Christopher Bell slammed into the inside wall toward the end of the first stage of the NASCAR Talladega race and was able to climb out of the car.

NASCAR has confirmed that it is bringing no change to the superspeedway package for its cars this weekend at Talladega after failed tests leading up to the weekend. Championship contender Christopher Bell has discussed his thoughts ahead of Sunday's race, admitting that he wants more than just a change to the superspeedway package.

The NASCAR field was setting up for a final run to end the opening stage at Talladega, just minutes after three Cup champions collided at pit entry under green. On this restart, Christopher Bell led the outside lane and Chris Buescher led the inside lane. Neither driver would complete another full lap under green.
