.
A wide track, along with chaotic restarts, always provide entertainment at Fontana, one of NASCAR’s longer tracks (2.0 miles). That was the case again on Sunday as there was lots of passing, great racing and tension…on and off the track.
Just when everything looked finished and Kevin Harvick appeared to be on his way to claiming another victory, a late caution was thrown for Kyle Busch after he suffered from a tire failure, making it the second day in a row he had issues in the final laps of a race. That led to an entertaining restart where we saw Johnson make the moves to pass Denny Hamlin and Kevin Harvick en route to his second victory of the season.
Overall, the NASCAR universe witnessed another fantastic finish, making the Cup Series five-for-five, in terms of great endings.
Check out a few winners and losers from the event.
