we almost had fuel strategy save us from what was been a dirty-air, hard-to-pass, mid-ahh race… instead we get no big nbc, a crashyard, and L officiating ending
It was a W race before the finish imo
Race would have been so much better if their wasn’t any late cautions
Will you upload a video today @DennyDeliversYT?
Hamlin is a washed up bum
@@king_sabastian4697real.
The end of this race was bs nascar needs to be consistent.
Let me just say this. The television situation was just so…so stupid
Segregationist Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race. Kind of big news.
to be fair to NBC, they did have a huge news story to react to.
Now that I have been fair to them, how in the world does the same network that screwed up the Heidi Game make this decision here knowing that they would be done in a half hour. Push the newscast. This isn’t 1994 when you had to be in the same slot every time to see news. Everyone who wanted your analysis of the Biden decision either 1) had already seen it on social media, 2) would have waited the 15 minutes it took to finish the race (which could have led to an opportunity to hook new fans), or both.
If I’m one of the Steves, I’m furious with NBC.
Haven’t they done that twice now ?
I agree, so tired of NBC constantly switching the CUP race to a different channel. You’d never see this with an NFL game in the 4th quarter with the teams tied and 1 min left on the clock lol
@@Continuum7 And you will NEVER see this happen with an NFL game. NBC is NASCAR’s Daddy.
if I had a nickel for every time Ryan Preece spun on an overtime that had him not able to refire and nascar didn’t throw a caution when he spun making a controversial finish in July I’d have 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice
Ryan Preece we need a caution ⚠️ Okay!!
Should be in xfinity series
@@ludabam241Should be in the weekly series. Bro shouldn’t even touch the top 4 series.
But someone scraps the wall and continues on and they throw a caution so inconsistent.
Kyle larson was involved in BOTH of those cautions also !!!! This time he was on the winning side but yes its very interesting
Had Brad won, I think that would have been among the greatest wins in motorsport history. I truly believe he had enough had my guy not spun.
This season has been nothing but pain.
Not a Busch fan but y’all are having a Jeff Gordon 2015 type of season and as a Gordon fan at that time that season was rough
bro that was brads without the yellow, he had enough fuel for those last 3 laps
Brad is the MASTER at saving fuel. I don’t know why the commentators seemed to forget that. I remember Brad several times in the 2 car doing shocking fuel runs all the while leading or chasing someone down. He ia next level at it. Also I am anything but a Keselowski fan lol. But can’t deny when he is good. He might be one oc the most intelligent racers too. He deserves more credit for making a junk team competitive seemingly over night once he showed up.
He stretched the fuel to the 400 mark.Not enough for the OT…Brad is good at saving fuel.
Brad cost Jeff the cup when he wrecked him at Texas he won homestead and would’ve won the cup. So Brad losing is the best thing about this race. K money winning again 23rd to winning is the modern day jeffro death row Gordon he’ll be at 70+ wins and 2-3 cups within the next 7 years
NHRA stayed on FOX 1hr 40min passed the TV window. NBC cut the Brickyard to USA for news that broke before the race started. Great job NBC, see you in 3 weeks. Have a fun Olympic break everyone.
Plus it wasn’t even on peacock
Wasn’t pleased that it was moved to USA network
NASCAR needs to send NBC packing.
Fox to NHRA…we don’t have anything important to cut to at 7pm so if you want to finish the race here we’re all for it
I did they need to stop switching the race for news
1. Nascar officiating needs an overhaul. Too many inconsistent decisions, it changes every week, identical things happen but get called differently each race, even the drivers today couldn’t keep up with the rules nascar enforces, leading to frustrating outcomes as viewers. And unfortunately the calls trend towards the similar drivers and teams which is a whole different topic
2. As a KB fan, I’m at a loss for words at how his season has gone, top 5 in his hands, and he crashed again while just trying to get the best out of his car. So many great finishing positions lost.
ur just mad kb sucks
What sucks most is this race wont be remembered for an all time historic downright Hof worhty drive out of the 5. It will be remembered for mutuple controversy’s that helped the 5, truly frustrating
@@skottydoesntn0o0he drove from 23rd with 30 to go to first .. whatever throttle they were running he drove to first .. stop hating .. he passed Hamlin like he was standing still and Hamlin was going full throttle by then … bad take bro
@@skottydoesntn0o0 considering the fact his own teammate ran 18th that entire stint, the fact that Reddick only made it back to 8th before the shenanigans started, considering I don’t think I saw a single green flag pass in the top 5 all day. I think he did a great job and a HOF drive considering he was passing guys who were going hard as possible when he caught them. I am a hard core hms fan but I am not stupid I know he had it easier then if everyone was going full throttle. But you can put an * against most historic drives in Nascar and no one looks back at them in that way, so why r we doing that here?
@@skottydoesntn0o0root for a better team
@@skottydoesntn0o0not extra fuel lol just smarter planning
Im usually the last person to comment on NASCARS officiating, but I feel like todays race, from start to finish, was just a complete mess
I was so mad the TV went to the news right when overtime happened
Yeah, for “breaking news” that was hours old at that point. I’d rather see the end of the race instead of hearing one more news story about the crypt keeper quitting.
I’m a fan of Larson, but that was a fudging Clown Finish.
Same it was definitely a dumb finish
@@Bak3dGamingYT Didn’t even mean it like that. Meant more they held the caution till Larson took the white. The 41 was not moving at all. The caution should have been called before the white.
@@DeedsPlaysDrums I agree and I’m also a Larson fan lol that’s really all I meant
As a Blaney fan I blame Brad and his crew chief, Ryan was right no way Brad would have enough fuel to finish, I don’t believe he would have been running if at the checkers if Busch’s spin wouldn’t have happened.
@@tylerjones9309 Brad 100% didn’t have enough fuel to make it but the fact that Brad pit right as the green was coming out truly fucked blaney. He knew Larson had a better car and being on the outside was to quote blaney a “death sentence”
Let’s just cut overtime if we have no problem with finishing with a caution
Right? The whole point of that is because we all hated finishing under yellow. We even went to unlimited tries because we hated only having 3. Its so confusing.
Nascar made it very obvious that they were purposely holding the caution until they took the yellow.
NASCAR was following orders from their real Daddy, NBC. NBC tells NASCAR how these things will play out.
You mean white???
Nascars #1 job is to try to run the script, glad some people in the comments seem to be waking up
Yes too many things went down in that race to be a coincidence It was plain as day what was going on.
We had a NASCAR party and every one was screaming for a caution at the end
Everyone was. Even Larson probably was it was that obvious lmao
I’m a Larson fan and even I feel like that was a caution. I also feel like that restart should’ve been called off cause neither one of them knew what to do with literal seconds til the green.
More proof that NASCAR fans dont like racing, they like chaos.
@@Bak3dGamingYTagree because Blaney should of been able to pick the bottom. He went from 2nd to 1st, to 2nd over again in like 4 seconds , they should of RERACKED THEM, after 1 more caution lap !!!
I’m a Larson fan and I’m pissed about it. No consistency from nascar whatsoever. They just didn’t want to have another Nashville situation but in the end we all got robbed. I thought the whole point of the overtime system was to minimize the chances of ending on a caution.
its called poor officiating, not an unlucky situation, nascar has a job to make fair and appropriate calls and they failed to do so multiple times in the race
Their job is coordinate the script with the blackmailed drivers. Look into Jeffery Epstein
They have an ideal situation script they want to run at every race, all the guys in the top rides are in on it
I’ve never been more angry at a TV network. Unfucking believable for people who record the race.
@@danharp7273 I got surfing competition at the moment of the best part of NASCAR today. People complain about fox, but that was waaaaaaaaaay worse
@@danharp7273 wtf was that shirt! Right! I feel ya
I always record the race to watch. Later, I was out working the fields , listening on the radio like I always do and watched it later and can’t be more mad at a network!
Yeah I watch the races recorded and I was so mad, with the 25 min break right before the green flag and the cutting of the last OT, it’s so frustrating to have to go on YouTube to watch the highlights to see the ending.
It was important news, but they already interrupted the pre-race to announce the Joe Biden news. The rest of the story could have waited 15 more minutes!
Congratulations to David Gravel on his first Kings Royal win at eldora, had a great battle with Donny Schatz who came from deep in the field.
Was an awesome race
Congratulations Mr. Gravel Eldora ain’t easy to tame congrats MY Guy
Dirts for racing – asphalt’s for getting there!
Hopefully people realize Todd Gilliland is doing really well and not a failure as many said. This year he keeps surprising with good runs top 15s top 10s and getting closer to the top 20ish in points. So hopefully can see his talent but no one talks of him.
And the IMS announcers need to use his correct name, Todd, not David! It just didn’t happen once, it was several times.
He’s almost beating Busch and RCR in points. That’s incredible
I’m not surprised. It’s the usual now and I love it.
@@connorbingel7134 Hardly, RCR has always been outclassed and it’s been made more apparent now that Chevy isn’t updating their bodyshell and the teams are no longer building their own cars
FRM has just been going up since the start of this era, they’ll be a consistent contender in less than a handful of years
@@Holly2017Rascal They actually called Kyle Busch Kurt 1 time.
Nascar ruined the race, no consistency with the rules. Granted, if Richmond is any indication, Nascar does in fact play favorites. Call it rigged if you want. This is the precedent Nascar chose with their rules enforcement.
If NASCAR doesn’t follow the laws they create. Then they should change the rules. Lower the amount of overtime attempts, explain that you will wave off the restart if that happens again, and make the white line a black and white rule!
They did make the line Black and White. dont go on the racing surface is as clear as it gets
Lower the amount of overtime attempts to zero. They’re fucking stupid and just let totally undeserving drivers win races.
