JR was on the pole


Everything was going ok until a caution came out right when everyone hit pit road and now they all including JR have been sent to the end of the longest line

Idk what else NASCAR can do but that's a really shitty penalty to get, nothing the drivers could've done about it

Yeah at some point common sense has to come into play. That McMurray crash was brutal.

Well they pretty much have to close out road at a caution otherwise everyone will dive down there when a caution occurs to try to get an advantage which would not only be unfair but also potentially dangerous

That said they might could incorporate some level of judgement in the penalty for a situation like that where obviously all those guys were pitting anyways and it had nothing to do with the caution occurring

They all were like 30’ from pit road and had already committed to pitting before the wreck even happened

Have these guys completely forgotten to wave before coming to pit road?

I understand but the rule is black and white

That's why I'm saying the rule needs to be adjusted

I'm a little behind on DVR, no idea why Ives didn't have JR pit before pit road closed

Finished watching the Saints. Looks like I didn’t miss much so far in the race.

This is probably Danica’s last shot at a Cup win. Calling it now: Stenhouse pushes her to the win. Junior fans tear down the grandstands.

Crowd should thin after all the Joey Gase fans leave. Their man is done.

I was about to post then weren’t done wrecking yet, and ... wreck.

Danica May win by attrition.
