Here's my issue, Harvick had no business out there, his car was toast and he was riding the wave of cautions to salvage what was lost. He lost, his car was done too bad so freakin sad. Now instead of just dealing with that, he costs others and could have really got someone hurt, and I figured he'd be the reason with the way his car was dying.

I hope mutiny going to happen in the Sprint Cup garages after this, Harvick had no reason of being up there with a failing engine and causing a wreck.

If Logano wasn't being cute during that first restart. Oh well, pretty sure Kenseth will guarantee he doesn't advance.

Only drivers known to advance right now: 22, 2, 24, 19.
Only drivers known as eliminated: 20, 88.

Its Vanilla
Logano with a nice gesture for the fans.

Can you blame them? Logano screwed up the first restart by being cute. It doesn't take much though to rile them up as they toss bottles at him.
 
Logano is looking to do the impossible and become even more hated than his teammate BK. He's starting off nicely by doing that.

Well he got Kenseth riled up. Gordon is unhappy. Why not let Edwards, Earnhardt Jr. and Harvick go after him?
 
here's the finish... don't click unless you watched the whole damn thing.

 
Ok Kevin... that actually naughty.
 


Above; my thoughts on the end of this.

Imagine if all these guys still had a chance at the title at Homestead. That would probably be a pretty intense race. But no, we get manufactured drama.
 
Yeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhh... that's a bit shady...
 
If NASCAR lets that go without any repercussions, it's total bull...

MWR intentionally throws the race at Richmond in 2013 to help their team make the chase. Harvick does a similar thing today. There's no way that should be allowed to go on without anything being done about it.

Harvick didn't intentionally throw that race. Granted, the second restart should not have happened.

I'm saying he did...

For him, in that situation, it was either let the field go by and Jr most likely wins and eliminates Harvick, or Harvick causes a wreck, prevents Jr from winning and keeps himself in the chase...

He turned into the 6... there's no legitimate reason for him to have done so.

There's no proof that says he did it on purpose.
 
GTPorsche
So, on a portion of the track where it's going straight, and he has a car to his outside, he turns to the right just enough to hit the 6...

....and you don't think it's intentional?

ok.... ok....

I'm starting to think that you have a point...
 
I do have a point. Harvick just jukes his car into the 6 and it sets off a wreck. Timing is perfect because any later and Jr would have had the lead. It's clearly visible from every single angle they show on replay.
 
:lol: Ok then.
 
It really is impressive that NBC found enough talking heads to go on TV and try and sell this BS as a legitimate race.

This isn't when the caution was called! This is the Restart Zone!
 
Aborted restart attempt, Harvick moves out of the way completely. Second attempt that shouldn't happen, he doesn't move out of the way and makes no attempt to move anywhere until Bayne makes a pass on the outside and all of a sudden Harvick is turning into him.

It's complete bull...

If anything, he turned right go get onto the outside and get out of the way of everyone.


I'm generally sick of people wanting to blame things that don't go their way on someone. Who the hell cares! It's a race, and it's over. What's been done is done. Move on to next week!.
 
Just watch the replay yourselves again and take a good look on a camera angle from behind where you can see the #6 side by side with the #4. From that anyone can judge if it was intentional or no.

My call is that it was intentional.
