TALLADEGA, AL – Brad Keselowski won Sunday's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series at Talladega Superspeedway, the Geico 400.

Keselowski came to the checkered flag with a huge wreck occurring behind him.

Kyle Busch finished second, followed by Austin Dillon, Jamie McMurray, Chase Elliott, Ty Dillon (and Tony Stewart, we'll explain), Clint Bowyer, Kurt Busch, Ryan Blaney and Trevor Bayne to round out the Top-10.

With less than 10 laps to go, Matt Kenseth was involved in a wreck that literally sent him airborne.

Kenseth and Patrick both walked away okay and were taken to the infield care center, where they only received further evaluations.

With about 29 laps to go, the first "big one" of the day occurred. It was caused by Kurt Busch pushing Jimmie Johnson into Turn 2, which triggered a 21-car wreck.

Those 21 drivers were Johnson, Busch, Martin Truex Jr, Austin Dillon, AJ Allmendinger, Jamie McMurray, Michael McDowell, Regan Smith, Kyle Larson, Paul Menard, Ryan Newman, Brian Scott, David Gilliland, Danica Patrick, Kyle Busch, Landon Cassill, Aric Almirola, Ryan Blaney, Greg Biffle, Denny Hamlin and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

Now, about Ty Dillon and Tony Stewart.

Stewart started the race in the No. 14 Chevrolet, but was replaced by Ty Dillon about halfway through the race. Don't worry, it was all planned.

There were 10 cautions for 41 caution laps in the race. 28 of the 40 cars finished the race, while 33 cars were involved in some sort of incident.
