The video features highlights from the Xfinitys first outing of the newly formed IMS road course. Indiana local Chase won the race and had a very emotional celebration. He climbed the fences and kissed the bricks just like his racing hero and team owner Tony Stewart.

After that, the video features the unfortunate incident which took the Brickyard victory away from Hamlins grasp. A tire failure ended his run with just a few laps to go. Before the incident, Denny was pushing hard to keep his lead and the high downforce track took a heavy toll on his tires. He himself admitted in an interview with NASCARs website. He said that he was pushing the tires hard and it was a gamble which turned against him.

Hamlin said, Its kind of roulette if youre going to get one that will stay together or not and mine didnt. You saw the end result.

Additionally, Stewart-Haas racing had a memorable week as the team won both the Xfinity and Cup race with Briscoe and Harvick. Both the drivers paid tribute to the legendary team owner Tony Stewart and climbed the fences of the prestigious track.
