Cambridge native Matt Kenseth went from first to 14th on the final lap of the Daytona 500 on Sunday.
Kenseth had the lead with less than a half-lap to go when teammate Denny Hamlin tried to make a push. Kenseth tried to block the charge but Hamlin bumped him, forcing Kenseth into the wall. He avoided a crash but slipped to 14th by the time he crossed the finish line.
Hamlin won the race in a photo finish over Martin Truex Jr.
Kenseth started second after his original car was repaired. Paul Menard of Eau Claire moved up from his 37th-place start to finish 18th.
