Pretty cool show of solidarity today pre the race.
Well done to NASCAR for that.

Mike Joy struggling to keep it together




If the image of the King Richard Petty hugging Bubba doesn't send the message , i don't know if anything ever will.

Looks like the noose was actually fashioned out of the garage door rope and not only had been there for a couple of years but is actually a popular thing to do in the US (wtf??)
Also Bubba never actually saw the noose.
Annnnnd of course this has kicked off the trump supporters that it was a setup, a blow up etc...

If I was assigned a garage for an event and saw the noose I'd be a bit freaked out as I have opened some garage doors in my time and have never seen one fashioned into a noose!!

 

[NSWCROW]

Yay that there's one less case of racism in the world

i guess

******* hell... NASCAR shooting themselves in the foot with this stunt. Good luck shaming the confederate flag NASCAR mobs after this.

Since when is NASCAR back live on Foxtel? They had been showing 1 hour highlights for the past year or so, but I must’ve completely missed the announcement about races being live again

It’s very hit and miss, they do the odd one live.

Interesting... - dirt??

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

I’m not super familiar with dirt tracks but I feel Bristol might be a bit too big for dirt? It’s going to be pretty fast for dirt as well, the trucks are pretty slow at Eldora because of how small the track is.

2021 NASCAR schedule has championship weekend at Phoenix Raceway

NASCAR promised radical changes to the 2021 schedule and delivered with six road courses, the first dirt race for the Cup Series since 1970 and new stops.

A must watch.

Be interesting to see if Kody Swanson gets drive, he's king of the Silver Crown series & they run at Bristol (1/2 mile) & one mile tracks on dirt & sealed too.
He runs in the feeder series for the Nascar main game.

Did anyone know one of the Davidson brothers is in the Cup series?

Bristol on dirt, strange.

The Xfinity race at the Indy road coarse was really good this year, so that should be good.

Desperate for relevance.

Who are you thinking of ? Australians?

James Davidson, he is actually the cousin of Will and Alex. Should have done my own research instead of listening to my old man.

They won't let him race at Talladega this week.

Why not? Do you need a super speedway licence?

Actually he is allowed this time, it was the last Talladega race that they wouldn't allow him.

Davison might give a better result.
Anthony Davidson drove F1 & is on the F1 coverage & simulator driver for Mercedes.

Qual 38th at Talledega.
