One site I like to visit occasionally is Jalopnik. They always have the latest in automotive news in general.
Today they had an article titled “Anatomy Of A NASCAR Mega Crash“.
With just one lap to go in the Coke Zero 400 leader Kyle Busch crashes trying to block Tony Stewart in the final turn as cars fly across the finish line. A blow-by-blow CSI-style analysis of the carnage below.
This was one of the more spectacular finishes in recent memory and fitting for a track like Daytona, which is known for high speeds and dramatic incidents. This all occurred when Kyle Busch attempted to hold his lead in the last turn while simultaneously trying to prevent Tony Stewart from passing. It doesn’t work. While Stewart glides across the line to take the checkered flag you can click “HERE” to see what happens to Busch, an unsuspecting Kahne, and the rest of the field.
