Carnage is expected when the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series visits Talladega Superspeedway, but usually not as much as we saw on Sunday. From the drop of the green flag to the end of the race, the drivers ran every lap like it was the last. The fans in the stands we’re treated to quite the spectacle – with three and four-wide racing, daring moves and superhero-like blocks from drivers desperate for a win.
But great racing can sometimes lead to destruction, and some of the team owners’ wallets were hit very hard by the time the checkered flag dropped.
