A short track somewhere
I think we can go ahead and open nominations up early.

1.) Austin Hill for hooking Aric Almorola.
2.) Austin Hill for doing a John Force on pit road.
3.) Austin Hill for saying “**** NASCAR” after wrecking someone on purpose.
4.) Austin Hill for wearing white gloves. (When will these guys learn cameras can zoom in?)
 
I'll nominate Larson for being Larson for the thousandth time. Just because he's on "my" team doesn't mean I wouldn't love to choke the crap out of him half the time. Justin is a FAR classier guy than I would be.

Larson got loose. Hill's move was intentional.

Larson is the "greatest driver in the world", but somehow he's always out of control and getting himself or somebody else in trouble driving over his damn head. For somebody so great, he sure seems to have trouble finding the limit of his car without creating a mess.

A bit over exaggerated as usual. Allgaier pinched Larson down, that is what good drivers do to make it hard to pass. Allgaier took out both of them. Good hard racing. Larson finished 4th.

Larson says.
Larson also expressed his feelings on the incident and whether he felt that he could have done anything differently while racing Allgaier.

“He was able to get to my right rear and pull me back, and he drove by me pretty quick, where he just took enough air off my right side where I was just along for the ride there. I was trying to miss him, but I unfortunately got into him.”

“Honestly, I don’t really know what I could have done differently yet. I’m sure once I look at the repla,y I’ll see some things. He was just there on my door, but I’m the one in control of my car.”
 
Austin Hill 100% but kyle Larson gets an honorable mention for crashing allgaier for the lead after his “I only race xfinity to embarrass the series regulars” comments

Larson finished 4th, Allgaier DNF, so there is some truth to that.
 
Did he actually say that?

Did his monitor have the day off?
 
Austin Hill. Need I say more.

Honorable mention to Christopher Bell for running over the 38 car. Dude needs to get his head on straight.
 
Indianapolis raceway for not having soft walls around the whole track. Almirola said it was his hardest hit since he broke his back.

The last sentence says it all. Allgaier and Larson may not be "official" teammates, but make no mistake, they ARE, and Larson needs to try a little harder to
Protect his teammates. Of course we all know how he has treated Elliott in the past, so I guess we shouldn't be surprised.

Larson finished 1st last year and 2nd this year at Indy. Probably would have finished first in the Xfinity race if it hadn't been for Allgaier pinching him down when Larson was going for the lead. Oh, well 4th wasn't that bad.
 
Well in Hill's defense Almirola was driving like a jack wagon most of the race. I mean he ran the #7 into the inside wall at the start of the race too

Well, Mark Martin agreed with me, so I'm fine with my take. That's as much validation as I'll ever need.

No points taken away and no money fine. You guys think Hill has learned his lesson?

> Under a rule established before the 2025 season, he will forfeit his total of 21 playoff points and be ineligible to collect more before the postseason begins.

Straight from NASCAR.com. He’ll get a waiver to make the playoffs, but he’s cooked beyond that.
 
In the world of the 4 car jackpot for the title, he will probably get more air time than anybody.
