The annual spring race at Talladega Superspeedway delivered another thrilling finish over the weekend, as Austin Cindric edged out the field to win the Jack Link’s 500.
But as is often the case at Talladega, the biggest stories weren’t confined to the track.
This year, several Alabama Crimson Tide football stars made the short trip from Tuscaloosa to the track, which produced some great content throughout the weekend.
Some of the players got to meet superstar driver Chase Elliot:
