Jamie McMurray pulled off one of the biggest upsets in NASCAR history when he won in only his second Cup race at Charlotte in 2002 as the replacement driver for Sterling Marlin.
Marlin, who cracked a neck vertebra in a crash at Kansas, won at Charlotte in 2001 with the same Coors Light Chip Ganassi Dodge. With little experience driving a highly funded racecar, McMurray was under immense pressure — a similar stress Alex Bowman faces as the fill-in driver for Dale Earnhardt Jr.
