…and probably even more to come after this one.

 

[Blaze]

Denny is good on shorter runs it seems, but longer it goes he seems to get slower.

 

[StandOnIt]

All that does is help short run Hamlin.

 

[HoneyBadger]

NASCAR REEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALY does not want James Dennis to win this.

 

[JBone88]

In all seriousness, Byron is THE most underrated driver in NASCAR this century. He's so good and consistent.

Reminds me of Matt Kenseth.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Didn't even touch the wall.

 

[SeventyGTX]

35 to go and I realize I don't care who becomes champion.

Same here mainly because of the ridiculous format

 

[HoneyBadger]

This is the 2008 Brickyard 400 of Championship Races.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Same here mainly because of the ridiculous format

Combined with the Gerbils flogging it.

 

[nickp]

this is going to be huge

 

[LukeWatts05]

this is gonna get wild guys

 

[Brentford]

And here we go! Surely one of them will be taken out on this restart.

 

[StandOnIt]

Briscoe got 2 and they are scuffs.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Ooof two tires only!

 

[RaceCritter]

Brisco only takes two tires? Is that all he had left?

 

[donthaveanickname]

This is the 2008 Brickyard 400 of Championship Races.

There's no way this isn't the last ever championship race, right? Right?

 

[StandOnIt]

IDK what Larson did but he is 2nd.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Only choice the 5 and 19 had left was a Hail Mary. They weren’t going to win straight up. At least now you if you go down, you go down swinging.

 

[SeventyGTX]

Briscoe got 2 and they are scuffs.

Larson also, but I don't know if they are scuffs with the mute button activated

 

[StandOnIt]

Brisco only takes two tires? Is that all he had left?

Scuffs at that.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Really? 280 laps and they're all up front together?

 

[DaleJrFan2003]

35 to go and I realize I don't care who becomes champion.

This is just like if the 2008 Brickyard 400 was a championship race. I’m just enjoying the embarrassing chaos.

 

[HoneyBadger]

That was insane.

 

[SeventyGTX]

Really? 280 laps and they're all up front together?

Manufactured drama!!!

 

[DaleJrFan2003]

Ngl, that was a clean move by Hamlin

 

[StandOnIt]

Hamlin on new tires is impossible to catch.

 

[DanicaFreak]

Hsmmy with a veteran move

 

[RaceCritter]

Is this when Ware hits a wall? I’m not saying just asking…

 

[Efisher131]

I freakin hate Hamlin but he deserves this thing. Pulling for him.

 

[REBS31]

Cody Ware please if you can hear me, please save us Cody Ware

 

[LukeWatts05]

Is this when Ware hits a wall? I’m not saying just asking…

cody ware caution?

 

[FLRacingFan]

Hamlin’s pulled out a hell of a gap already.

 

[HoneyBadger]

So how does Denny Hamlin lose this?

a.) Blown tire
b.) Late race caution
c.) Engine problem
d.) Other

 

[donthaveanickname]

Come on Dennis, just 15 to go!

 

[Efisher131]

So how does Denny Hamlin lose this?

a.) Blown tire
b.) Late race caution
c.) Engine problem
d.) Other

NASCAR is READY to hit that button if the wind blows wrong.

 

[Blaze]

Denny, choke like you're the Atlanta Falcons

 

[TheJester]

Hendrick just never figured it out for this specific race ever since start of gen 7. Someone always better

 

[donthaveanickname]

If it stays green the championship is his.

 

[DaleJrFan2003]

These laps are taking forever, aaah!
