DOVER, Del. _ Ryan Newman probably didn't have the strongest car in Sunday's MBNA Armed Forces Family 400 at Dover International Speedway. His No. 12 Dodge wasn't even working right, after its power steering went away in the middle of the race.

No matter.

Newman still had enough to win the NASCAR Winston Cup race, holding off Jeff Gordon, Bobby Labonte and a very fast - and apparently very irritated - Tony Stewart.

Newman, who started the race from the pole, took control after a pit-road mistake cost Stewart on Lap 138. Stewart had led 67 laps and appeared to have the fastest car in the field.

But when a NASCAR official determined the right-front of Stewart's Chevrolet had skidded a few inches past his pit box and into Gordon's, he was a penalized a lap.

Stewart didn't stick around after the race to talk about what happened, but his crew chief, Greg Zipadelli, did.
