The fact that Austin Dillon united JOEY LOGANO, DENNY HAMLIN and their fans against him is honestly impressive

This right here. Anybody in Austin’s shoes would have done the same, he performed so well all day and he wasn’t going to let one mistake take away what is likely RCR’s last and maybe only chance at a playoff spot this year.

Seeing as how 95% of fans hate Hamlin or Logano and 90% of those hate both of them, Dillon will be the Hero of NASCAR for the rest of the year and then announce his retirement.

“Idk what we are doing anymore.”

This should have been said back in 2014 after Newman fenced Larson on the last lap at Phoenix to get to the Final 4.

This should have been penalized & admonished in 2014.

What did people think would happen over time since this “championship system” was announced in 2014?

Blame the system, not the drivers who don’t get policed…

@rlakhani4109 August 13, 2024 at 12:16 pm

Yes. After this happened in 2014, NASCAR should have said that anybody who does a move like this again will be credited with a last place finish. And then they should have followed through if it happened again.

I don’t agree with people saying to take away Austin Dillon’s win here. They have allowed people doing whatever it takes to win for so long that they have sent a message to drivers that this is ok

100%. This playoff system is BS. Drivers like Truex who has a decent, consistent season are going to get cheated out of a playoff run because of a $hit sandwich driver like Dillon literally intentionally wrecked other cars for a win.

It’s like how yall complained about Matt in 03 now we have a mess we have with the points. Once again the fans ruining the sport is all I see here.

@SortaNonymous August 12, 2024 at 8:20 pm

I wouldn’t be shocked if NASCAR responded to this like how they responded to the Hail Melon, essentially being like, “Okay, that was crazy and memorable and we’ll have it on all our playoff promos, but maybe one of these is enough.”

Dillon gets the blame on this, because he was running a much lower line for his dumping of Logano. So once again, Dillion put himself in that spot for using a D-Bag move to being with.

This is 100% on Nascar for letting drivers get away with this go on for long and drivers will take it as far as you can! 2nd problem for Nascar is you win, and you are in for playoff, drivers deep in the point have nothing to lose by doing this. Danny Hamlin put it best in his post-race interviews. I do not like what Auston did, but I do understand why he did it, because it was his once chance to change what has been God awful season for him and RCR racing! I have been watching the sport since 1977 and lot of recent change is what lead to what happed Sunday night in Richmond
