Dale Jr. drove for Budweiser for eight years, from 2000-2007, and for his last race thus Sunday at Homestead, he's driving a replica of that vehicle containing the same color codes.

The tribute includes highlights of Dale Jr's wins at The Winston in 2000, his 2004 sweep at Bristol Motor Speedway and the 2004 Daytona 500. The video  also spends significant time on his Daytona victory on July 6, 2001, which came just five months after Dale Sr's death during the Daytona 500.
