NASCAR was forced to briefly stop Sunday's race at Talladega Superspeedway to clean up after a 15-car accident. The accident occurred 47 laps into the race when Paul Menard attempted to pass Trevor Bayne on the outside of a three-wide pack of cars. Kurt Busch was following closely on Bayne's bumper, and the aerodynamics from Menard on the outside and Busch behind him caused Bayne's car to snap around. When you get too close to somebody, it can just pull you right around and it's as much as hitting somebody physically when you get down on their door that tight.'' The race was stopped for 11 minutes because of the accident, which also collected Daytona 500 winner Joey Logano, Kasey Kahne, Kyle Larson and Danica Patrick.
