Busch, Edwards appear to have put Richmond issue in past


VOTE: Edwards’ last lap move at Richmond — clean or dirty?



Reigning Sprint Cup Series champion Kyle Busch and Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Carl Edwards appear to have buried the hatchet after the finish of the Sprint Cup race at Richmond International Raceway two weekends ago.


To refesh your memory, Edwards won his second straight race for JGR on April 24, doing so with a last-lap bump-and-run on Busch, who was seeking his third victory in four Cup events.


As of this past weekend at Talladega Superspeedway, the pair still had yet to talk to try to resolve any tension. But on Wednesday morning, Busch tweeted a photo of the pair holding a signed award with M&Ms — one of Busch’s sponsors — on it and the language, “Congratulations on your win,” and the Toyota Owners 400 race logo.
