Corey LaJoie's car FLIPS OVER 😲😳
NASCAR on FOX

So glad for all of the safety that is built into the cars.
Yes, there is work to be done. Even just 10 years ago this wreck would have been much worse.
Nah
Thanks for removing the Grass on the back stretch or this would have been really Bad.
@@jamesakers1175it seems like the grass actually helped both flppers land right side up.
@@j.r.chance739 while that is true, if the entire area had been grass (as it used to be), the entire “flip” would have likely resulted in a multiple barrel roll, instead of a long slide on the roof.
Hope all is safe people.
Thats what you get when you enclose the whole bottom side of the car. There’s nowhere for the air to go against a flat surface. NASCAR has made a giant size matchbox car.
I thought the same thing… about looking like the Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars I had back in the ’60s-’70s.
This car flipped almost instantly. For whatever reason, the roof flaps did absolutely nothing.
Flat bottoms like paper
Seems like the flaps only help when the car is backwards. No effect when the car is sideways.
Also how outrageous is it that an official channel is glorify a catastrophic design failure.
@@darkknightx0992 If you go look at the highlights, with 2 to go, the #1 (Chastain) had a huge slide, but the flaps came up and the car stayed on the ground. All the cars are the same underneath, so I don’t get it.
@@rodentcafeteria Chastin was behind multiple cars blocking the air flow.
That looked like a toy car!!!
If I had a nickel for every race this year that Tyler Reddick won and Corey Lajoie flipped over, I would have two nickels which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that It’s happened twice.
Solid flat bottoms on these cars are causing this. I get there was a strong headwind down the backstretch, but these cars are going slower than they are at the Superspeedways…. they shouldn’t be lifting off that easily.
Looks to me like that flat bottom plate needs holes in it for the air to pass through. But with the speed these cars are running don’t take much for a lift.
Two flips at one weekend is just crazy
POV :she says “Just a touch “
The result:
This looks like all the millions spent on engineering the NextGen car that it failed the not getting in the air test….a flat bottom is the culprit where air has no where to escape
It’s called making a wing sealing all the holes and making sure it’s aerodynamic
Open it up under the car the air helps keep it down
And we will have another this weekend.
Air in rear right side wheel well
Cars not even bent up maybe Earnhardt senior would have got back in and drove it to back into the pits and go racing again
It’s when the back of the car comes into the forward motion that it lifts off the ground.
This is probably the fastest track for Nascar since it didn’t have reduced horsepower like Daytona and talladega. Problebly why we seen this happen there.
IDC what anyone says.. besides the main cage around the driver being stronger this new car was not just a step backwards in safety it was a big step backwards.
Flat bottom and not enough downforce
