Brad Keselowski made a last-lap pass of Ryan Newman for the victory Sunday, scoring his fifth victory at Talladega Superspeedway.
Keselowski’s No. 2 Ford was one of only 13 of 40 cars that finished on the lead lap of a 500-mile race that included 11 cautions and three red flags.
With the victory, Keselowski advanced to the Round of 8. Denny Hamlin, Matt Kenseth and Kyle Larson were the only other title-eligible drivers who were running at the finish as crashes collected the other eight drivers still in the playoffs.
