Ricky Stenhouse Jr. triggered a 16-car crash on lap 20 of 160 at the Coke Zero 400 in Daytona.

The 26-year-old from Mississippi lost control of his car coming out of turn 4 and took Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart with him in his fall, blocking the track for the rest of the field near the start-finish line.

Other drivers involved were Kevin Harvick, Danica Patrick, Marcos Ambrose, Matt Kenseth, Trevor Bayne, Kyle Larson, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Denny Hamlin, Brad Keselowski, AJ Allmendinger, Michael Waltrip, Johnson and Carl Edwards.

The incident slowed the race down even more, after the event had already been postponed from Saturday night to Sunday morning.
