NASCAR Penalizes Austin Dillon, Sets New Precedent
66 comments
*close enough, welcome back encumbered wins.*
I bet Pop Pop is real proud of his buddy now.
I’m sure he is. Dillon still got the W
That’s Hilarious!
@@TheHighRoad1748 I don’t root for Dillon to win so unbiased opinion
@@DonChron419 But useless except that asterisk in the record book and his 31st points position
And with Dillon’s encumbered victory, Bubba Wallace is now three points to the good, while Buescher and Chastain are tied for the final spot, and Gibbs is 18 points to the good.
These next three races are going to be totally pivitol.
Edit: RCR is planning to appeal, but I don’t think they’re going to win it.
Yeah because he’s so upset but chances they won’t get appealed
“DEY PENLIZED AUSTIN TO MAKE SURE BUBBLES MAKES DA PLAYOFFS”
There is a speedway.
@@JackLikesTrackhouse
Hey, numbnuts, he was already above the cut line. Same amount as now, but it helped the 2 cars behind him.
Just go back to your trailer park and be yelling at your sisterwife to get you a sammich and a beer.
They got lucky on setup/speed once so far this season. Good luck lol.
Reminder that none of this happens if Wrecky Spinhouse didn’t run out of talent
Busch accurately named him. Wrecky Spinhouse is a menace behind the wheel of a cup car.
He didn’t run out of talent he never had any
Or Ricky did it on purpose!
Ricky could have been the mastermind of the whole thing, he knew Dillon was coming up behind him.
he really is a waste of a seat in the cup series.
first year tuning into a NASCAR season. this whole year has been nuts imo
This definitely seems a bit… much, this season lol but even any other year there’s rarely ever a break in the drama
Some of the craziness this year has come from good close finishes…..so its not all bad craziness, but yea there were some quite anonymous years in the 2010s when I wasn’t paying attention, but I’ve been back as a fan the last 2-3 years and aside from the new car at a few tracks where they haven’t figured out the racing yet, boredom is definitely not an issue anymore. Hope you enjoy the rest of it…..btw got a driver yet?
@@extragoogleaccount6061 the close CLEAN finishes have been lit as hell i personally find it more entertaining than wrecking folks. def rooting for RFK, brads turned the ship around crazy fast. would love to see truex get one last win, hoping reddick gets more wins, and lowkey been rooting for blaney since his road rage somehow makes him better at driving
rocking with the trackhouse folks too viva saurez!
This year has absolutely had so many insane finishes. The closest 1-2-3 finish ever, closest 1-2 finish ever, finishes in wet conditions at New Hampshire and Chicago, there was Bell blowing an engine and then Blaney running out of gas at Gateway, and I know there have been more insane races that come down to the final lap or two.
Fair enough for Dillon. Fair enough on Logano too. NASCAR needs to address all the non essential personnel on pit row immediately after the race while the cars are “cooling down”
Yes, and the SVP of NASCAR admitted this too.
Agreed I think this was the best decision on the whole deal
This definitely not fair to Dillion..
Like him or not he won the race and by NASCAR own rules that makes him eligible for the playoffs…
NASCAR is just protecting the playoff system and 23XI changes of getting bubba in , maybe Ross or one them guys not in 32nd position.
A one week suspension is what was called for,, not this
Absolutely they do and do it publicly very soon cause everyone saying it’s a rule so they need to acknowledge that all them people broke the rules and be sure it doesn’t happen again at the next race after a win
@@alexlunsford6562 everyone keeps saying a rule was broken , but I didnt hear NASCAR bring up anything Dillion did being against any written rule.
I originally thought the suspension was due to the contact with Hamlin but that doesn’t really make sense, Joey was the leader at the time the entire situation started.
There no rule against dive bombing, bumping a guy outta the way or even taking that corner at a higher rate of speed.
There also no rule about having to give up because your 2 or 3 car lengths behind.
I’m very interested in how the #3 will appeal this decision..
Yea but Nascar will use footage of this. To promote the next Richmond race.
@@patriotchuck112 they already are. “Look at this exciting finish”
Just like Chastain’s hail mellon
So?
@@WhatAboutTheBeeit’s not like the steeplechase is it?
The timing of this penalty could not have been any worse for RCR… literally they posted an Austin Dillon hype video celebrating his win minutes before the penalty was announced
Lmao they got got. Sucks to suck.
Agreed with NASCAR. Even agree with the 50K fine on Joey. And I totally agree with removing civilians from the hot pits. One more thing- can we get the kids off the track, out of the cars and the rest? Again, can we get back to racing? Maybe we need to ask WWCTD?* What would Curtis Turner do?
That won’t happen. The drivers coming through the ranks now have been racing for 10 to 15 years before they get into any upper level. Most 18 year olds have been racing for 13 years. 12 year olds are running late models in the lower ranks.
WWWCSD
What would Winston Cup Series do?
.
Joey needs a WAY bigger penalty. Bubba got $75k for less than Logano did
In the early days of Iowa Speedway, drivers would drive through the fan walk walk area to the winner’s circle, separated from pedestrians by orange cones. Brad Keselowski ended that when he celebrated an Xfinity (then Nationwide) win with a hundred yard burnout through a crowd of paying customers. It was way out of line and incredibly dangerous.
I’m convinced Ricky caused that caution on purpose . Well played sir
Again!!!
Suspension for altering the playoffs?
I agree, but I think it was because he wanted to crash Dillon.
If he did he should be suspended like boyer was when he spun at Richmond to knock jeff out of playoffs you can’t have it both ways saying well done to ricky but then being pissed about dillion
Michael Mrucz explained it best, they put drivers into stupid situations because of the playoff format they are using
they’re making rules up as they go.
Yeah
Ikr they basically forced the 3 to run at the back of the pack all season and then drive like an absolute moron when he finally saw the front of the field for the first time in years… crazy
If you take away the system NASCAR created by having endless overtime restarts to make “dramatic” finishes, Dillon still wins the race, none of this ever happens, and all is normal and fine. This is a DIRECT result of Nascar system of not finishing under yellow and the lack of drawing a line in the sand with contact and wrecking drivers the last several years. I feel for Dillon. I am not saying I liked his actions, but I feel like he is getting a punishment that doesn’t match the problem. NASCAR LOVES this attention, but keeps the 3 from the playoffs even tho he was the best car on the track and leading with 2 laps to go. Then say they have to “protect the integrity of the playoffs” then let drivers in the playoffs by winning a race on a rain shortened super speedway who is so clearly NOT a fast car that day. Hypocritical to the core.
100% agree
NASCAR is the only sport where they make it up as they go.If he wouldn’t of turned into Hamlin, Hamlin would have slid up and taken him out, just like he did Larson. Boring race got exciting! Warning, take the points, NASCAR should just pick who they want. Stupid playoff system to begin with
Actually it’s direct by product of desperation brought on by the win your in, hail Mary situations of the convoluted and downright SPED playoffs
NASCAR has ended many races not under caution and no one decided to intentionally wreck two competitors. This is Austin Dillions fault and his fault alone. He’s responsible for how he acts
The only reason they went this far was the spotter yelling wreck him wreck him wreck him, without that it would have just been a fine and wink and a nod. IMO.
Funny how a driver recently suspended, originally for life for “liking” perhaps an insensitive post. And this jerk spotter calls Dillon to wreck another driver and is only suspended for three races. Crappy lack of proper NASCAR justice!
Best Call made by NASCAR , no matter how long it took them to come to be right and far !!!
What you have lost in all of this is the fact that Austin Dillon was this race before any of this controversy ever happened. Ricky 100% wrecked preece in order to alter the race ending. Nascars overtime time policy cost Austin the win. If you want to penalize Austin for what was rightly his, get rid of all of all it. No overtime’s, no racing to the checkered, and throw the book the first he real problem stenhouse. I’m at a point where I’m not sure if I can even get into this sport anymore
If this mayhem and infighting unsportsman like driving continues, I too will start to “miss” more NASCAR races. I mean how many more Thanksgiving family dinners would you continue to attend, if during each, the family was arguing, fighting and making what should be something enjoyable….ugly and full of unnecessary drama?
So it was ok for no talent idiot to take out 2 drivers in 1 corner?
@@YaM0MsAh03 indeed if you lose a restart……it’s not “rightfully yours:
Take care
It was his spotters stupidity on the radio, Richard’s stupid comments about the radio, and Austin’s “it is what it is” type attitude that got him this huge penalty. A wise man once said “a fish is always caught by his mouth”
Yup, the spotter clearly said “wreck him”, Childress lied about it, then when confronted with proof, he makes it worse by saying it was a good thing to do because they won. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. The spotter cost them the playoffs.
I don’t think that anything Richard or Austin said had any influence on the penalty. The spotter obviously didn’t help things, which is why they suspended him, but even without him saying to wreck him, I still think Dillon would have been penalized.
