DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) – Johnny Sauter wanted to win this race Cheap Tom Brady Jersey , maybe as badly as any other.

Sauter won the season-opening NASCAR Truck Series race and dedicated it to crew chief Joe Shear Jr., whose wife died unexpectedly in late December.

It was Sauter’s 18th victory in 222 starts in the Truck Series. He also won at Daytona in 2013.

MIAMI (AP) – Miami-Dade County is suing former Miami Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria and the new ownership group led by Derek Jeter seeking money from the $1.2 billion sale of the team.
