Denny Hamlin Reacts to Ross Chastain's Shortcut Move at Indianapolis | Door Bumper Clear
Спорт
Door Bumper Clear's Brett Griffin, T.J. Majors, Freddie Kraft, and special guest Denny Hamlin talk about Ross Chastain being penalized for using the Turn 1 access road to take the lead from Tyler Reddick on the final restart at the Indianapolis Road Course. Hamlin admits whether or not he would have done the same move and debates with the spotters if NASCAR made the rules clear enough. Brett explains why drivers were making aggressive moves and which ones were the main culprits. Hamlin chimes in about the level of respect being shown by all drivers on the track right now.

Denny is an amazing person. Like many athletes, he has his personality when on the track. Remember, we see these guys as soon as they get off the track and running 500 miles. But I can tell you this. My best friend has a child that's special needs. She was a HUGE fan of a Nascar driver. They were able to get a garage pass and they spent the entire weekend at Darlington. When her favorite driver came walking by, she stared waving and trying to say hi. Her parents were waving right at him. He wasn't more than six feet away and ignored him. She was crying. a little later after trying to calm her down, Denny Hamlin came walking by. Not only did he stop, he told her everything was going to be okay. He put his arm around her and gave her a hug. Signed and took a picture. Taking a few minutes out of his day, changed her entire weekend. Her father (who hated Hamlin as a driver) just broke down as you might imagine. My point of that story is we judge these guys based on what they do on the track and the few interviews right after they get out of the car.

@kevinkenyon1254

They will never move the starting line from the bricks, this is Indy! But easy to fix with a few gallons of white paint. Just paint a line that funnels the cars two wide to the outside turning into turn one. You can call it the "Logano Line." It shifts the apex entering the first turn much farther to the left and will stop the amateurish dive bombing. Cross the line during the race and it's a stop n go penalty. Cross the line during the last two laps on a restart and it's a 30 second time penalty. For those taking the alternate route just make a stop n go line before the right turn then a second stop n go line at the edge of the track before entering.

5:45 - 6:05 Usually I don't agree with a lot of what Denny says, but this time he's talking sense. Especially to point out the 22 and the 2 in turn 1. The 22 on the restart with 3 to go just piled it straight into turn 1 which ended up cleaning Kyle Busch and the 14 and the 23 out, and the 2 on the GWC restart just drilled Suarez into 1 which shunted Suarez into Blaney and AJ and led to the 12 getting spun. Just reckless driving, definitely looked bad for NASCAR. Ross Chastain taking the access road imo was a smart move, he was on the outside of 4 wide and he knew he was gonna get cleaned out if he tried to make turn 1, shame it didn't work out but at least he saved that car from further damage. If Ross had gone into turn 1 he was 100% getting shoved into the grass and maybe spun, AJ was to his inside and even he ended up pretty much completely in the grass cause of the #2 shoving Suarez into Blaney and AJ

Denny is actually one of the smartest and makes what should be happening in a language that's understandable to the average fan. His problem is when he's talking about him after a race. He's obviously got a temper and to be fair they stick a microphone in front of these drivers faces the second they get out of their cat after a 500 mile race. Denny is great when he hasn't just gotten out of a racecar
1: Make the rules _CLEAR_ 2: Use an IndyCar type of system to assess penalties real-time during the race. _(Meantime later)_ *AND* Another thought, change turn one. Here’s a crazy idea since NASCAR seems to like them so much, use the run off lane on restarts, then use turn one the rest of the time. I don’t know why all road courses have to have a first turn that is almost impossible to get thru on restarts. Contact in open wheel cars is not as forgiving so those guys are usually not as gung-ho as NASCAR drivers have become with this new car. And that may be part of the problem, drivers seem to be more willing to shove right into a crowd knowing the car can take the punishment.

This is why NASCAR needed to do some timing on the bail out road, make it to where you loose too much time to make it a viable option. Could have added a chicane or weave-throughs that would have added time to negate any advantage. Indycar/CART had this issue back in the mid to late 90s and it solved with these features.

There is such a simple solution to solving this dilemma. Keep the access but add a tight chicane at the end to slow the car down and prevent the driver from advancing his position. The need for this access is essential to try and eliminate some of these wrecks in these tight corners.

I clicked on this orepared to disagree but honestly spot on with this discussion 100% good segment
My thought is they need to develop a front end that isn't as strong as the current one. Use it only on road course. Then when you plow into the back of someone you have a better chance of damaging your radiator or aero.
NASCAR should make it an option for all with no penalty. I think it would make it very interesting for the fans. That way we can keep the start finish line where it is. Reduce Wrecks, in turn one also. It’s a win-win!
I still think single file for OT restarts.
It seems to me that the first lap on a restart needs to be routed somewhere other than that first turn in order to allow the field to string out a little bit more.

They made these cars more durable with better brakes and this is what you're going to see. Pushing it way too far and not caring about moderate contact.
NASCAR should adopt a rule, where if you cause the wreak, like Logano carelessly making a 7th lane and blowing through the field, then you get sent to the back of the field for reckless driving. It's easy to tell, whether something was carelessly done on purpose vs a racing deal, like sure NASCAR wants the drivers to police themselves, but it's contradicting when they get slapped with a fine or points deduction if any retaliation of any kind happens.
Funny how they don't talk about Bubba cutting the corner same as Briscoe in 2021 same place different year.
They should apply the penalty equally, all or none! The only way to reward aggressive driving is to in turn penalize folks who cause random nonsense
Turn one at IMS is I equal to turn one at Monza. In terms of being send city.
Reddick went pretty slow into that turn and made sure nobody was underneath him. If he was going to get bumped it was going to be just before he got into the turn so it wouldn't hurt him too much. Not while he was turning.
Classic Harvick Single file absolutely Love Kurt
Pave the area between turn 1 and the access road, open it all up more like a chicane.

They should just turn the current runoff area into turn 1 rather than using the 90 degree right hander.
Absolutely agree with Denny, at the very least its gotta be about respect. If I don't want to be the pinball getting piled into from behind, I'm not gonna be the jackass piling into the car in front of me, maybe on a green white checkered but they were 5 and 6 wide in the middle of the race just because.

I love watching the stock cars on the road courses... Turn one in Indy is the worst design ever, and not enough thought was put into it. It's about as bad as the final turn rumble strips / speed bumps last year... They need a chicane before turn one to funnel the cars down before the turn. It goes from the wide oval track down to the narrow road course way too abruptly. And the run-offs. and access roads need to require a full stop before re-entering the race course.
