How would you have handled the Chase Elliott situation?

It’s a good chance for him

Can you really consider Corey Lejoie a real regular weekly driver. I mean this guy is not as good as one half of the infinity drivers. This is a double penalty putting this guy in a top level car.

Reply
Jack Keithley May 31, 2023 at 12:11 pm

@William Young the guy has never had a chance in anything other that a middle of the field car. He’s outperforming his equipment every week. I’d love to see him in a top ride.

Reply
Paul Appel May 31, 2023 at 3:45 pm

He’s in a low tier team doing better in points than guys in top equipment but ok.

Hamlin needs to learn that you kick a sleeping dog sooner or later you’re gonna get bit! Has too much on his plate Bubba, running into other drivers, throwing tantrums.

You people need Bubba in your minds so much you talk about him in an incident that completely doesn’t involve him. Gosh, y’all love bubba so much.

I’m all the way on the other side of the country but I can smell Charlotte from here. Denny over driving his car and taking the air of of Chases car to rattle can him into the wall was Denny’s plan B if he couldn’t make that pass that never had a chance. This is pure BS to set Chase out for this. He was gathering his car up and Denny’s plan B was weak.

This is sad. He turned him over frustration. I don’t like denny anymore than you, but golden boy can’t always be golden

How do you feel about Bubba Wallace right rear hooking Kyle Larson last year and getting suspended ?

Reply
Robert Stone May 31, 2023 at 11:57 am

​@Wyatt Jacobsonhe is your typical Nascar fan when my driver does it it was an accident and you can’t hold that against him. When driver I don’t like dose it it was clearly intentional and he needs to be parked for at least a month. You can’t say NASCAR fans don’t ride and die with their driver.

Zachprodnfl. May 31, 2023 at 1:25 pm

@Robert Stone well I’ve seem chase fans say if was the right thing to penalize him

Reply
Jessie L May 31, 2023 at 2:47 pm

Plus Dennys still mad they took away his win last year and gave it to Chase

Reply
Chuck norris May 31, 2023 at 2:23 am

You guys wonder why you lose fan but you don’t let drivers drive. You go off data suspend penalize every little thing. I hope this sport goes on the downward spiral.

That wasn’t driving, that was intentional wrecking

Just stop watching. Go watch cage fighting if you love violence that much.

Reply
Paul Appel May 31, 2023 at 3:41 pm

Every driver who does this should get suspended. These guys can’t make contact anymore without losing their minds and wrecking people anymore. These guys have no self control.

When carl Edwards flipped brad kesolowski on purpose at atlanta he didn’t get suspended

NASCAR was very much different then im applauding nascar for this change in attitude and perhaps consistency.

Reply
Rowdy Busch May 31, 2023 at 4:46 am

Before the data and that was a 2 way street they both did it

Reply

That was 10 years ago. Bubba Wallace got suspended for the same thing last season. You can’t right rear hook someone on purpose anymore. You will get suspended.

Define “woke” and why nascar is going woke

Reply

​@protaluk(origiñal)they’re going woke because they punished his favorite driver for doing something that if someone else had done that to his favorite driver he would want them suspended

Even Dale SR wouldn’t try to kill another driver don’t ever compare them

Dale Sr did not right rear hook people in the tri oval what are you talking about

If Ross Chastain had done that to somebody who ran him up into the wall you guys would be crucified him.

Get ready for way more competitive racing. Over half the field has a real chance of winning every week instead of just two teams.

Nascar might have heard Rick say we are not gonna take it. Bubba attacked Kyle Larson after the wreck, how is that the same old man?

Reply

He wasn’t penalized for attacking Larson he was penalized for right hooking him into the wall. The amount of cope is unreal.

Denny Hamlin needs to learn how to go around a turn without laying on the car beside him

He was literally out of the gas trying to stay off of chase he was obviously tight

​@Zachprodnfl. Once again, he needs to learn how to drive into a corner!

Brent Fleenor May 31, 2023 at 12:13 pm

I could be wrong, but don’t remember Hamlin getting suspended when he purposely wrecked Chase @ Martinsville a couple of years ago….yeah, NASCAR keeping ‘consistent’ for sure…..and on a side note, Elton Sawyer as….COMPETITION DIRECTOR?!?!?! Guy was anything BUT competitive…best finish was high 30’s at best…..you’re keeping it consistent alright…..you’re furthering the dismantling of the sport

Reply
Zachprodnfl. May 31, 2023 at 1:36 pm

This suspension is mainly part to stop this from happening

@Zachprodnfl. …I get that Bro….but I echo the comment from someone on the thread…..LET THE DRIVERS sort it out….

@Brent Fleenor the thing is I’m fine with retaliations but you can’t do what chase did

Reply
Brent Fleenor May 31, 2023 at 2:26 pm

@Zachprodnfl. I agree totally. Scratchin’ a guys back bumper or sucking the air out from under the car is completely different than turning down on a dude…..

There’s a bunch of people that didn’t get suspended for wrecking people on purpose with this new gen car like come on like Ross should must definitely should have been suspended for a race cuz of how many people he’s wrecking

Reply
Jeffery Fowler May 31, 2023 at 1:05 pm

Thats funny for Denny to say what he said. He’s done his fair share of dumping people.

Denny and his racer Bubba wreck people all the time intentionally and its ok, but when it happens to him he has a problem with it LOL

Bubba got suspended

Reply
chad cleary May 31, 2023 at 2:09 pm

If that’s what Nascar feels they need to do whatever. This plus not getting a handle on Bubba Wallace is not helping the sport. Protecting the sports most hated driver while suspending the most popular driver? Yeah good job Nascar.

Reply
EclecticHillbilly May 31, 2023 at 3:02 pm

If they want to suspend him so be it, but if they want to be consistent (since they don’t), they’ll need to suspend somebody every week as drivers running over other people has been escalating since they let Dale Sr get away with it back in the 80s.
