The battle waged every Memorial Day weekend in Indianapolis between car owners Roger Penske and Chip Ganassi in the Indianapolis 500 carried over to the Coca-Cola 600 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series event at Charlotte Motor Speedway this year, with Penske driver Kurt Busch and Ganassi driver Jamie McMurray battling it out for the win in NASCAR’s longest race of the season.

“I thought about that Ganassi car behind us,” Busch said. “He wasn’t going to get by.”

Ganassi may have come out on top at Indy, but it was the Penske team celebrating in victory lane after the race.
