Although I respect his accomplishments, I am not a huge Jimmy Johnson fan. I don't mind if he wins, don't mind if he doesn't, maybe I like Junior a little better - but it steams me when anyone gets a "phantom" penalty. Correct me if I'm wrong but the way I heard it from the announcers, the drive-through infraction Jimmy received around mid-race was because someone was over the wall before Jimmy got within the one pit-stall distance requirement. To make matters worse, the officials couldn't tell his crew chief why they had been penalized. Then, to make matters worse yet (for me anyway), why couldn't one of their multitude of "reporters" follow up on the mistake/confusion so the announcers could keep us informed (isn't that their job?).
After commercial interruption, the network even put up this graphic (without my comments) to assist their "rules expert", everyone has to have one now, I guess because the announcers can't be counted upon to know anything... But I digress. As the expert was talking I was saying to myself, "Who is over the wall? I don't see anyone!" Why couldn't the announcers see (and question) that assertion?
You make the call, where was the infraction?
