TALLADEGA — Kyle Busch won at Talladega Superspeedway, coasting to victory Sunday when a caution came out on the final lap and froze the field.

It allowed Busch to slowly make his way across the finish line for his second Sprint Cup win of the season, and seventh overall spanning NASCAR's top three series.

Juan Pablo Montoya finished second for his career-best finish on an oval since moving to NASCAR from Formula One. Denny Hamlin, Busch's teammate at Joe Gibbs Racing, was third.

Tony Stewart, Gibbs' third driver, led a race-high 61 laps but was once again denied a Talladega Cup win when he wrecked with 14 laps to go. He's 0-for-20 at Talladega.
