Chase gaining, things might get interesting

Chase aint catching him. Its champions choking weekend

 

[10-4]

No way Elliot catches Reddick. This race is over.

 

[jaqua19]

Reddick was a bit better towards the end of the run the last two runs, so I wonder if he will stretch it back out.

I just don't think he can hold him off.

I would say it's not so much about not having faith in Reddick as much as it is remembering just how good Elliott is at these places.

The fat lady has sat back down.

 

[jaqua19]

You guys are underselling the raw pace of the 9, and Reddick's ability to choke.

I called this race over in favor of the 9 laps ago, and I'm not wavering. Time just hasn't caught up yet.

You can't help yourself lol

Reddick has a history of not being quite good enough. He's going to feel the pressures imo.

Less than a second back with 40 miles to go, WTF?

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Screw the haters, this is amazing racing

 

[10-4]

Looks like Reddick is winning the long run.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

IF Chase could get to the bumper, Reddick will get lemon booty. But I think Reddick is safe. Mad respect to him

 

[Brentford]

5th place sounds good until you realize he is 21 seconds back from the lead. Better than being 20th and 45 seconds back though.

Random question - are they required to have the windshield wiper on the car even when there's no threat of rain?

To me it's pretty clear who has the better car.

 

[aunty dive]

Long ways to go. 35 miles.

They’re only a little over halfway through the run.

 

[jaqua19]

Reddick was better after 13 laps the last two runs.

I just don't trust him. Idunno what it is. That Bristol race just really lowered my expectations of him in late race situations.

Yeah, as of this weekend they’re required to run it. But I think teams were already doing it anyways for aero purposes.

Yes.

 

[Efisher131]

This could end up being a fantastic finish

It's pretty bold to say there's no way Chase wins imo

It's funny how Reddick's just driving away. All over that 9 bumper after the pit. I mean I think he has a better car than the 9 but everybody else seems to think otherwise. The race is over.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Chase is basically there

 

[HoneyBadger]

Kevin Harvick gonna miss the playoffs.

Is Chase Elliott still a child?

 

[carolinabuff]

Chase is basically there

Huh? He's running about a second back give or take

 

[AdoubleU24]

It's pretty insane how much faster than the field they are

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Okay, she's back up, putting on her horned helmet, and doing some sound checks.

Honestly it's time Reddick wins one of these

Very F1 esque

 

[Speedbowl14]

That battle for 13th looked nice....

 

[FLRacingFan]

They’re beating the **** out of each other back there. Should use some more PiP.

 

[JBone88]

5 laps is a long time here. But long overdue for Tyler Reddick to win a Cup race.

 

[jaqua19]

Has Allen adjusted the 9 at all today?

12th on back? Yeah, show that.

 

[HoneyBadger]

How does this one slip away from Reddick?

 

[StandOnIt]

Why would Chase want to bust his ass with that much time left?

 

[AdoubleU24]

A lot of people should be thankful for Reddick today lol. Look at the gap to 3rd
