Late-Race Accident Collects Newman at Talladega

A late-race, multi-car accident made for another disappointing outing for Ryan Newman at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway in Sunday’s Aaron’s 499 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race. For Newman, it was the third-consecutive race at Talladega in which he was collected in a late-race incident.

The seven-car accident happened on lap 188 – the first of three attempts at green-white-checker finishes – when Newman was hit from behind by Joey Logano in the middle of turns three and four. Logano’s tap turned Newman around and sent him into the outside wall, leading to the multi-car pileup in which Newman’s No. 39 Chevy was hit multiple times.

Stewart Survives Talladega

It was far from an official win, but in a garage area surrounded by damaged racecars from a crash-marred Aaron’s 499, Tony Stewart’s 16th-place finish in Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway was a victory, nonetheless. Crew chief Darian Grubb said it best: “We survived Talladega.”

In a race that saw eight caution periods for 32 laps – four of which came in the race’s last 24 laps – survival was the name of the game. Yet, Stewart’s No. 14 Old Spice/Office Depot “Matterhorn” Chevrolet still showed some game as it led one lap early in the 200-lap event and was a part of a handful of charges to the front, the last of which put him second on lap 180 thanks to some helpful pushing from Dale Earnhardt Jr. Continue reading Stewart Survives Talladega
