It’s days like today that I wish Tony Stewart were still racing so I could hear him rant about Goodyear.

Sounds like it. She’s definitely struggling to talk.

Goodyear is prepping extra tires but NASCAR has to give the all clear for the teams to have an extra set.

It's time for Gustafson to hit the road.

Can't make 50 laps, at Bristol, on the tires.

What a shitshow Nascar.

*Nice crowd too. Not even half capacity.

Bubba Wallace is told by Bootie Barker that NASCAR/Goodyear doesn't have enough tires to finish the race.

Bubba: "They've got what, three and a half hours to load up a trailer and get it up here? They could just red flag it and run it tomorrow."

True, but the racing is actually good when they’re not wrecking.

NASCAR says they’ll allow each team an extra set of tires.

Not sure one extra set is enough.

This is a shitshow, but it’s an entertaining shitshow.

Gibbs is the car to beat at this point.

So, is the guy with the last set of sticker tires going to win this thing?

NASCAR is gonna stretch this caution out as long as possible.

I’m all for tire wear being a factor and the drivers having to manage the tires, but this is getting a bit ridiculous.

Twenty-lap cautions punctuated by five-lap racing segments

Gibbs’ car seems to be substantially better than any other car.

Greg Stucker of Goodyear just visited the media center and said NASCAR and drivers asked for more tire wear. They did a test here for that. However, Stucker described today as a 'tough situation' and said the wear is too drastic.
