It was Talladega all over again. Coming out of nowhere, a Joe Gibbs Toyota stole one from the rest of the field. Near the end of a crash filled race, it looked like either Elliott Sadler with Kevin Harvick or Danica Patrick with Aric Almirola were going to win.
Logano pulls a Kyle Busch and steals one: The Subway Jalapeno 250 Review
Speaking of Patrick, she showed that she could be a threat for any of the super speedways on the schedule from here on out. The rest of the schedule? Not so much. But Patrick impressed. In the end, it was a huge pileup that cost her a top 5. So, what happened? It was one of those Super Speedway type accidents. Everyone started to get into each other, and in the end, it was a hit by Almirola that sent Patrick into the wall and everyone else piled up. Tony Stewart, Kenny Wallace, and many others were involved.
Jason Leffler who was being pushed by Reed Sorenson wound up making it through before the wreck happened and almost made a run at Logano.
