NASCAR didn’t have Roush Fenway Racing’s #60-Carl Edwards in its top five as the checkered flag flew Friday night on the Bubba Burger 250 Nationwide Series race at Richmond International Raceway, but Edwards parked his car with the rest of the top five on pit road. And 10 minutes later, NASCAR had ruled that Edwards had, in fact, finished fifth. Edwards was flabbergasted about the black flag NASCAR initially issued him for passing on the restart of the green-white-checkered finish. Justin Allgaier, running second, spun his wheels on the double-file restart. As he did, Brad Keselowski, in fourth, moved to the inside to keep from hitting him from behind. Edwards, in sixth, went to the outside and made it three-wide. Going into Turn 1, Edwards gave Keselowski his position back because he had gotten next to him on the restart. NASCAR initially black-flagged Edwards for getting up next to Keselowski on the restart but then rescinded the penalty after the event because Edwards had given Keselowski his position back.(Scene Daily)(5-1-2010)
