    The article contains an appeal to authority fallacy when it states 'The No. 5 car was declared the winner by a thousandth of a second -- every bit as close as the Kentucky Derby a day earlier.' This statement implies that because the Kentucky Derby was also very close, this race being close is significant or definitive proof of Larson's win. However, this does not logically follow and is an appeal to authority fallacy.
