Gordon Wins at Daytona

Jeff Gordon won his 3rd Daytona 500 today in a wild finish. Gordon needed a bit of a push from Jimmie Johnson to take the lead - the fourth lead change in the last nine laps - and then hung on for the win. It didn't hurt that Johnson continued to block Tony Stewart throughout the last laps either.

Kurt Busch, Little E, Scott Riggs, and Jimmie Johnson rounded out the top 5. In all, 4 Chevrolets finished in the top 5 - not surprising for a superspeedway race.
