NASCAR: Coke Zero 400 crashfest Red-Flagged with 21 laps to go
They were crashing like wankers all race long during the Coke Zero 400 and finally a really big wreck hit in Turn 1 just as the rain started.
Almost every car remaining in the race was involved, but the seas parted for Austin Dillon, and he came through in the lead using the apron as the caution flew.
Dillon was a lap down at one point in the race.
The heavens then opened up and the race was red-flagged with 21 to go. Plenty of time to try and get it restarted.
