Yeah, it couldn't be the fact that Kyle Larson is a better stock car driver than the great Juan Pablo Montoya.

And it couldn't be the fact that Ganassi only attempted a half-arsed effort in Nascar for the past few years.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Wonder why they show the gap to the position directly ahead rather than to the leader.

Ganassi as the Marlins?

Well, the team is run by an asshole owner, like Ganasshole here, but the comparison ends here.

Why do I have the feeling that the series PR director has sat down with the team bosses and said "hey guys, wanna stoke up some fires between yourselves? all good for PR yeah?"

I know it doesn't take much with Penske and Ganassi but the way he said that almost completely out of the blue makes me think this won't be the last time such a "controversy" appears this year.

Damn tight field. Only rookies not within a second. Cool.


If it rains during qualifying tomorrow (which actually is a pretty decent possibility), it will be interesting to see how this mixes things up.

Add it to my list of reasons why I like Tim Cindric.

Double-file restarts are gone from road and street courses. A real shame.

When they behaved it was good but unfortunately too often they drove like idiots. Especially in the late stages of a race.
