NASCAR fans were left holding their breath late in Saturday night's Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona after Josh Berry's car flipped in a crash and Austin Caldwellslammed into a wall after skidding along on its roof.

The crash happened with just two laps to go, with Berry competing at the front. Berry's No. 4 Ford got loose when he was contacted by the No. 2 of Austin Cindric. Berry's car swerved down hard to its left, catching air and getting tossed onto its roof. It rode along its roof for a moment before it careened into an interior barrier of the track. The impact caused the car to spin on its roof for a while before it finally came to a stop.

A red flag was waved and crews rushed out to assist Berry. Thankfully, Berry was seemingly fine.

Eventually, after the car was righted, Berry climbed out under his own power and gave a thumbs-up. He was released from the infield care center and even did an interview with NBC before the green flag was waved again.

Berry told NBC he was "all good." The wreck "probably wasn't as bad as it looked," he said.

Harrison Burton went on to win the race in a thrilling finish.
