Or, just don't cut in too much (which was the problem). He blew his line.
Shame. NASCAR had way too many cautions that race. Ambrose shoulda run away and had the win.
yeah a 2 time Australian V-8 champion probably wouldn't do that unless he was under pressure by Crazy Carl, way too many cautions, and i was actually rooting for carl because i saw him race at a local dirt track every week, but among the toyota drivers, Ambrose is my favorite

The only excuse I can imagine is that with Ambrose and Edwards nose to tail going down the straight, some aero drafting was working, and both of them reached higher speeds that a lone car could. Maybe just two, three MPH more, but it could have led to Ambrose overshooting the corner by just a few feet, and out of position for the next, where he mounted the curb big time.
