Carl Edwards is a very good client. Surpassing the adversity in several forms, the original one of Missouri was the winner the Sunday of UAW-Dodge 400 in the Fertile valleys Motor Speedway.It was the second victory in row of Edwards in Glass Sprint of NASCAR… in fact, in one week, because it gained the race delayed in rain in California.Edwards maintained the first place in last the 29 returns of the race after to escape to Matt Kenseth by the leadership.Twice during the race, Edwards returned to the fight after being forced to twice take the race from back of the contingent.It seemed that the problems in pits were the daily routine for Edwards and their equipment of pits, but an incident during a shutdown in pits went at least to its favor. A rim was come off its car and rolled by the track of pits as soon as a camarógrafo of television interfered with the equipment. The camarógrafo blocked the passage of a member of the equipment and the officials of NASCAR, that normally would invoke a punishment by a rim rolling outside control in pits, considered it inevitable on the part of the team of Edwards.Edwards won to Dale Earnhardt Jr in the goal after a strong accident that involved to tetracampeón Jeff Gordon and Matt Kenseth.Grouped after a resumption, Gordon and Kenseth they tried to exceed to Earnhardt course to the first curve. When leaving the second curve, Gordon gave a top him to Kenseth. The contact turned to Kenseth and sent at full speed to Gordon to the inner wall of retention. The resulting impact came off the radiator the car of Gordon. Tetracampeón left unharmed.Greg Biffle finalized third party, Kevin Harvick fourth, and Jeff Burton fifth.Kasey Kahne was sixth, followed of David Ragan, Travis Kvapil, Denny Hamlin and Mark Martin.Kyle Busch, a contender at the beginning of the race, was 11º after to battle with its completion in the last stages of the race.Kenseth also was relegated to an evil result (20º) after running to the front in the race.Edwards heads the scores of Glass Sprint in their race for the first time.The winner of the position of privilege, Kyle Busch, escaped at the outset, but he exceeded it to Edwards to clear the leadership to him before 30 returns were completed.The Thunderbirds of the Air Force of the United States flew by skies blue and cleared to give a spectacular beginning to the race.David Reutimann and Jamie McMurray found problems at the beginning and fell to the bottom. David Reutimann cleared the wall, and McMurray trompeó, which caused the first yellow flag of the race.When the contingent covered 60 returns, four pilots had been penalized by excess of speed in the track of pits, Biffle, Kurt Busch, Mike Skinner and Elliott Sadler.Rest in the track - a piece of the escape - caused the second yellow flag of the day in return 70. When the things were started again under conditions of race, the race order had to Burton to the front of the contingent.Earnhardt Jr was second, followed of Kyle Busch, Mark Martin, Scott Riggs, Tony Stewart, Kenseth, Edwards, Ryan Newman and Gordon.Another yellow flag waved in return 109 when to Stewart the right front rim was punctured to him and beat against the wall of retention between curves three and four. Stewart said that the impact was strongest than it can remember.Kyle Busch took the leadership in the resumption and Kenseth was back of him. Nevertheless, Kenseth took the leadership later a return and Gordon went to the put second. Jeff Burton was quarter behind Busch. Earnhardt Jr was fifth.The defending champion of the Glass Sprint, Jimmie Johnson fought with a little maneuverable car from the beginning and rolled slow in the back part of the group, very far from the passage of the leaders.
