[@pitracer87]

it's amazing how good NBC is on the basis of production value and Dale Jr...despite Rick Allen, despite Jeff Burton, and despite Steve Letarte.

[@down-n-outinNC]

For all the people complaining about the flag being thrown. Nascar waited as long as they could in throwing the flag. It was a single car spin and they were anticipating on him moving but he didn't. They don't want another Blaney incident at the Allstar race.

[@AlphaHumphrey]

They shouldn't have waited at all. If they throw it for Bell spinning before he even came to a stop, the 41 should have gotten the exact same treatment.

[@smashkirkman]

Caution's aren't always thrown for safety in Nascar. They are often thrown to artificially make the race closer (same with "competition" cautions, lucky dog unlapping, and stages). Nascar wanted the flag for Bell's completely harmless spin to bunch the field and have more carnage. They did not want to ruin an exciting two car drag race to the finish. It's an attempt to manipulate the race. Not because they care who wins and want to rig it - they just want people entertained. They don't care about driver safety or the spirit of the competition AT ALL.

Should have been a caution with one lap to go so should have had the restart but other than that I’m not sure what Denny done wrong?

Still full races but broken up into 3 parts. Just to create some strategy and reward drivers for finishing well at the end of a stage

[@XGmastersX]

@@michaelherman1721 isn't there already strategy in just a no stage race? Seems like an artificial way to bunch the field up

[@b.j.morgan8175]

The races are still full, it's just broken up into segments. At the end of those segments, points are awarded to the top 10. At the road courses, the race stays under green. On ovals, the caution comes out at the end of the segment. For example- race length 160 laps. Stage 1- 40 laps - ( top 10 in running order get points) stage 2- 40 laps/lap 80 in race (Top 10 in running order recieve points) Stage 3- 80 laps/End of race- Final points awarded to all drivers.

[@michaellarson8913]

We have stages because of the younger people having no attention span for a 500 mile straight through race. It doesn't matter that intentional cautions are just stupid - we have to get the younger fans to watch at all costs to the REAL race fans and car guys that made this sport

Didn't Chase Elliotr say it was impossible to control the cars after a right side hit on the wall? How come he's the only one with that problem? Larson seemed to be able to keep driving.

[@bryanmorton5504]

Larson got lucky when he won stage 2 running on fumes and lucky again that the caution for the end of stage was just 1 lap and the caution between stages are usually at least 2 laps and sometimes longer they were in a bind if he had to go 2 laps and ran out of fuel. Guess his luck ran out and he was crashed and he finished 21st where he probably was going to finish if he hadn't been lucky and didn't run out of fuel. If you run out of fuel at Pocono you can kiss a win goodbye

[@bryanmorton5504]

Am I the only one that thought NASCAR shortened and made sure that Larson was not going to run out of fuel. I have no problem with Kyle Larson just seemed to be a shorter caution than usual. I'm a fan of one of the other Kyle's and he was having a horrible run and not a threat to win and if he can't win I just want to see a good race

[@lolimadethisvid]

bruh you are totally misinformed. They always end the stage under caution if there isn't enough laps to restart before the stage end. They would've had to pit Larason with about 4 laps to go but the caution came out with 6 or 7 laps left in the stage which allowed him to save barely enough. Ran out coming to pit road essentially

[@michaellorenson2997]

Obviously, to be fast at Pocono the car has to be set up pretty loose! Denny won here in his first season of 2006 - he is the King of Pocono. Haters are hating in the comments, but I'm a _longtime_ fan and an experienced racer myself, and I think NASCAR is doing a good job overall. These cars race and handle better than the old ones, and they are great looking to boot. The old cars were uniquely difficult beasts to drive, so something has been lost in that way. But time marches on and NASCAR is probably healthier and stronger (than it would otherwise be) for the changes it has made.
