Good job by NASCAR not throwing the yellow there

All of a sudden Bell is faster than the 19 and 11?

No.

Chase just ate a Hamlinburger for lunch.

And going to the Bell for dessert.

Monster in the dirt

Pretty easy when your car is a second faster than the field. Idk Alan does to that thing.

And Brad around for the 30th time.

Cody Ware tried bump drafting there, wrong part of the track

 

[BobbyFord]

Kurt punts Brad. Good times.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Brad was already having a worse day than Kurt. Insult to injury.

 

[jws926]

lol Kurt's driving angry

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Going to be a long year for Brad if this first two weeks are any indication

 

[DewChaser988]

Gee I totally didn't expect the driver with a 8.9 career average finish on Road Courses to be a threat to win on a road course (Chase Elliott).. /s

 

[JGR_20]

So we know how clint feels about Bell.

basically said bell sucks when not in a good car

hmmm... wonder if anything like that ever applied to Clints career?

i guess Clint was that one driver in NASCAR that could pilot anyones trash into the winners circle

 

[ToyYoda]

Kurt literally giving Brad the old 1, 2.

 

[DaBiff1618]

Chase Elliott must have the same setup the Mercedes do in F1 lmao

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Idk Alan does to that thing.

Puts Chase in the seat.

It's always a combination of car and driver. I think it's more driver in this situation. When you have the best driver, you can do things with setup that others can't. Chase is so smooth and all of the other top drivers have to overdrive to keep up with him.

Suarez staying out

It’s worked out fairly well for Suarez

Enough with the comic book art already.

 

[StandOnIt]

Surprised dirt tracker C.Bell is doing that well

 

[BobbyFord]

Kyle Busch; driver.

I think we're going to see that the skills to be good at one isn't that far off the skills to be good at the other with experience.

This Daytona Road Course needs to be a permanent venue for Cup.

That is ok but this will be the last RC race I stay home to watch. This race is like watching paint dry even though HMS is looking pretty good.. But I can't say I didn't give it an honest try but it is time for me to face the fact that RC racing just isn't my cup of tea but I'm sticking this one out to the end since I already committed my day to NASCAR racing. A lot of people love liver also...but I don't. I think it is time for an IN&Out double double so I don't feel that I wasted my whole day.

I didn't like it at first but it's growing on me.

Doesn’t have any finishes to show... but he did drive that 95 up into the top 5 a couple times at RCs last year. Just can’t prove it like I say, cause he didn’t get the finish

You must have it on the wrong channel. Best race at Daytona for a long damn time.

 

[donthaveanickname]

KDB is running extremely well considering there isn't much left of his splitter.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Chase isn't even going 100% right now

 

[Old Kid]

Chase isn't even going 100% right now

No reason to, save it.

I also don't think this race is that great. I wouldn't say it's boring but I've seen much better ones.
I prefer classical road courses over rovals.

 

[Kiante]

Bell is looking good.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Bell is closing in.

 

[HoneyBadger]

This is a long race.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Assuredly, but this beats another oval race, esp. another pack race on the Daytona oval.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

This is a long race.

Barely been two hours.

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

The "Ones to Watch" segment feels so fake. I get the impression announcers are told which drivers to pick.

 

[JGR_20]

LETS GO BELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ChexOrWrex]

There is more going on in this race than the cameras can show.

I’ll take this race every week of the year over anything at Michigan, Charlotte or Pocono.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Pretty impressed with Larson today
