Open at the green. Whenever that is. *sigh*
And from the looks of the track, it won't be any time soon.

Looks like any other plate race to me so far. Pack racing, follow the leader and go backwards if you get out of line. I feel sorry for the people who spent money and waited three hours.

There goes Bell, he just lost it.

Garrett Smithley is told: “You can’t afford to get out of line.”

Awful. Single-file all the way around because if you pull out and try to pass and no one helps, you get shuffled to the back like any other plate race. But at least they're so close together, right?

Last 10 laps, Sadler, Allgaier, Custer all lose places after getting out of line with no help trying to pass.

This is what they wanted.
Folks have been complaing for years about Michigan. Give credit to NASCAR for trying to help tracks that need a bit of a push. It just looks like its hurting more than helping.

Custer jumped out of line to try to pass and its like he hit a brick wall. Stupid.
Which “folks” have wanted plate racing at Michigan for years?

NASCAR talked about using a plate at Michigan some years ago.

Then the TV crew tries to pass it off as testing strategy for later in the race. Here's what he learned: stay in line.

Restart? Better get in that high line as fast as possible because the bottom is going nowhere.

Who is your TV provider? For a long time I thought I didn't have it with Comcast, but they discretely added it up in the 1200 channels during the past year.
Also, I believe you can stream it using Fox Sports Go if you have an active cable or satellite subscription that receives FS1.

Track seems as though it is rubbering up as we continue. That was a lot of rain earlier

1.5 laps later and they are all playing follow the leader on the high lane.
Wtf is the point of this nonsense?

Cindric is being aggressive, but it is all for not.
Good save by Sieg.

I’m interested to see if you can actually get a run and slingshot by. It’s only been 46 laps guys

Yeah, I was surprised there wasn't a competition caution. I guess the 30-lap stage was short enough to serve.

Seeing how everyone is desperate to follow each other, no.

Well if it’s not this then it’s follow the leader who has a ton of clean air. Lol that’s how it’s always been

Shrub has come close but can't maintain a run.

How is this any different than a usual race here? Big advantage to the leader except at least the draft gives you a chance where as everything is clean air typically

"Bell is up to fourth!" Until he got in the sucker hole and finished the stage ninth.

How can you not be impressed with how he is running with a brand new team? Good going by the young man.

Sadler in the interview at the end of S2: "It's just like Daytona and Talladega. You have to get the right line and the right push."

Would be more impressive if it was a legitimate race. Not this lottery ****.

He got a top 10 in the first race with Fury at Charlotte, its just not because of a lottery package. The guy has skill.
Not to mention, blessings to the owner of JGL, but he did get raw deal by JGL.

This package is meant to equalize everyone & keep them feet apart. This run is literally thanks to this package. Otherwise the doors get blown off.
