Jimmie Johnson's quest for back-to-back wins in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series ended when he crashed into the wall during the final laps of Stage 2 at Pocono on Sunday.
Johnson had brake issues, and he suffered a scary crash into the wall. Jamie McMurray wasn't far behind, and it appeared as if McMurray ran over something from Johnson's car, which caused issues for him as well.
