Carl Edwards finally has his shot at redemption. Will Denny Hamlin get his as well?
In 2011, Edwards was in the heart of the NASCAR Sprint Cup championship battle through the end of the finale. He entered the race three points ahead of Tony Stewart and led the most laps in the final race. But Stewart held him off in the end, and the one-two finish left them tied in the points. Edwards lost the title on a tiebreaker.
Now, he gets a chance to fight for the title once more, this year against Jimmie Johnson and two as yet undecided contenders.
