LOWNDES DESERVES THE CHAMPIONSHIP.

Those angles make it look worse from Ricks POV.

The front angle clearly shows Craig moving across to block Rick.

Their is a reason that it looks bad for Kelly.
And no, its not the camera angles

All it does is confirm my view that Lowdnes contributed to the incident

yes the incar shot is the most conclusive and supports the argument that Rick was squeezed/blocked by Lowndes

Its clear Todd was far to wide, Craig was on the racing line and Rick Kelly was never ever going to get past Lowndes, but Lowndes had a fair chance he was going to get past Todd, as he was way off the racing line before he entered the corner, Rick just smacked into the back of Lowndes blatantly, strip the dirty cheat of his points from race three.

How he was having a fair dip at passing Todd who was out very wide and off the racing line.

And rick was having a dip at craig because as the clip shows Rick had the speed over craig at that point.Craig moved across therefore cutting Rick,s braking distance down by a third hence why IMO opinion Craig contributed to the hit.
Like i said in another post at best Rick would have been level with craig coming out of the corner however he would have had to concede to craig for the next corner or face the possabilty of going off.

How do you explain Rick's argument then that Lowndes was going into the corner too hot and would have missed the corner anyway?

This is the problem when you lie (Rick that is), eventually it catches up with you.

Well im not sure why rick would make that comment.The only one who was likely going into that corner too hot was rick himself.If he didnt hit lowndes he may well have done a bright and spun himself.

Craig had to brake as Todd would have come back across onto the racing line to take the corner, Craig was in a tough spot, Rick would have seen that.

I agree Craig was in a tough spot however he would have been keeping his eye on whats behind him[RK] than TK hence Craig moving across RK,s line.

He was trying to cover his ass. He knows he was at fault. Unfortunately he doesn't have the brain power to do this effectively so he lied. He should just tell it like it happened... no way was this Lowndes fault. He should just admit fault and call it a racing incident, but he's too arrogant to do that.

The pass was never on and he was stupid to try it. He said at the start of race three he would be more aggressive. His idea of "aggressive" is kamakaze, crazy ********... if there was ever half a chance he would dive for it regardless of the consequences.

This was how he used to race and I thought he was over it, but old habits die hard. Taking Bright out at GC Indy was the most dangerous passing attempt I have seen. He had the same mentality on Sunday.

So where was Craig supposed to go????

 

[S.C[BANKS]]

Craig is the real champion this year, Kelly was reckless.

Craig never moved to block, he stayed on his lane.

Unfortunately, there are people who can not see this with only one eye open, or are clearly stupid in all things motor racing, because he was clearly driving in the way anybody would, he didn't move across, he stayed on his line
