Cup RACE thread --- Homestead

[34R7H130UND]

I was so excited for these playoffs being a 9 fan. But man its draggingggggg. Can't even stop from hemorrhaging stage points. It's pathetic. His teammate can run 9 seconds ahead of the rest of the entire field and the 9 Can't even hold on to 6th lol. Man I cant wait till next year already.

Larson before coming to pits: "NASCAR, look how far ahead they're pulling, bull****"

Not sure what that's about.

CBS has said they have no interest and the ESPN talk has died down ever since they renewed with F1.

Probably gonna have Apple or Amazon in there somewhere.

Really doubt NASCAR will do an Apple / Amazon deal. The ESPN on F1 stuff doesn’t matter that much given the time slots.

I mean they're not green flag stops so who cares? I wonder what's going on

Chase lost 2 spots that last lap.

Damn.

The 24 and 19 shouldn't have pulled up far coming to pit road with lap cars between 5 and P2.

Apparently there was a whole discussion during driver's meeting about it.

Cliff: "10-4. We're going to let it go for now"

Especially since we already have a viewership problem. Limiting that even more is not the best idea

 

[StandOnIt]

Earnhardt and Burton are just exhausting.

MRN off the Nascar site is heaven. The B.S. meter reads zero lol.

I guess the 24 and 19 went by the lap cars and shouldn't have been on the 5's bumper coming in to pit.

Larson was aggravated because it was apparently discussed by NASCAR in the driver's meeting.

I don’t know why everyone thinks NASCAR WON’T go this road when literally every other sport in the world has.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Chase almost got walled trying to squeeze by Blaney for 8th.

Chase was defending, Blaney sent it and lost it

 

[Spotter22]

Nice Crowd today

NHL, NBA, MLB generally only do that for local streaming, what local streaming is gonna work for NASCAR?

Sure, maybe Amazon Prime is an option, but even then local TV is required to show a teams game on Amazon Prime.

Too much money on tv. People already complain about TNF being on Amazon prime, and nascar is dumb. They really should just you know throw it on a streaming service and call it a day.

 

[34R7H130UND]

I live for the 11 v 1 feud. So fun to watch

 

[racingfan7]

I personally would prefer Thursday Night Football on ESPN or ABC or NBC. Not a fan of Amazon Prime so far.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

I really want to see Ross make the finale. That would be steel cage / ladder match, all the folding chairs you can bring.

 

[34R7H130UND]

Chase last of all playoff drivers in points earned. Wow. Imagine if they were worth a s$*%

 

[Charlie Spencer]

If it gave NASCAR more control over starting times, and fewer commercials, I'd pay if they moved everything to a stream.

 

[Mispeedway15]

Huh?

Last year’s championship race was BORING. Most of the Phoenix races on this confirmation have been boring.

We’re clinging to a couple good overtime finishes.

Boring? That was exhilarating last year lol Larson made a bold late race pass to get past Truex for the win

 

[Efisher131]

Noah conquered Homestead yesterday after dominating years in a row. Is this the weekend Larson does too?

 

[34R7H130UND]

I'd pay what I pay for cable for a nascar streaming service. I have a small cable package, but still. People pay for game pass, red zone, etc. Why not nascar. Trucks, xfinity, cup, arcade, k&n, pintys, the series in Mexico (if thats still a thing), on demand races, practice qualifying, they can make their own racing content, I really wish they would switch

I'd be ok with that

 

[donthaveanickname]

Nice to see Truex have a good run. I didn't really notice him at all during this season.

 

[Efisher131]

Boring? That was exhilarating last year lol Larson made a bold late race pass to get past Truex for the win

In the pits and then clean aired his way to the title with the 3rd best car

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

This a nap inducing race. Snoozer

I thought most of the action happened on pit road in that race.

 

[jaqua19]

Chase is lucky that none of the other active playoff drivers are even running top 10, minus Byron and Ross.

100%. That's all it's been this playoffs. Leaning on the points cushion, and luck

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Tyler needs to get that thing worked on ASAP

 

[TexasRaceLady]

That was almost a disaster.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Wow, 25 seconds worth.

EDIT overshot the box

 

[34R7H130UND]

Did hamlin not drive through too many stalls?

"Some of us earn our calluses."

Hey, Northern Tool, what do the rest of us do? Inherit them from Mom? Find them on the street? Buy them at the mall? Maybe they come with a Happy Meal.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Larson is doing a good Noah impression.

 

[Brentford]

A rather lackluster race so far, being shown by only 2 pages worth of comments. Doesn't seem anyone has anything for Larson, but I'm quite happy to see Byron gaining some stage points.

 

[34R7H130UND]

Alot of options Jr? Seems to me, there aren't many options to pass

Everybody is waiting on Larson to scrape the wall...or not

The B.S. runs deep with that gerbil lol

Not great, no
