 Ryan Newman Wins Daytona Newman got a final lap push from teammate Kurt Busch, launching both Penske drivers past Tony Stewart. "He (Busch) could have easily gone three-wide and split us through the center and made one heck of a mess there going into three, but he chose to be a teammate," said Newman. The victory means car owner Roger Penske earned his first Daytona 500 victory as a car owner. Busch felt good about helping his team get a one, two finish. "I was very emotional crossing the line finishing second because I know we did something very special for the captain today," said Busch. Tony Stewart thought his Toyota had everything needed for a win. He was disappointed that he had to settle for third. "If you know you've got a car that's fast enough to win and you don't, you're devastated over it," said Stewart.
