How can you say flat ending when there was a hard fought pass for the lead scant laps from the finish?7. Too many cautions, flat ending. Good racing when the green was out.
A Gordon vs Johnson or Truex vs Logano type finish is a non flat ending. Truex won by over 2 seconds.How can you say flat ending when there was a hard fought pass for the lead scant laps from the finish?
MTJ made the pass for the lead with basically 4 to go. Plus, they raced side by side while weaving through lapped traffic for like 3 or 4 laps. That’s a nail biter in my book. Not every race can end with a drag race to the finish line.A Gordon vs Johnson or Truex vs Logano type finish is a non flat ending. Truex won by over 2 seconds.
Truex led the final 16 laps according to racing reference. And yes, not every race can end like that. The fact that this one didn't have a classic finish, combined with the fact that it ran over 4 hours due to the caution after caution in stage 3, is why this is a 7 to me and not a 9 or 10. It was a pretty good race, but had lots of room to improve.MTJ made the pass for the lead with basically 4 to go.

Error in my post, supposed to say 14 to go. Still, my sentiment remains the same.Truex led the final 16 laps according to racing reference. And yes, not every race can end like that.

To each their own. Glad you enjoyed the race. Hope this weekend is as good or better.Error in my post, supposed to say 14 to go. Still, my sentiment remains the same.
