KESELOWSKI SURVIVES FOR TALLADEGA VICTORY
Brad Keselowski surged to victory Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway, emerging from an attrition-filled showdown in the GEICO 500.
Keselowski's Team Penske No. 2 Ford was just .111 seconds ahead at the end of the 10th NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race of the season. Keselowski's second victory of the season was the 19th of his NASCAR premier-series career and his fourth at the 2.66-mile Alabama track. He led five times for a race-high 46 laps.
Kyle Busch finished second in the Joe Gibbs Racing No. 18 Toyota. Austin Dillon, pole-starter Chase Elliott and Jamie McMurray completed the top five -- as the last in a series of multicar crashes erupted behind them.
With the threat of rain hanging over the event, racing intensified as the forecast worsened near the halfway point. Though reports of scattered sprinkles popped up at moments during the race, it ran the complete 188-lap, 500-mile distance without interruption.
The race was slowed by several multicar wrecks, including a 21-car stack-up in the 159th lap. Jimmie Johnson slid in front of a large pack after a bump from Kurt Busch, entangling more than half the 40-car field with some degree of damage.
