Kenseth wins crash-marred Sprint Unlimited

ESPN Nascar

Matt Kenseth won the exhibition Sprint Unlimited, a crash-filled kickoff to the NASCAR season.

Kenseth, who was winless in 2014, had one of the strongest cars in the field, and he pulled away on a restart with four laps remaining to claim the win.

Martin Truex Jr. finished second and Carl Edwards, in his debut race for Joe Gibbs Racing, was third.

Reigning NASCAR champion Kevin Harvick exchanged cross words with Joey Logano after the race. Harvick, upset with Logano for how he pushed Harvick’s car in the final laps, spoke with Logano on pit road while wearing his helmet.

The race had two red flags to clean up debris from multi-car accidents, and there were only 12 cars running at the end from a field of 25.
