TALLADEGA, Ala.
Tashaun Gipson Jaguars Jersey . -- A pair of
Davids slayed the Goliaths at Talladega Superspeedway. David Ragan hooked up
with teammate David Gilliland in a two-lap overtime sprint, and together they
picked off some of the top drivers in NASCAR to drive to the front and push
Ragan into Victory Lane. It was the second career victory for Ragan -- he also
won at Daytona in July 2011 -- and Gilliland finished second for a 1-2 finish
for Front Row Motorsports. "I had a great teammate. David Gilliland gave us a
great push. I owe him a lot," Ragan said. "Ill definitely buy him lunch this
week or something." The victory came a day after Regan Smith won the Nationwide
Series race and Ragan was flooded with misfired congratulatory messages on
Twitter. "All fans- please send all congrats to (at)ReganSmith. Not this
Ragan..... He is the Winner today!! Haha," he tweeted Saturday night. Now Ragan
has his own win -- just in time to qualify for the Sprint All-Star race in two
weeks. Gilliland wanted the win but was content settling for second on a day his
team earned its first career victory. "What a great day for Front Row
Motorsports, an underfunded team coming in here and being able to finish 1-2 is
awesome," Gilliland said. "Im very proud of David Ragan. I know he would have
done the same for me. I had a heck of a run, we were pushing, I was locked to
his bumper and I wasnt going to let him go." The race took seven hours to
complete after rain stopped it for 3 hours, 36 minutes midway through the event.
With darkness quickly closing in, contact between Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and J.J.
Yeley triggered a frightening crash that sent Kurt Buschs car airborne and on
top of Ryan Newmans car. Newman has been in numerous harrowing accidents at
Daytona and Talladega, where NASCAR uses restrictor-plates to control the
speeds, and was sharp with his criticism after exiting the infield care centre.
He said he only stopped to do a live television interview to criticize cars
still being able to go airborne. "They can build safer race cars, they can build
safer walls. But they cant get their heads out of their (expletive) far enough
to keep them on the race track, and thats pretty disappointing," Newman said. "I
wanted to make sure I get that point across. Yall can figure out who they is."
He also was upset NASCAR continued the race with darkness closing in on the
track so quickly. "Thats no way to end a race," he said. "Thats just poor
judgment in restarting the race, poor judgment. I mean, you got what you wanted,
but poor judgment and running in the dark and running in the rain. Thats it,
thank you." NASCAR sent the race into overtime after the final accident for one
attempt at a green-white-checkered finish, and it seemed as though it might have
been Matt Kenseths race to win. He led a race-high 142 laps and was the leader
on the final restart but was passed by Carl Edwards on the first lap of
overtime. He tried to get the lead back and was battling Edwards with no
drafting partner. He never saw the pack coming behind him and, with nowhere to
go, fell out of contention in the blink of an eye. "Carl just got a rocket
restart there, and he cleared me down the backstretch," Kenseth said. "He just
got a huge run somehow. I was still second. I thought we still had a shot. I
tried to get around Carl but he blocked, which you should. We got real wide
getting up there and got pretty far to the top, and I just didnt watch the runs
from the guys way in the back. "I saw David at the last minute but he was going
too fast. If I pulled in front of him I was just going to get wrecked. I just
had to bite the bullet and try to find the hole, which there wasnt one. It was a
disappointing end to the day but man, we had a great car. Thats when Ragan and
Gilliland came charging out of nowhere, sweeping past Edwards and Jimmie Johnson
and to the front. "That was crazy," Edwards said. "I blocked everybody I could.
I was doing everything I could. I blocked Matt and I thought, Oh, weve got it.
And then I saw Jimmie coming and I blocked him and I thought, Who is that back
there? It was this Ford freight train coming and I just couldnt stay in front of
them." Edwards wound up third for a sweep of the top three spots for Ford.
Michael Waltrip, who turned 50 this week and was running his first race since
the Daytona 500, was fourth, and Daytona 500 winner Jimmie Johnson was fifth.
Smith finished sixth and was followed by Martin Truex Jr., Kenseth, Scott Speed
and Aric Almirola. Denny Hamlin successfully returned from a compression
fracture in a vertebra by turning 23 laps before getting out of his Joe Gibbs
Racing Toyota for replacement driver Brian Vickers during the first caution.
Hamlin climbed out through a roof hatch and Vickers slid in through the window
quickly enough to keep the No. 11 on the lead lap. "It was all about just going
through the motions and getting the process of making a comeback, getting that
started," Hamlin said. "This is the first week of a comeback. This is going to
be the start of everything, so anything that Brian gets us for points today is
strictly a bonus and were going to start next week in Darlington with our hair
on fire." But it was short-lived hope for Hamlin. A mere 18 laps later, before
Hamlin had even completed his media interviews, Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Kyle
Busch triggered a 16-car accident on lap 43 that collected Vickers. Hamlin
scurried to his garage stall to survey the damage on the car, where Vickers sat
with the window net still up. Vickers finished 34th in Hamlins car.

. "Theyve both been real good," said Babcock. "Havent changed our minds." A
decision has seemingly been made - Sundays Group B-deciding tilt against Finland
ahead - but it could not have been an easy one. Price opened the tournament with
a sturdy 19-save performance against the Norwegians, yielding just one
goal.Sweden completed a sweep of the Olympic cross-country relays in Sochi,
winning gold in the mens event on Sunday to go along with the title won in the
womens event on Saturday. The team of Lars Nelson, Daniel Richardsson, Johan
Olsson, and anchor Marcus Hellner cruised to victory in the 4x10 km event,
winning in a time of one hour, 28 minutes, and 42.0 seconds. Hellner was given a
14-second lead to work with, and stretched it to 27 seconds before crossing the
finish line, waving a Swedish flag he grabbed from the crowd. Spurred by the
home crowd and an appearance by Russian President Vladimir Putin, Russia fought
offf a surprising France team for the silver, crossing the line in 1:29:09.
Arrelious Benn Jaguars Jersey. 3. France, not
even expected to contend in this event, won bronze in 1:29:13.9. The Canadian
team of Len Valjas, Jesse Cockney, Graeme Killick and Ivan Babikov finished 12th
in 1:33:19.0. Canadas Devon Kershaw and Alex Harvey were left off the relay
team, possibly being rested for the team sprint on Wednesday. Coming off a
disappointing result in the womens relay, with the heavy favourites finishing
fifth, Norway again failed to hit the podium, placing fourth with a time of
1:29:51.7, well off the top-three finishers.
