Runner Up:
Dale Earnhardt Jr
Venue:
Daytona International Speedway
Jamie McMurray led for only two laps, but they were important laps as he held off Dale Earnhardt Jr at the very end to win the 2010 Daytona 500.
The race endured two stoppages of over two hours total to patch a pothole between turns 1 and 2. Late in the race there were several accidents that put into place NASCAR's "green-white-checker" policy.
