Edwards’ backflip goes international
Caught in the Catchfence™

The Nationwide Series saw a little bit of everything on NAPA Auto Parts 200 weekend at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal — practice and qualifying in the rain on Saturday and racing in both wet and dry conditions on Sunday afternoon.

Sunday’s race begin on a dry track, the first time the competitors had been on the track during dry conditions all weekend, and ended in the rain. Sprint Cup Series veteran and road course ace Marcos Ambrose seemed to have a handle on both, leading the most laps and dominating all day in both the dry and rainy weather.

Ambrose’s mastery fell off just one lap short, though, after running a perfect race all afternoon. He slipped up by jumping the curb a little too much on one of the final turns on the final lap, and Carl Edwards was able to take advantage and get by Ambrose to claim the win. - Full Story by Amanda Vincent – Louisville NASCAR Examiner
