The 2007 Autism Speaks 400 presented by Visa was the thirteenth race of the 2007 NASCAR Nextel Cup season.

[1] Ryan Newman won the pole for the second week in a row, with an average speed of 152.925 miles per hour.

Busch was instantly black flagged with the white cross, was fined $100,000 and put on probation for the rest of the year.

During the race, it was announced that Bill France Jr., who was NASCAR's chairman from 1972 to 2003 and its president from 1972 to 2000, had died from cancer at the age of 74 at 1:00 PM EST.

The American flag at Dover was immediately lowered to half-staff and the death was announced over the public address system and on the telecast at lap 261 (right before the accident and confrontation between Busch and Stewart), where Mike Joy's somber tone cast a pall as he called Truex's first-ever Cup win.
