RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- Carl Edwards passed Elliott Sadler with one lap to go after a green-white-checker restart in overtime Friday night, depriving the Virginia native of his first victory in his home state.

Sadler, who grabbed the lead from Johnny Sauter with seven laps to go in the Funai 250, appeared to have a left front tire that was losing air as he circled the track during the 13th and final caution, producing the extra laps.

Once the race went back to green to allow one chance for the drivers to settle it on the track, Sadler held the lead for almost all of the first lap until Edwards passed him inside at the start-finish line.

The victory was the second for Edwards in just 14 career starts in the Busch Series, and deprived Sadler of what would have been a cherished win. Edwards is 180 points ahead of Clint Bowyer in the series standings. More
