SAFER barrier caught a car splitter, cue longer caution.
 
Pit lane reporter fail... "They're going to have a rookie... running for rookie of the year..."

EDIT: Kenny's splitter? About to go green, hold on!
 
Like wrecks usually communicate back to the TV directors saying "Hey guys, it's coming."

Sometimes you can see there's one possibly coming, so you are prepared. But I can't blame them for kinda missing that one, the main crash happend in around 4 seconds and came out of nowhere.

Like I said, at least they don't start making ads when it goes green, overall it seems like a lot less ads than what Speed usually does.

I'm watching on MotorsTV, but it is an ESPN feed, so I can see every commercial break too. They just don't show the ads, but two cameras (Kurt Bush on-board and a leader cam from above the main tribune). Pretty cool, just a bit quiet because the leader cam is the only one with sound.
 
Bayne got away again. He's been having some good luck!

ESPN has got better at the restart stuff. Normally they would get back from commercials about half a lap after the restart.

And more wrecks. Pretty sure they aren't done with those yet either.
 
Reminds me of DW @ Atlanta a couple years back "If there's anyone left.."

That gave me an awkward feeling that Kurt and Kyle will be the only ones left.

When you see a race with that much attrition, you do tend to wonder.
 
Interesting... I thought Scott Speed didn't qualify for the race. At least that's what I remember them describing on ESPN.

Not sure how he managed to get involved in that wreck....
 
Damn good finish even though Bayne barely made it.
 
I'll be honest, Kyle Busch's hit looked very Earnhardt-like. :scared:
