If it wasn't for NASCAR having an overtime (caused by Preece's brain dead move) and the win and your in playoff format, none of this would have happened. Dillon would have won the race without incident after undoubtedly having the best car at the end. But instead we had a race that finally went EXACTLY how NASCAR has wanted after all these years.

[@nomadman5288]

It depends on what you mean by "deserve." You don't just deserve to win because you led laps and were pulling away towards the end. Before the caution (that Stenhouse caused, not Preece), had it stayed green, anything could still happen, like a blown engine, tire issue, brake issue, driver error, etc. You don't deserve it until you've won (unless someone clearly wrecks you as you're coming to the line, then a much better argument could be made for it). I understand what you're saying, and I agree with it being a result of NASCAR's rules and that they're the ones who have given the drivers incentive to drive this way. This is ultimately on them for creating this environment. Unfortunately, it doesn't matter what the fans or consumers of the product say; we all know that NASCAR is never wrong and that this is the best format ever created in the history of sports.

Kyle larson is the only reason I watch nascar now

[@WahDizzy]

It's almost like a full season long points race is still the truest and most pure way to determine a champion and entirely avoids this kind of drama. I stand by to this day that Jeff Gordon should be the actual third 7-time champion, and not Jimmie, when looking at the true and full season long points total if NASCAR didn't try to fix what wasn't broke. And I say this as a mid-30's millennial growing up in his early years being a diehard Dale Sr. fan who can only remember the painful years of his falling off, outside of that glorious 1998 Daytona 500 win, and being beyond frustrated and hated to see Jeff take his mantle as the best in the sport at that time.

[@seannolan9857]

That does depend on exactly what full season point system you use. If NASCAR used F1 points, Johnson would be the only seven time champion in Cup history. (Though not quite the ones he did win, as he'd lose '08 and '16 while picking up '04 and '12.)

Every race for atleast 5 years has had a very similar finish. There's almost never a time where there is a clean finish anymore. And don't pretend that any of the overtime finishes for the last 5 years are any different. One guy wrecks at least one other guy for the win almost every single race and has done that for at least 5 years. Yes it's stupid but this select incident isn't any different. He like every other driver is out there crashing people to try to win in the final laps period.

I'm going to be honest. This could've been one of the best Richmond races in recent memory. Then lap 398 happened. Then lap 406 happened. my god NASCAR and their drivers literally cannot get out of their own way. Dillon deserved to win. Dillon didn't deserve to win like this. But of course, since you have three of the more disliked drivers calling the move some degree of asinine (and when was the last time you ever saw two seperate drivers call the same thing chickenshit?), the idiots that call themselves fans are going to applaud Dillon. spare me.

9:09 this man is a gem. Exactly how I race, not an iRacing person but in F1. Hard, close racing is how it should be, maybe even a slight bump or two.

[@boba7039]

If you watch the replay, starting 200 feet before the line that starts the restart area you will see the front of the 22 car is even with the beginning of the 3’s passenger’s door. When they get to the line that starts the restart area the 22 is even with 3. Either the 3 slowed down or the 22 sped up for that to happen. It looks to me if you look at the relationship of the 3 and 22 in relation to the other cars, the 22 sped up. That gives the 22 an unfair advantage because his car has forward momentum at the line. The 22 should be disqualified for jumping the start. Look at other replays for the contact of the 3 and 11. Look at the position of the 3 and 11 in relation to the bottom yellow line of the track and the first lane dashed line and keep in mind that they are both still in the exit of the turn. You will see that the 3 in straddling the first lane dashed line and the 11 is at the bottom of lane 1 next to the yellow line. Now go frame by frame and watch the cars in relation to the 2 lines. You will clearly see the 11 moves up and into the 3, the 3 is NOT moving down. The 11 caused the accident.
