It finally dawned on me that about five laps from the end the field is all strung out so someone (almost anyone) will "gently tap" the rear corner of a slower car to cause a Caution so the field can bunch up for a final dash to the finish, Duh, now I get it. The amazing thing is how Chase Elliot managed a dash from fourth to first in two laps! At least the NASCAR rules give points for "Laps Led" so it is some racing rather than just a bunched up dash but I guess the fans like the final dash!
