In a rare outburst of anger, four-time NASCAR Cup champion Jeff Gordon got out of his wrecked race car, crossed the Texas Motor Speedway track and walked up to the other driver involved in the accident, Jeff Burton, and shoved the fellow veteran before NASCAR officials could separate the two drivers. The accident happened just as a caution flag flew on lap 192 of the 334-lap Sprint Cup Series race for a one-car incident involving Martin Truex Jr. elsewhere on track. Gordon and Burton had been racing hard for 18th place prior to the yellow flag and Gordon pulled his No. 24 DuPont Chevrolet alongside Burton's Chevy as the field slowed to show his displeasure with Burton. Burton said he was just trying to pull back up alongside Gordon and motion an apology and then -- as he saw it -- the two cars just became entangled. "I honestly don't know what happened, but it's 100 percent my fault,'' Burton said. "I pulled up to let him know he was right and I don't blame him for being mad.''

Ferrari says it must keep focused on its own performance in Abu Dhabi - rather than worry about what Red Bull Racing is up ? if it is to help Fernando Alonso win the world championship. Alonso needs just a second place finish in the season finale to guarantee himself the crown ? and could finish lower down if nearest rival Mark Webber does not win. Although there are a number of scenarios that could unfold this weekend, Ferrari team principal Stefano Domenicali says his team must keep it simple and not get lost in the mathematics of the situation.
