Denny has cut 6 seconds on the 5.Lets see how long that speed advantage holds up. Just trying to see how long before it equalizes.

Larson racing and getting passed by lappers with fresher tires. Blaney eating into the lead because of it.

Lol Rick, stop talking about lead change #'s today. The only reason we have lead changes is because of this late pitting in the field. 5 has lead most the race.

Green flag stops mean lead changes. Don't read to much into it, Gerbs.

Amigo getting a little wild there

 

[Spotter22]

I don't think Larson gives a crap about pitbull. Just a guess

 

[Spotter22]

5.34.8
11-34.7

 

[Spotter22]

Dont see how the 11 strategy works without a caution. Which is a good gamble

 

[Efisher131]

Blaney is coming

 

[nascarwoman]

Blaney is coming

Blaney is FAST!

 

[StandOnIt]

side by side

 

[jaqua19]

Larson has been getting passed by and racing against lappers with fresher tires this entire run lol

I think Hamlin was 9th before he pitted? He's 4th.

 

[Spotter22]

He must have corded one

 

[TexasRaceLady]

I don't think Larson was surprised by Blaney. His car went away, plus he's already in the final 4.

Larson looked super tight.

 

[Mispeedway15]

Larson looked a bit free there towards the end. Toyota has completely botched the first few stages, interested to see how Stage 3 goes. Love this track, extremely racy

Its gonna be interesting how they run the final stage

 

[Spotter22]

Its hard to tell, but man he had his hands full

 

[StandOnIt]

Logano +5 to 6th

 

[Efisher131]

Why did Harrison Burton come down pit road 2nd? Did he intentionally take a penalty to help Blaney?

 

[Spotter22]

wow,True with a terrible stop

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Its gonna be interesting how they run the final stage

At 95 laps or so, only one stop for fuel is needed.

 

[jaqua19]

Horrible stop for the 5.

That run was just disasterous. Spent the last 50 laps of stage 2 getting passed/raced by lappers with fresher tires who were between him and the 12/6, and then has a bad pit stop to start stage 3.

Probably won't have a shot unless he gets a few spots on the restart.

Blaney will be a threat at Phoenix if he punches his ticket

Yeah the only time that's allowed is a quickie yellow. Not sure what's up there

Might be fun to see Hamlin, Truex, and Bell at M'ville decide who doesn't advance.

Waiting on Hamlin to bite the wall myself lol.

Nah, he won't screw it up on track. He has a pit stop left for his weekly speeding penalty, though. Nothing in the playoff era goes together like Denny and speeding. Not Jimmy and Chad, not RW(sb)R cautions, not Ricky wrecking the field at a plate race. Nothing.

 

[Greg]

Blaney has long run speed and might just disappear.

 

[jaqua19]

Ugh.Denny

Larson with a Ham sandwich for lunch.

*BURP*

 

[StandOnIt]

Hamlin gave Larson the wall. Dumb ass

 

[AdoubleU24]

Uhhh how many times has he proven that he can't do it all day without a mistake? Lol. Good grief

 

[antman12]

Truex seems like such a douche

 

[Greg]

Blaney has the long run speed and Larson needs to make the pass and establish track position quickly if possibile.
