Edwards wins caution-filled Nationwide race at Road America

Autoracing Betting Lines

06/19/2010 - Elkhart, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Carl Edwards finally performed his celebratory back flip from his car for the first time this NASCAR season after winning Saturday's inaugural Bucyrus 200 Nationwide Series race at Road America.

Edwards dominated the race by leading 35 of 50 laps, but had to overcome several late-race cautions for the win. He drove past Jacques Villeneuve and took the lead for good after a restart with nine laps to go. A caution for an incident involving Stanton Barrett set up a three-lap shootout around the long 4.048-mile, 14-turn road course to the finish.

Villeneuve ran second to Edwards until the Canadian road-course expert suffered engine failure on the final lap. Ron Fellows, also from Canada, took over second, but finished 4.3 seconds behind Edwards.

Brendan Gaughan posted a season-best third-place run, while points leader Brad Keselowski took the fourth spot. Australia's Owen Kelly completed the top-five in his first Nationwide start.

Villeneuve wound up finishing 25th.
