Jimmie Johnson Wins Despite Tire Problems

Jimmie Johnson had another victory at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. He won just in time because one of his tires decided to explode near the finish line. Over the weekend NASCAR was miffed when one of its best events was derailed due to tire problems.

Goodyear’s product was unable to withstand driving 10 or more laps at a time -which caused chaos during the Brickyard 400. The whole thing ended when Johnson passed Carl Edwards during the end of a seven lap run to finish.
