Earnhardt Earns First Win Of The Year At Chicagoland
Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the Sheetrock 400 at Chicagoland Speedway, his 16th career victory and first since Phoenix last November, after a late two-tire pit stop helped him surge past Matt Kenseth who finished second. Kenseth led 176 of 267 laps but could not catch Earnhardt in the final laps as Jrs team and crew chief Steve Hmiel surmounted a dominant day by Kenseth and overcame a rough start to climb to 13th in the standings with the win.
