It was in the last turn of the last lap and he was leading.. wild. Hope he’s ok. As others have said, the second impact from the other car is what has me worried. Checked a few mins ago and no update on his status yet. The longer it goes without an update the more worried I am :-/

ETA: There were like 4 wrecks/cautions in the last few laps. It was an absolute clusterfrick of a finish

There was a big pileup with 16 laps to go. Jimmie Johnson's car couldn't return to the race. At the time I thought it was a bad way for him to finish his last race.
Maybe it was actually lucky for him.

Really hope the outcome is better than it looks for Ryan Newman.

They were just racing. Newman went down for the block and they tapped. Nothing intentional. Just good hard racing from two drivers trying to win. It's what they do. It's a dangerous sport.

Nascar is the dumbest sport I’ve ever seen.

180 laps of driving in a line,

Then 20 laps of dick headed moves and wrecks.

Just save the gas and race 20 laps

They may be talented but they are just people. They want to win.

The car dragging on the pavement with the windshield gone doesn't help anything either.

It's good to know you're consistently a negative person and it's not just an occasional lapse.

There is that kind of racing.

This is different. If you don't like it don't watch it.
