Corey Lajoie’s wallride and flip in the big one was definitely the biggest surprise this race, as another Cars moment is brought to life. I can’t wait to see him talk about it on his podcast

Looked to me like in McDowell’s 2nd block he came down too fast and lost it.

I turned the race off,after the first fuel run.I lost track of the commercials,5-6 commercial breaks in the first 48 laps or so…

@kingsally2864 April 22, 2024 at 1:33 am

cutting to commercial with 4 to go in stage 2 was crazy. they came back with 2 to go and we got to watch exactly 3 minutes of racing before they went to commercial as soon as the stage ended

UPDATE: Erik Jones has been transported to a local hospital after his crash at Talladega. He was initially checked at and released from the infield care center.

I got tired of the Fox broadcast that I listened to the last 30 laps on MRN Radio. It was more exciting.

@DEDBRD-di4yj April 22, 2024 at 5:30 pm

Your right the broadcast is unwatchable. I wish there was a stat that showed how much time was spent on commercials and how much time was spent on the actual race.

This is how Tyler Reddick has to win races this season: by sheer goddamn accident i guess

Reply
@davecarsley8773 April 22, 2024 at 3:40 am

Was it an accident that he was running in the front when someone else crashed?

Reply
@themetalfusionologist April 22, 2024 at 11:45 am

His win was actually a pure GENIUS move. He knew what was about to happen, backed off, got the run & won in perfect fashion.
I’m not a Reddick fan by any means, but that wasn’t an accident, that was pure strategy that worked

With Reddick winning, it was really cool seeing Michael Jordan attend the race and see his car win… also really cool seeing Jordan carry Reddick’s son as well!

I would’ve liked that storyline a bit better if they didn’t completely ignore the finish crash. That was a bad wreck, cars turning over and everything, and all they showed was Reddick’s car.

Brad literally said in the pre race, something to the line of needing luck, you can do everything perfectly with no mistakes, and still not win, his own words spoke very true today.

@ethanwhite5019 April 22, 2024 at 1:41 am

This was my first cup race in person!! It was very exciting coming to each stage end and the last 30 laps. The fuel saving racing was cool to see them 3 wide for so long.
Congrats Tyler Reddick and 23XI
Epic to see MJ there for it too

@TheTweedler April 22, 2024 at 1:45 am

A real shame for Trackhouse. Chastain and Suarez we’re cruising to a 7th and 8th finish. Once the wrecking started Chastain ALMOST thread the needle for a 4th place finish but ultimately both the 1 and the 99 got collected.

@lucnessmonster April 22, 2024 at 1:54 am

Two weeks in a row Chastain has crashed out of a good finish

Hmm I don’t think Ross crashed out, I think he was crashed out. Wrong place, wrong time.

Reply
@eriklatham9384 April 22, 2024 at 10:20 am

Chastain was actually going to finish in about 4th it looks like if McDowell doesn’t wreck.

@boilercoasters8442 April 22, 2024 at 1:53 am

As someone who was at the race in person, it was really cool to be at. The fuel mileage racing didn’t seem to affect my view of it besides the fact that they looked slower and sounded like a lower RPM. I was rooting for McDowell after I got a picture with him this morning but happy for Reddick and MJ. My first visit to Dega was awesome!

If it was anyone other then McDowell id agree. Has he ever not wrecked people at the end of these? Didnt he win a 500 by doing this?

Even the commercials during Xfinity were crazy. Once I saw a Side-by-side-by-side making the race view so small it was like watching it on my phone so they could play two commercials at once.
Absolutely unacceptable.
