There is a rule at Daytona and Talladega that states if a driver goes below the yellow line and advances his position the driver will be sent to the rear of the field.
Last October the same scenario happened at the finish. Regan Smith was attempting to pass Tony Stewart at the same spot where yesterday's crash was.
This time Stewart blocked Smith but instead of hitting Stewart, Smith went below the yellow line and crossed the finish line ahead of Stewart.
Regan smith was penalized to the last car on the lead lap and Tony Stewart was given the win.
