That was some finish.

I've never actually seen a car skid across the line for a podium finish!

So glad Dan won, I know he has attitude issues in the pits but he is a fantastic racer and should have a full time drive this year.  A bit of luck but he put himself in the position to benefit from it!

Gotta feel sorry for Hildebrand.  If the traffic had just been a bit lower on the track he could have kept in the racing line and won.  Experience will teach him that there is no outside line on an oval at the end of a race - you should always go under instead of over.

Combination of rookie inexperience in not slowing to stay off the marbles but also his spotters for not telling him there was a slower car on the racing line. A brief lift off the gas would have kept him in the groove for the victory.

Yeah, and it was almost an identical story to last year. the panther car chasing down dario in the late stages doing less than 200 mph, just a race to see who had big enough balls to push the throttle down and hope you have the fuel.

I was so happy though! At first i yelled No! but when i realized Wheldon won I was jumping up and down screaming!
