As a Blaney fan I thought I was dreaming watching him pick up spots off pit road for most of the day
And Hassler actually made a good call
Yeah it was weird to see his team make the *right* choice at the end of the race.
He was sooo close
Being a Blaney fan can be stressful usually cause his pot crew and bad luck cause him.
On one hand I’m happy we got that last caution because of the fun finish, but I feel for Harvick, he had the thing won…
I couldn’t stop crying for 2 hours. And I’m a 19 year old man.
Now we do know if we didn’t have the stupid stage stuff in nascar both larson and Byron would be well over a lap on almost every one and about half a lap on 3rd
NASCAR was really quick on the trigger for the Harrison Burton spin.. They wanted a caution bad.
@james carpenter Stage racing basically ruins the point of having a fast long run car, which is one reason it’s unfortunate it’s even a thing to be split in stages.
How about Josh Berry with a Top 10! What a awesome bounce back from last week for him.
Chase Elliott was talking to him all race long.
@BigRooster no he wasn’t he was just talking to the team
Seriously
And he restarted 16th on the final GWC ! And finished 10th ! Awesome !
Considering this is only
his 2nd start in a Next Gen car and his 4th overall Cup start, that’s pretty damn impressive.
I believe I saw bowman now the only driver with all top 10’s. Blake Harris must be treating that team well over at the 48
Points leader baby!
Bowman’s been needing a different crew chief for years!
Yeah, the 48 has had a great start to the season. I hope they can keep it up
Kind of crazy that Jeff Gordon won back to back races twice in 2007, both involving talladega. And he also accomplished that feat 8 times from 2001-2007.
If not for Jimmie, he likely wins that title.
@Easy E Network he had a 400 pt advantage on the rest of the field before the chase started. That would have been 1 of his missing 3 championships if it weren’t for the chase. Heartbreaking as a Gordon fan.
It’s interesting that we got a repeat winner this early in the season. I think the parity is waning and the cream is rising to the top again.
I don’t think so, Byron stole this win despite not being the fastest car. I think theres parody left to see yet this year
I still think there is a good level of parity between the top 25 cars. But Hendrick do seem to be ahead of the game in terms of setup.
i think it’s just variance
Harrison Burton is a prime example of what a driver with money vs driver with real talent looks like.
I mean Matty D could have been better, but Harrison is not showing me much.
The Wood Bros doesn’t exactly have top-tier equipment either
He was rushed to cup showed tons of potential in xfinity
@RTRacing33 he won 0 Xfinity races the year before he moved to cup.
With Byron’s 6th victory, that puts the #24 at 99 wins all-time cup.
Yup. Jimmie has more championships than Jeff Gordon but Gordon had 95ish wins. Jimmie nowhere close. Love seeing the 24 up front.
@Mac 1666 Jeff has 93 wins.
@Mac 1666 Jimmie has 83 wins, which I guess is “nowhere close” but still kinda close to me.
@Vercingetorix4 If that Pocono crash Jimmie had didn’t happened he very well could have 10 more wins seeing that he had 2 wins before that race
Fun Fact: William Byron has won 6 races at 6 different tracks with 6 different paint schemes not to mention that his first win at Phoenix is his first ever Top 5 finish in the desert
On a positive note Harvick ended the day with a 20th consecutive Top 10 at Phoenix! Unreal!!
Always will root for the 24, so seeing Byron doing this well makes me happy!
I thought the bar graph in the lap box was one of the best additions in a long time. Like it a lot.
Fun little addition
I’ve been a big Byron fan since his xfinity days. It’s so nice to see this success.
As someone who was at the race, i think the most exciting part was watching harvick slowly chip at larsons lead and pass him
During that run, Harvick was as far back as 3.5 seconds behind Larson. But by the time the pitstops came around, he was 1.22 seconds behind. Pitted and almost came out ahead of Larson. It was so exciting to watch
As a Hendrick fan I see this as an absolute win. Still feel for Harvick tho
As an HMS fan, it’s kind of fun watching other teams making strides to beat HMS drivers. Knowing how solid HMS is and still see a team put forth a challenge really makes for a good watch. Even when I compete, I don’t hate losing to a better competitor. I only hate not making progress to make it more of a challenge.
BY The way, I Still wanna know where I can get that shirt
I am not a Harvick fan, but he deserved the win today. He searched for the grip, and he worked the traffic well.
Josh Berry with a top 10 was an awesome story. That man has got some skills.
