NASCAR Coca Cola 600
at Charlotte Motor Speedway
Brad Keselowski held off Jimmie Johnson.
Keselowski started in the back of the field, worked his way to the front and gambled by not pitting when caution stopped Chase Elliott from winning with two laps remaining.
It is the first win for Keselowski this season, his first Coca-Cola 600 victory and the first win at this event for Ford since 2002.
The opening stage of the event was delayed by rain pushing the finish into this morning
