Daytona 500: Harrison Burton's car flips over in wreck involving Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin and others

Harrison Burton's car did a barrel roll near the end of the first stage of Sunday's Daytona 500.

Burton was running at the front of the outside line with Brad Keselowski behind him. As the drivers exited Turn 2, a shove from Keselowski sent Burton's car into William Byron's on the inside. A big wreck started from there that collected Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin and others.

Burton's car flipped over as soon as it started to get backward down the backstretch. Sunday's 500 is the first points race for NASCAR's new Cup Series car and Burton's crash was the first time a car had spun like that at high speeds.
