2022 Daytona 500 pre-race thread

[AndyMarquisLive]

Once it switched from FS1 to Fox it became the clown show

Driver intros … fox decides to air a lame taped segment instead.
They never learn and never change.
****** terrible.

Tom Rinaldi > the rest of this.

If I'm reading that correctly, 8 commercial breaks before stage 2?!?!

 

[Kiante]

MTJ's and Sherry's portion...

Man, that took a lot for me not to cry either. Much love to those two.

You're doing better than I am. I don't know what I'm looking at.

I see I tuned in too early again. Who wrote the crapola this guy is reciting for driver lineup?

Green flag at 3:06 PM.

21 commercial breaks in a 200 lap race. That's 9 laps of racing per break and that is assuming none of those shown will be under caution. We might see 80 green flag laps today...

The same people at Fox who approve the 28 new series every year that get canceled before season 1 fully airs

 

[Charlie Spencer]

I quit counting warblers for this??

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

If money were no object…give me a pre race Daytona 500 concert of George Strait, Chris Stapleton and a hologram of the original Lynyrd Skynyrd

 

[StandOnIt]

Pretty typical, they can't seat sniff about the lack of attendance or deathbed so what else is there? Oh, lets troll the broadcast.

 

[Blaze]

I’m picking Kaz Grala to pull off the upset

I'll take your word. I don't look at Fox outside NASCAR.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Hey it’s Jeff Gordon on Pre Race! He’s looking very owner like these days

 

[racingfan7]

I’m sorry but I don’t understand why Fox has 4 drivers, 0 crew chiefs, 0 spotters, 0 professional broadcasters

I’ve enjoyed what I’ve watched so far, the former driver interaction on the pre race has been pretty cool. I’ve enjoyed Tony Stewart’s contribution, he’s a natural at this

 

[Kiante]

No, I thought you meant you tuned in too early to the broadcast in a literal sense.

I was just giving you the green flag time just in case you wanted to avoid all of the pre-race stuff.

Nothing nasty or anything, Charlie.

Looks like all 150 thousand are having a hell of a time to me.

I'm sorry, I didn't make myself clear again.

By 'this', I meant the pre-race show. The schedule shows the pre-race ending at 2:30. I assumed a green of 2:40 or :45. My mistake.

Feeeellllll the Powa!!!

Are they always publishing that?

I think I’d be having a good time if I was there. Not gonna lie I’m having a good time watching this, FOX is doing a good job showing us the energy and excitement at the track from the fans lucky enough to be there to us viewers at home

 

[kkfan91]

...Mikey just called Chase Briscoe Ryan multiple times

 

[Charlie Spencer]

seems he never does

It wasn't from a lack of trying. I'd have gone back out but the terrier is on my lap.

 

[racingfan7]

Instead of cutting the race, let’s cut the 20-30 minute prerace show. Geez.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Chase’s mom is…Mrs Stiffler-like

 

[jws926]

Good question, someone on Reddit posted it, saying NASCAR is the one that shared it, it would be nice if they did.

 

[kkfan91]

Very nice professional anthem from Trace

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

That place is absolutely PACKED.

 

[StandOnIt]

Well that was pure bad ass

Good pace, no 'artistic interpretation'. I don't know the guy and was prepared to not like it. Pleasant surprise.

It's a little surprising given some of his country songs over the last decade...like Honky Tonk Badonkadonk

An Exhibition Race on the Beach! Who's with me? Talk about throwback and certainly an event that would get eyes on a sport that could use more.

I no longer follow this sport but I do hear others taking about it because of things like the recent event in LA.
