NASCAR Aaron’s 499 Results

It was another wild NASCAR finish at Talladega that ended with Brad Keselowski winning the 2012 Aaron’s 499.  Kyle Busch pushed Keselowski to the front past Matt Kenseth late in the race.  Keselowski then held off Busch for the win, while Kyle came in second.

Matt Kenseth hung on for third place.  Point leader Greg Biffle came in 5^th in the race and now has a 7 point lead on Kenseth.  The 9^th place finish for Dale Earnhardt Jr. dropped him into the third spot in the Sprint Cup Series. 

Keselowski paid off at 15-1 on the afternoon.  It was a good followup by Kyle Busch, who won last week’s race at Richmond.  He is running very well right now and has moved into the 9^th spot in the series.
