Re: Chase Race 9 - Pheonix
First, congrats to RCR. What a long drought.
Yeah, Boyer "barely" got into Gordon, Gordon was still fine at this point. Then Boyer dropped down below the line in the dog leg, came back up the track and Gordon put the left bumper into Boyer to retaliate. By doing so, Gordon's tire was cut and into the wall he went. Instead of NASCAR throwing a caution like they do most anytime someone hits the wall, the race continued and you could see small parts flying off Gordon's car. Instead of heading to pit lane, Gordon continued on waiting for Boyer to come back around. NASCAR even black flagged Gordon. Shortly after, Gordon took out Boyer and a few other cars.
Up to that point, Boyer still had a legit(not great) shot at the championship. IMO, Gordon lacked any class whatsoever. And I don't have any dog in the fight with either driver.
When they showed a live shot of Gordon out of his car fluffin' his hair, he all of a sudden disappeared. Guarantee someone initially got a good shot at him. Interesting how the cops were waiting outside NASCAR's hauler to escort Gordon and members of his team out of there.
Danica's deal. Not sure what Burton(he's my dog) was thinking in the first place. Burton dumps Danica, slams in the wall and dumps a bunch of oil(flagman had to see it even tho NASCAR claims otherwise) on the track, they don't throw a caution and a bunch of cars wreck at the finish. Bet the owners of those cars will have a talk with NASCAR.
Sure it made for an exciting ending. Still, cooler heads from NASCAR should of prevailed.
If I were Brad and see Gordon and Boyer by each other at Homestead, he better get around them, or, give them lots of room.
I'm done........
