Gordon makes costly Daytona mistakes
Published 7/6/2008 at FOXSports.com News for NASCAR
Jeff Gordon was in position for his 14th victory at Daytona International Speedway on Saturday night.
Then he made two costly mistakes.
First, Gordon moved up the track and allowed eventual winner Kyle Busch to pass him for the lead with four laps to go in the Coke Zero 400. Then, the four-time Cup Series champion had a sluggish restart with two laps remaining and got spun into the infield when he tried to block Carl Edwards.
