    @@joesmithguide well with these two tracks there is more than one reason. First is due to how close the racing is; when the whole field of cars at Talladega can go past the start/finish line in less than 2 seconds, no other track can compare. Along with that is the speed; going 200 mph around the whole track, it's hard to get away from somebody because of the draft everyone gets, even nowadays its impossible without help; but it's not just how fast they're going around the track, but how they maintain that speed. That is when we are separating these tracks from others, no other track has a draft that can work as well as Daytona or Talladega with these car packages and even if there is a glimpse of a chance, it's not as effective. You can also add that you don't need to run anywhere close to the wall the entire race. With all other tracks you see drivers using up the whole track for the fastest speed or time. So why the yellow line rule? Well it's for safety if anything. Otherwise drivers would be running each other to the grass 9/10 races (granted they already do that) but it also is supposed to be a punishment if you "disobey". Sadly it's kinda like the pass interference in the NFL, or a foul in Basketball, it's up for interpretation if they ran below or was forced below. Is everyone going to like it? Absolutely not; there are a couple of penalties I disagree on and some I believed should of been enforced, but I'm not apart of race control so it's what we got.

    @@connorallen8111 it's not so much a should or shouldn't, but more of a "will they make a move". With the playoffs incentive that winning meaning more than ever, and Daytona is the final race at the end of the regular season, so why wouldn't a driver who has no other way of making it take a shot? In the end it's a perspective on the rule, kinda like how drivers should race. Some people prefer it clean, others are willing to use their car to move them. If drivers are willing to put the bumper to others to move them for a win/championship, you can expect the same thing with or without a yellow line.

    @@wackyflappybob Everyone is pissed because the rule says "You can't advance your position under the Yellow line." Here's the problem: It's NEVER consistent. EVER. Just last year one driver went CLEAR TO THE WALL under the Yellow. They gave him the win. Justin was already in the process of passing and even if he didn't get below, he wouldn't have lost. He didn't use it to advance because he's already made his move. Then there's the other half of the rule: You can't force someone below, but more often than not the driver that forces someone below the line NEVER gets penalized, but the driver that IS FORCED is penalized. Next comes the reason it was implented, NASCAR wanted plate tracks safer, but since it's implementation, there have been on average 2.7 more big crashes (9 or more cars) per superspeedway crash every race. So the reason for it is shit too. So in short we hate it, because it's a blatant gimmick of a broken rule that hasn't worked in it's entire history.

Lest anyone forget that they usually didn't race back anyway, but think NASCAR *could* bring it back, in a way that allows for incredible finishes like the 2001 EA Sports 500, or 2002 Kroger 300...

As for Regan Smith, I also agree that he should have just held his line like Keselowski did to Carl Edwards in '09 and just turned him if Stewart blocked him. I've never had a problem with the yellow line rule, but I'd take it even further and penalize guys even if they are forced down there. Don't let someone force you down there.

    I think the two lessons that should be used as examples of holding your line when getting blocked are that 2009 Carl Edwards vs Keselowski example, and then later in 2009 when Stewart turned Kyle Busch for the win at Daytona. The first block is fine, but if you block more than once then the second driver should hold their line and turn you. A lot of people also don’t understand that on the last lap blocking is different in that the back car isn’t gonna cut you any slack even if you are clear. You can be clear and still get turned if you are clear by such a little margin that you don’t have a chance to get your whee perfectly straight before the car behind you bumps you. If the whee isn’t perfectly straight the front car will spin 9 times out of 10. It’s what happen to kyle Busch that night, what happened to Almirola at Daytona in 2018 and what happened to newman the other night.

  • @Bud8Amp88
    @Bud8Amp884 жыл бұрын

    The Hayley deal was, at best, a tough judgement call to make, but in the end, the right one. Using football as an example, if a player's foot touches, but does NOT cross the sideline, they're still called out of bounds. At the exact moment Hayley's left side tires touch the yellow line (at 0:58 in), he is still just slightly behind the 1 and 42, and this is the moment that he should be considered out of bounds. Even IF Sadler had moved down to block, all that would have done is possibly get both the 1 AND 24 penalized - Hayley for passing below, Sadler for forcing a driver below (the rule states: "pass below, you will be penalized. Force a driver to pass below, you will ALSO be penalized"), thus handing the win to Larson. The finish between Hamilton and Spencer is only "controversial" because Ultra Motorsports (and Spencer himself) assumed that the 2 was leading at the caution and had thus won. Remember, this is the same organization that assumed Ted Musgrave had won the 2003 championship, despite the fact that Ted had been posted for clearly passing before start-finish on the final restart. NASCAR shouldn't have let the 2 truck into victory lane until they knew for sure (which is something they've since gotten better at doing - see the Almirola/Allgaier deal later in the video). The third clip really wasn't controversial at all. The caution needed to come out there, given that a car had just turned over into turn one. The lack of a clearly definitive angle of the leaders at the moment of caution is maybe the only point of contention here. Either way, RCR would have won, so only Harvick or Bowyer would have anything to complain about here. A lot of people forget that, prior to the GWC rules, that NASCAR would announce at the drivers meeting the "Red Flag Lap" - that being, the final lap on which NASCAR would consider using the red flag to attempt to fit a final restart in. For the Talladega race in question, that was Lap 183. The caution for Vickers came out on 184, and officially started on Lap 185, thus meaning that no matter how minor the incident was, they would NOT stop the race. Now, they still could have called a quickie yellow on Lap 185, taken one to go on 186, and gone green on 187, BUT the fact that Gordon and Junior were challenging each other as to who was the leader meant NASCAR had to take two full laps to check the video (which again, like the Harvick/Bowyer finish, wasn't very definitive - it couldn't have been as fans are STILL arguing about it to this day...). I'll admit that I'm a Junior fan, but I will also trust NASCAR's judgement, so if they say Gordon led at the moment of caution, then so be it. That said, at least we got the green-white-checkered rules shortly afterward. I'll admit that the final clip was a bad call - either throw the caution immediately, or let the leaders finish. Don't let them get all the way to the frontstretch, THEN throw it while they're basically dead even. That being said, the replay at 13:44 probably ADDED to the confusion - the initial replay at 12:47 is pretty clear...the moment the yellow light comes on in the distance, Almirola is ahead. Then at 13:44 they try to sync up the caution light to the same replay, and when that yellow light comes on, Allgaier is ahead, despite the fact that the yellow light in the distance had been on for a couple seconds before that (nice sync job, NBC!). None of this would have happened if NASCAR had called it immediately, or let the leaders finish, so that's on them.

    Can thank Nascar's stupid idea of preventing Big Ones and Kevin Harvick for that finish. What was it, only one attempt at a GWC (that turned into two because they got confused)?

When a wreck happens the moment it happens the caution is supposed to come out. NASCAR had a delayed reaction on calling it.

    In other forms of racing, a specific area of the course will go under yellow, and a full course yellow is only used for a large crash. It's kind of dumb that the ENTIRETY of a 2.5 mile circuit has to be shut down because of an incident that happened in a single portion of it.

    I've never understood why NASCAR doesn't let them race back to the line for a wreck on the backstretch on the last lap like they used to. I thought that's what the Overtime line a few years ago was going to be for but boy was that a disaster. If it were up to me, I'd say for Talladega and Daytona, put a line halfway down the backstretch. If the wreck happens on the last lap before the leader crosses that line, for example, a wreck in turn 1, then the whole field races to that line on the backstretch, and after they cross that line the caution will be shown. So that line in effect becomes the finish line. But if the wreck happens after the leader crosses that line, so a wreck in turns 3 or 4, for example, then they get to race back to the actual start/finish line. This ensures that the finish is determined on the track instead of by a NASCAR official in the press box somewhere.

    I don't consider that when you block somebody or when you want someone no one really forces you to go below the yellow line in my opinion you choose to go down there instead of wrecking that guy it's blocking you instead of turning that guy Regan Smith could have turned Tony he chose not to that's simple It would have been a controversial win for either one of them

    @@ethanwhisman1277 I dont know if you have ever raced before and it's not like I have a true comparison to what Talladega would be like, I drive in the hornet class (4 cly, 2wd, N/A and only allowed to use stock parts) at Evergreen Speedway in WA state. Ive had someone do that to me and when they cut down across like Stewart did to Smith, it's such a natural action to turn away and avoid the wreck. Smith could have held his line and it would have ended like Edwards and Keselowski did in 09, bad wreck and potential serious injuries to drivers and fans. I've taken both options on track in real life. 1, Turned down the track and into the dirt and grass to avoid a wreck, lost several spots and kept racing. 2, Held my line and the guy came down like I wasn't there, cut my right front tire and lost seven laps in the pits. That said I take option 2 any chance I get, if that tire held up after contact I could have finished top five with that risky dive into turn three cause fuck it, what fun is racing if you dont push it balls out.

    @@ethanwhisman1277 I just watched that finish again and Stewart definitely cut down when Smith was already inside, it looks to me like there was contact that hit Smith down. He probably could have pushed his way back up above the line sooner. After watching again I think if he had held at the bottom line both him and Stewart would have been in the wall or even fence giving the win to Menard who was in third at the time.

Yeah, there were close calls, but really I feel like the rules were followed properly in all of these instances. I have no problems with any of the calls that were made.
