Driving Bass Pro car, Austin Dillon survives crash

Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the Coke Zero 400 early Monday morning, but the finish of the race was marred by a crash that sent Austin Dillon's car sailing into the catchfence at Daytona International Speedway.

Dillon, who was driving a Bass Pro Shops-branded vehicle in the NASCAR race, walked away from the crash. Track president Joie Chitwood III confirmed 13 fans were examined and eight declined treatment. Of the five treated, one was transported to a local hospital, treated and released. The other four were treated at the infield care center, according to USA Today.

The fence was torn down where Dillon hit, and his car was struck again as drivers scattered.
