Tastes Great

In the NASCAR Sprint Cup Chase final race, with five time champion Jimmie Johnson having some mechanical issues, Brad Keselowski drove his #2 Miller Lite Dodge Charger to the 2012 Sprint Cup Championship.

This was the first championship for Keselowski, who now joins 2000 Sprint Cup Champion Bobby Labonte as the only drivers to win both the Nationwide and Sprint Cup Championships.

Brad is a neat guy and well deserving, as is his car owner, Roger Penske. Close many times, particularly with Rusty Wallace as a driver, this is the first NASCAR championship for the Captain.

The #48 Lowes Chevrolet team of Jimmie Johnson and crew chief Chad Knaus were very gracious in defeat.

Congratulations to Roger Penske and Bread Keselowski!
