Dale Earnhardt Jr completed a NASCAR Sprint Cup season sweep at Pocono Raceway by taking victory in the Gobowling.com 400 on Sunday.
Earnhardt Jr took the lead on the final restart with three laps remaining and held on the chequered flag to clinch his third race win of the season.
The 39-year-old held off the hard-charging Kevin Harvick to become the first driver to win both of the races at Pocono since Denny Hamlin eight years ago.
The win also marked the fifth consecutive time a Hendrick Motorsports driver has taken the win at the 2.5-mile superspeedway.
Harvick followed Earnhardt Jr home in second position, with Joey Logano third while Clint Boywer and Greg Biffle completed the top five.
