NASCAR Brickyard 400 results: Larson takes CONTROVERSIAL overtime win

Kyle Larson took victory at the NASCAR Brickyard 400 race on Sunday afternoon, but not without some controversial moments.

The 27-time NASCAR Cup race winner got a lucky break when Brad Keselowski had to pull to the bottom of the track with an empty fuel tank just before a restart, moving him to the bottom lane alongside Ryan Blaney when the race went green just seconds later.

Larson went ahead before another the race was red flagged for a huge wreck at the restart, which saw Daniel Hemric, John Hunter Nemechek, Chase Briscoe, Denny Hamlin and Alex Bowman all involved.

The Hendrick Motorsports man kept ahead of Blaney and his rivals at the subsequent restart, before contact further back between Ryan Preece and Chase Elliott sent the former into the wall. The officials let the race run just long enough for Larson to take the white flag before throwing the caution, ensuring that he would win a dramatic race which went long past the scheduled 160 laps.
