Flipping good night at Bristol.

Sunday, 26th August 2007

First race on resurfaced Bristol oval proves a hit for Carl Edwards, who books his place in the ‘Chase for the Championship' with his second win of 2007.

Front row starter Montoya dropped to 17th place at the end, losing out in a scrap with his current enemy Kevin Harvick for 16th place in the final 20 laps. Jeff Gordon came home 19th after sustaining damage when he and David Stremme clashed trying to avoid Rudd's spinning car while his teammate Jimmie Johnson fared even worse and was 21st, one lap down to the leaders after an anonymous night.

Unusually for Bristol there was a low rate of attrition with Hamlin, Sauter, Ragan and Kenseth the only official retirements and far fewer cars than normal coming home with bent fenders.
