Talladega, Ala. -- Brad Keselowski took the lead in the final lap and claimed a dramatic win in Sunday's Aaron's 312 Nationwide Series race at Talladega, Ala., Superspeedway.

Keselowski raced into the lead just before a multi-car crash triggered by Jamie McMurray ended the contest under caution.

McMurray broke away from a last-lap duel with Kevin Harvick but was caught up in a crash that engulfed Dennis Setzer's car in flames. No one was hurt in the accident, which allowed Keselowski to win a Nationwide race at Talladega for the first time.
