Last weekend, all three NASCAR racing series ran a race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

In an overtime win, Alex Bowman crossed the finish line to earn car owner Rick Hendrick his 282nd career win.  Earlier, Hendrick had pledged $200,000 to aid humanitarian efforts in the Ukraine; additionally, Hendrick pledged a $2,000 donation for every lap one of his four drivers led the race.  Thanks to Bowman, Chase Elliott, William Byron, and Kyle Larson that total came to 51 laps and $102,000!  Bowman is the second Hendrick Motorsports driver to win a race this season so far.
