At the end of 510.72 miles, Hamlin outraced Kurt Busch for third place by .006 seconds\u2014roughly two feet\u2014to score the exact number of points he needed to eliminate Dillon from the Chase on a tiebreaker.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">Logano, who won for the second time this season, the second time at Talladega and the 16th time in his career, entered the race on the Chase bubble but settled the issue by leading the final 45 of 192 laps\u2014after Chase hopefuls Martin Truex Jr. and Brad Keselowski fell out with blown engines and failed to survive the Round of 12.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">&#8220;It\u2019s never a layup here at Talladega,&#8221; Logano said. &#8220;It\u2019s always close. You never get a big lead. (Crew chief) Todd (Gordon) made some good adjustments during the race and found some speed in the car, so that was pretty neat to see some of that.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6300\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"6300\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/racedaysa.com\/index.php\/2016\/10\/23\/logano-advances-with-win-in-wild-talladega-race-chase-field-cut-to-eight\/nascar-sprint-cup-series-hellmanns-500-7\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/racedaysa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Talladega2_NSCS_Logano_CheckeredFlag_102316-e1477271305344.jpg?fit=625%2C383&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"625,383\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;NASCAR via Getty Images&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D4&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;TALLADEGA, AL - OCTOBER 23:  Joey Logano, driver of the #22 Shell Pennzoil Ford, takes the checkered flag to win the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Hellmann&#039;s 500 at Talladega Superspeedway on October 23, 2016 in Talladega, Alabama.

(Photo by Jerry Markland\/Getty Images)<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p2\">Notes: Both Logano and Hamlin benefited from the first caution of the race, called on Lap 42 when Truex\u2019s blown engine dropped oil on the track. Logano had made a complete circuit with a jack lodged underneath his car. Hamlin had just drawn a pass-through penalty for speeding on pit road during a green-flag stop. The caution for Truex\u2019s engine failure prevented both drivers from losing a lap. &#8230; Logano earned top seeding in the Round of 8, followed by Johnson, Harvick, Kenseth, Edwards, Hamlin, Kurt Busch and Kyle Busch. All eight drivers start the round with points reset to 4,000. &#8230; Scott\u2019s second-place finish was his first top 10 in 49 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series starts. It was also the first top 10 of the season for Richard Petty Motorsports. &#8230; Hamlin and Dillon tied for the final spot in the Round of 8 with 3,078 points each. Hamlin won the tiebreaker on the strength of his third-place finish on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><em>Additional photos posted below race results.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Race &#8211; Hellmann&#8217;s 500<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Talladega Superspeedway<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Talladega, Alabama<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><b>Sunday, October 23, 2016<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 1.
