Joey Logano wins wild finish in The Clash at Daytona

Joey logano wins his first Clash race at Daytona International Speedway on Sunday, as Kyle Busch and Alex Bowman finished second and third.

Denny Hamlin and Brad Keselowski made contact on the final lap while battling for the lead, spinning off track and out of the top-two running positions, allowing Logano to squeeze by for the win.

Danica Patrick nabbed a fourth-place result, while her Stewart Haas Racing teammate Kevin Harvick finished fifth.

Logano led the race at the end of the first of the race's two segments on lap 25. But just a few laps before on lap 18, Kurt Busch turned hard into the wall after contact from Jimmie Johnson to bring out the caution.

Johnson brought his car down for repairs, as Kurt Busch's day was over.

Later in the race, on lap 49, Johnson would spin, the Martin Truex, Jr. would spin on lap 60.

Kyle Busch rebounded from a speeding penalty from the caution that ended the first segment.
