Chase Elliott who is an American professional stock car racing driver, recently on Sunday, September 27th won the NASCAR’s Roval after hitting the finish line and then hitting the wall in-which was on purpose by the Nascar championing driver.

Elliott got his closure on the turn at the end, indulging in perhaps the first victory lap in the history of racing that ended in a deliberate crash. Elliott failed while leaving on a restart to make the sharp left turn that marks the beginning of Charlotte’s Roval road course before driving straight into the wall, it was entirely intentional, part celebration. The turn nearly cost Elliott his entire race when he drove too deep into the corner and couldn’t get out, while his brakes were locked up while leading the field into the turn after a restart and skidded straight into the wall, with half the race still to go.

With the best car, he managed to fight his way back through the field to the lead, but even Sunday’s winner couldn’t figure out how to make it around that corner when the green flag dropped. In a statement by Elliot, “I don’t know you could have done anything more stupid leading the race than what I did right there.”

Elliot competes full-time in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, driving the No. 9 Chevrolet Camaro, at twenty-three years old, he’s made a number of victories, and is only on his way up in the sport of racing.
