Cup RACE thread --- Richmond

[Charlie Spencer]

That’s obviously the plot and talking point today: fellate JGR, facts be damned

There's another slurp.

 

[FLRacingFan]

So even when they can afford to show the entire pit stop for someone they still can’t time it? That was a perfect opportunity with Hamlin and Bell.

But they can show four useless driver cams at the same time.

Bell was in 2nd place before that strategy play, I don't understand the gamble

 

[FLRacingFan]

Lmao

 

[JGR_20]

Lmao

Kyle Busch in the 12 today

 

[JGR_20]

9 is making some time up last several laps

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Buescher in 10th. RFK runs better when they don't cheat.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Everybody hitting pit road again.

 

[JGR_20]

broadcast booth:

Jeff Burton > Chad Knaus

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Blaney ain't gonna be happy about that.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Yeah, I’m not trying to pull that stuff on Ross lol. Blaney had something coming for that for sure.

 

[AdoubleU24]

I'm fine with Chastain doing that kinda **** midrace as long as he can take it in return when the time comes

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

 

[Nitro Dude]

I was told he would win at least half the races.

But they didn't say which half.

 

[JGR_20]

Chastain was doin the same crap last year too, just no cameras really watching 27th position too often to catch it

 

[BobbyFord]

Ross will dump the 12 if Blaney gets frisky

 

[AdoubleU24]

I mean what exactly happened to Blaney, did he just get tight and push up the track? That's what it looked like

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

He’s been a bull in the china shop ass his whole career, but “hard working watermelon farmer blah blah blah”

 

[DIDIT]

Is the 2 stop strategy gonna work for Bell?

 

[BobbyFord]

Why is Chad saying, “It’s really difficult to pass here…?”
Is he watching a different race?

 

[JGR_20]

“ThAtS RoSs!!! He WoRkEd oN a FarM ONE wEek!!”

[Tim_Richmond_Fan]

Lol, 10 minutes trying to explain how an undercut works.

 

[BobbyFord]

Truex P1

 

[jaqua19]

Smart call on the 19.

Barely a top 4 car, but with Smart pit strategy, leads by 7 seconds and dominated stage 2.

Logano around the 9.

He looks really fast too.

Imagine a NASCAR race where it isn’t pack racing and there is a bit of pit strategery….

 

[jaqua19]

On the 5 radio - not sure who the heck Cliff was talking to, but someone was saying something about it being really aero heavy here.

(Thinking of the 1 & 12 having contact)

The field uses that 12 car whenever they want, I feel like

until he gets fired up a good time or two, they might keep it up. He’s a chill driver tho… but those guys are ruthless sometimes

 

[jaqua19]

Penske vs JGR.

Near equal in pace, but JGR strategizing circles around them.

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Truex wins stage two.

 

[FLRacingFan]

All things considered that worked well for Bell, surprisingly. One extra set of tires in the bank.

 

[Turtle84]

New car same ol' Truex at Richmond

 

[jaqua19]

Larson is dumbfounded. Doesn't know what to ask for, just frustrated with dirty air.

Cliff told him his pace is good, lost only 0.8 to the leader over the last 100 laps.

Larson just needs track position and was curious about the 19 and 20s pit strategy.

Blaney is pretty po'd about the 1 on his radio.

Does everyone still hate this track? I thought the racing today has been good, good crowd too
