ok lets deal with the first matter. Bowyer spun out on purpose and he isn't even very good at lieing about it. just watch the interview with clint after the race. To me his first few words and expressions betray what really happened. seriously "39 is going to win the race"................................."is your hand hurting"..........."it must be hot in there" dale jr saw clint driving erratically. The in car camera flickers out at the worst possible moment. however clint slows in the corner to less than the speed of a lap car and spins out on the bottom, blipping the throttle like drivers normally do to stay off the wall at a big track, not a short track and not when the car is so far from the wall, its lock it down time there.
second matter was the restart, hello was paul menard the leader or not?!?!?! you gotta be kidding me carl took off like he was the leader. I kept thinking any minute black flag, wonder if a certain black car in second could have had anything to do with the non call. the only thing I can think of is nascar didn't have time to react to a penalty with so few laps and time left. clearly menard wasn't having trouble because his car wasn't stacking the field up.
if you couple both issues nascar has egg on its face. I think it hurts the credibility of the sport when either of these things happen. The outcome of the race winner was incorrect and it caused 2 guys to make the chase who wouldn't have and 2 guys who should have to not. I don't know what they do about someone forcing a caution, I have seen other drivers do it on purpose, but nothing like this. I have to ask what if a situation like this effects the outcome of who is the champion??
