Marcos Ambrose led a race-high 60 of 76 laps to only once again lose at Montreal. He hit his marks all day except on the final lap when he wheel hopped the last corner giving Edwards the break that Edwards needed to make the pass to win.

“It was wild,” Edwards said. “I thought the whole time Marcos was going to get away with this thing. I broke away from Andrew (Ranger), and I just gave it everything I had on that last lap, and Marcos just made that one mistake through the curves at the end and gave me the chance to get by.”

“I made a mistake at the end there and just lost it,” Ambrose said. “Carl put pressure on in the hairpin. He got a great run, and it turned into a drag race. I couldn’t make the turn, bounced off the curb, and Carl slings shotted the corner. When you’re on the wrong side of it, it’s pretty tough.”

Ambrose scored a runner-up finish followed by NASCAR Canadian Tires Series driver Andrew Ranger, Jacques Villeneuve, Brad Keselowski, Tony Raines, Jean Francois Dumoulin, Stephen Leicht, Brendan Gaughan and Kyle Busch completed the top 10.

With 16 to go, rain hit prompting a 5 minute caution so teams could make the necessary changes so the cars could race in the rain. It wasn’t too heavy of a shower, but it seemed to create tricky racing and perhaps was a catalyst for a few cautions that soon followed. There were 11 cautions for 31 laps and 7 lead changes among 4 drivers: Marcos Ambrose, Andrew Ranger, Jacques Villeneuve and Carl Edwards, whom all finished in the top 4.
