Rookie Juan Pablo Montoya (image) won his first career NASCAR race on Sunday in Mexico City, but not without plenty of controversy. Montoya was accused of driving dirty by several drivers, chiefly his teammate Scott Pruett who lost the lead to Montoya after the Colombian bumped Pruett’s car with eight laps to go. Montoya was apologetic after the race though Mexican fans were thrilled that he became the first Hispanic in history to win a NASCAR race.
