Lug nuts in slow mo 👍
Camry cutting the ribbon 👍

Two cars crashing and no good replays of that 👎

faux sports at it's worst

That got old about 7 or 8 years ago.

Tell that to the Earnhardt family, the Petty family, and countless others who have praised and advocated safety advances after a driver died.

Great thing about being at Daytona itself. No Fox coverage.

I like the smells of racing, race fuel and rubber.
Snap us a shot from your seat.

Buescher and DiBenedetto both released from the medical center.

Seeing fox go to ads every damn 10 minutes makes me want NBC to do the full season

Been wanting it since they started their coverage last year.

 

[GTPorsche]

Every 10 minutes is average for US TV.

 

[Jahgee]

Now they're all trapped in purgatory

 

[ukfan758]

Buescher and DiBenedetto both released from the medical center.

Excellent news.

Fox does this every year, every race, and for every form of motorsports that they live broadcast. You should have expected this already.

 

[ukfan758]

Every 10 minutes is average for US TV.

At least NBC does side-by-side for more than two commercial breaks.

 

[Blitz24]

I'm wondering if the costs that NASCAR is putting on FOX is requiring the more frequent commercials.

16 in wall
#3 loose

 

[Blitz24]

16 did not hit the wall.

 

[Bo]

Tyre gone on the 16. Nice job keeping it out of the wall.

 

[GTPorsche]

Those Goodyear tires are the best, right?

 

[AnthonyD1993]

Colonel Sanders on the right rear kind of looks like burnt chicken with the tire carcass debris on the quarter panel.

 

[RACECAR]

I'll probably be crucified (or assassinated) for saying this...but I never had a problem with Mcreynolds or DW. Whenever I watched a race on Fox, that was "Good Ole crew" to me. Not sure why in recent memory, people hate them so much. Is solely because they are southern?

 

[The Bman]

DW couldn't even think of a punchline for his "joke".

 

[Panoz]

Great heads-up driving from Biffle, could've been a big wreck there.

Nothing to do with it. Jarrett was from the south (Ned), and I didn't have a problem with him.

 

[GTPorsche]

It has more to do with the stupid catchphrases and sometimes poor execution of the English language.

I love them, but now it's obvious they aren't as in touch with the current cars and strategies as they were in 2001 when they were both freshly retired

 

[IforceV8]

There are several onboards and a talking head free stream on the foxsports.com go app.

 

[GTPorsche]

Apparently there's also a VR app if you have access to Oculus.

 

[RedTailBoa]

Toyotas are looking strong. The #78 alliance seems to b paying dividends early

 

[Blitz24]

Oh god, that definitely won't be disorienting *falls down*.

 

[01GTP]

16 did not hit the wall.

As reported by #3 car, sorry.

 

[Blitz24]

I'm surprised that Biffle made that error.

I'm surprised that the tire didn't go quicker.

 

[Jahgee]

To me, this race has all but confirmed Erik Jones will race at Furniture Row Racing at some point in his career
