Ryan Newman Wins the Daytona 500!

In the final laps at the Daytona 500 yesterday, it looked like Tony Stewart was going to take the checkered flag. But it just wasn’t to be. After a botched draft attempt involving teammate Kyle Busch, Ryan Newman and Kurt Busch of Penske Racing were able to squeak by Stewart, dropping the popular driver to the third position, and crushing his hopes to win the Great American Race. For a lap-by-lap breakdown of the action, head over to NASCAR’s official site, and expect to see our shots from the race posted tomorrow morning.
