NASCAR reverses decision on lap leader in Texas race
NASCAR officials corrected a Sunday call in the Sam sung/Radio Shack 00 at Texas Motor Speedway. Jeff Gordon was the first to cross the start finish line under caution, though Matt Kenseth had led the lap, and Ryan Newman won the race with Gordon third and Kenseth sixth. The change follows Helton’s admission of the error and cites an unfamiliar scenario where the leader should be scored differently.
