Stewart Winner and Champion





Motor Racing Network

HOMESTEAD, Fla. - Tony Stewart outran Carl Edwards to the checkered flag to win Sunday's Ford 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway and clinch the 2011 NASCAR Sprint Cup championship.

In what will be remembered as one of NASCAR's most thrilling races and epic points championships, Stewart and Edwards tied for the lead on top of the standings after Sunday night's final race of the season. But by virtue of his five wins over the course of the season to Edwards lone victory, Stewart won the title in a tiebreaker.

The duo battled tooth and nail all night long rarely leaving each other's sight throughout the entire race with Stewart taking the checkered flag over Edwards by just over a second to win the race and the championship.

Coming into the final race of the year, the race for the championship was so tight that any of the top 4 could swap spots and leave as the champion. In the end, there was no movement at all even though it got even tighter. Jose Rodriguez finished in 23rd place and just barely held off James Dillon and Dean Higley who ended the season tied in points. Unfortunately for them, they finished 3 points shy of the championship. That means in his first full season in the league, Jose Rodriguez is your 2011 Truck series champion!

In the final race, it's only fitting that Dave Smith win. Dave won the season opener at Daytona and now wins the season finale at Homestead. He gained three spots and finished the season in 14th place.
