HAMPTON, Ga. (AP) - A decision from NASCAR could come as early as today about some kind of punishment against Carl Edwards. Edwards was 156 laps off the lead yesterday when he apparently decided it was time to settle a score with Brad Keselowski. The result was a frightening crash that sent Keselowski's car flying toward the stands at Atlanta Motor Speedway, and put NASCAR's "have at it" philosophy to the test a mere four races into a season that was supposed to let the drivers show more aggression and emotion.
Keselowski escaped the crash unscathed. Edwards faces the possibility of a fine, loss of points or even a suspension for the next race at Bristol in two weeks. There's definitely some history between these guys. Last April, Keselowski and Edwards were racing for the win in a tightly bunched pack at Talladega when their cars got together. Edwards spun into Ryan Newman's path, and the second hit sent Edwards' car soaring toward the main stands.
