Gas gamble: Carl Edwards captures fuel-mileage win in Coca-Cola 600

19 Joe Gibbs Racing gambled and won Sunday night’s Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, stretching their final tank of fuel an incredible 62 laps to score the victory. While the six-time series champion was unhurt, the same couldn’t be said for his car, which he subsequently drove to the garage but later returned to the race with following extensive repairs. “We just had a really loose race car,” Johnson said.
