Christopher Bell races to 3rd straight NASCAR Xfinity victory

AMES, Iowa -- Christopher Bell made history Saturday at Iowa Speedway -- even though nearly everything that could go against him did down the stretch.

Bell moved back out front in overtime to win a wild NASCAR Xfinity series race on Newton's bull ring, becoming the first series regular with three straight victories since Dale Earnhardt Jr. in 1999.

Coming off victories in Kentucky and New Hampshire, Bell led 94 of 257 laps. He broke a tie with Cup driver Kyle Larson for the series season victory lead with four.

"When it's your day, it's your day," Bell said.
