Michael Waltrip Racing was ( supposedly ) trying to get Marty Truex into the Chase . As the race wound down to a conclusion , Clint Bowyer ( supposedly) spun on purpose and teammate Brian Vickers was called to the pits , to shake up the running order and give another teammate Marty Truex a chance to get a few extra points to get into the Chase . Confused ? So were all of us !
At the time of this incident , Ryan Newman was leading and " in the Chase " if he could hold his position for a few more laps ...but his pit crew couldn't get him out in the lead and he fell back far enough to allow Truex to get into the Chase just ahead of Newman . Then Nascar stepped in after listening to various replays of in car radios and determined that there was collusion to change the race outcome .

To err is human, to blame it on somebody else shows management potential.
