Wow im first viewer…never had that happen….i was pissed nascar didnt call the caution right away. Should have been green checker flag
Just the worst cop out answer I’ve ever heard..he can’t say that when they’ve also thrown out the caution immediately without a car even wrecking..
Like hemric lightly tapping the wall a couple weeks ago
Exactly
Yep, pretty much expected NASCAR to trot good ol’ Elton Sawyer out to try to explain all the bullshit that took place during this race.
Makes it pretty hard to take this company seriously.
It’s a case by case basis. In this case we waited so larson could be the winner.
The Hendrick check is in the mail.
Thinking the same thing
You people complaining on here would complain no matter what Nascar did. Damned if the do Damned if they don’t.
If you were a true Nascar fan you would know that this exact scenario has come up more than once in the last two to three seasons and every other race they have thrown the caution as soon as a driver hit the wall or they stopped moving
JUST SHUT THE HECK UP AND EXCEPT IT, Or don’t watch Nascar. We won’t have Nascar for 3 weeks so just let it be for God sakes. You Nascar fans live to complain wtf.@@FORESTGUMP86
Im a fan of larson i would have been happy to see him win, but it would have bern exciting to see if reddick coukd have run him down
Everybody keep crying. No Toyota or Ford was taking that away from Larson. HE BEAT YOUR FAVORITE DRIVER
And beat my interest in this season. To the ground. Bye
You don’t ask him about the idiotic blend line BS?
It bs ok
Like ghost rain in Daytona
That was some BS even the announcers was stating that the 41 wasn’t moving and had a flat tire before they even entered turn 4
if it was 10 laps earlier, they would have thrown the caution before he hit the wall
So even he said the 12 was the control vehicle… so larson still shouldve been called for jumping restart…?
Yes 100%
If you don’t want to rechoose lock the field and don’t let the inside line move up. Larson basically went from third to first. But he is the golden boy.
@@careyloggins7752 they could’ve easily had them re choose. They have called back restarts before. Idt they had enough time to radio in before the restart but they shouldve been ready, all we kept hearing was brad isnt going to make it. Throw a caution into turn 1 and say it was to correct restart order. To have larson jump that restart gave him the race, it was hard to pass. Plus many people ran out of fuel behind them. Who knows what wouldve shaken up.
He says it like they didn’t see he wasn’t gonna move BEFORE they took the white. Like dog, all of us could see he wasn’t gonna move before Larson got it off Turn 4. Yall had plenty of time to throw a caution. Just awful.
we just want consistency
How many cameras do you need to see what’s going on??!!Quit the LIES.
