i watched a youtubers live race coverage drop 40ish % in viewership as soon as shane and kyle dropped out.
I am one of those who signed off once SVG was taken out.

Same here, I watch the NASCAR I the XFINITY series because of SVG, if he is not racing then I have other things to do.
The only way SVG was not going to win that race was if someother driver who is not up to the task took him out and that`s a fact. I turned off after he was taken out.

That wasn't intentional, that's racing unfortunately.
Here from OZ... yep you're correct, 5 minutes after the Gis crashed, I turned off the TV... Sorry

That was all of us
Unfortunate racing incident.. bumpy wet and long braking zone... this stuff happens.. i also turned off from canada after SVG was out.. he will have many many more races both oval and road in CUP. Onwards and upwards..
I will be honest with ya, I switched off after svg got knocked out of the race..
Blame everyone you want, but Briscoe WAY off the racing line, in the wet, sliding part sideways out of control into SVG cost him a good finish. Inexperience is all.

He showed poor car control, staying locked up all the way, no excuse, just bad driving. In V8 supercars he more than likely would have been penalised for careless or reckless car control.
i am the same as most the posts i see here as soon as i realized SVG was out i switched off
Yip, I turned the TV off after The Giz crashed out. However I remembered my next fav driver, Kyle Larson, was still racing and tuned back in shortly after. . . . needless to say I did not see the end of the race. LOL.
Stopped watching after SVG crashed out
Australia here. I stayed tuned till the end, but the vibes in Chicago resonated with some of the really badly decided and managed Supercar rounds or Bathurst weekends, where the race could have been much better.
You are dead right after SVG was out i totally lost interest as a kiwi i was looking forward to watching Shane work his way through the field, Bummer
Gotta admit.. having your favourite driver punted from the shadow realm by a Muppet kinda killed it for me.. i love a bit of bash n grind, but nascar is way too lenient on idiots n arseholes.. dudes be smacking competitors into the wall all the time, with little to no recourse.. Straight up, Very few nascar drivers would last half a day at bathurst
SVG pit stop was terrible, 1st to 4th and maybe he wouldn't have been hit. NASCAR should introduce a rev match gearbox for drivers that can't heal and toe down shift, it's embarrassing to watch drivers locking their rears in a straight line

Can’t blame the pit crew. I was mad at them initially but who would’ve thought that could’ve happened to him. Blame Chase Briscoe for running out of talent
I don’t know if you guys realised the time of day it was for us Down Under. Watching the F1 at midnight, staying up to watch Scotty Mac in the Mid Ohio race in Indy. Then to watch Shane clean sweep in Chicago only for Briscoe to be an amateur & take Shane out. Of course we turned that shyt off. I was pissed. Early hours on a Monday morning. Many of us had to shoot off to work with little to no sleep. Just know that Chase Briscoe isn’t welcome Down Under
I don’t think so. His pit crew lost him three spots at the pit stop which put him back to 5th and in range of lesser drivers. None of the front 5 guys crashed on the restart. I totally agree they need to start the race earlier so it’s dry. It’s a phenomenal race track when it’s dry. 😊

Shane didnt crash he was shunted into the wall by another driver I call that being taken out.

Shane said in his post race interview that he did not like been in front of the pack in those race conditions so I feel he was happy with where he was after that pit stop. It just dumb blaming his pit crew and even dumber going onto social media and posting that nonsense.

He was winning regardless of where he was on the grid. Especially from 4th. That was light work for him
I don't blame Briscoe at all... I blame NASCAR for the late start and the double line restarts ffs... But oh well hope NASCAR learns from this
The pit crew lost it for him. They were too slow. Teams fault. They screwed up the pit stop. It was too slow. They blew everything that SVG achieved in stage 1. He was the leading car, fisrt to pit but far from the first to leave the pits. He got jumped by 4 cars in the pit stop. Putting him back behind cars that he had already paseed, back in traffic with it all to do again. But this time in very bad conditions. The bad pit stop put him in a much more vunerable situation than he otherwise should have been. Lost all his advantage, control of the race and track postion. Very poor visibility at the restart because of all the spray coming off tge cars in front of him, and back in traffic with muppets behind him with little to no wet whether driving experience. Your right. As soon as SVG was out, I turned it off.

agree every race this year the pit stops have cost him .Its time the pit crew stepped up . Watching from New Zealand

As guttered as I am that he only got a 3rd of the race in, I completely disagree that the incident was his pit crews fault. That is just dumb thinking. Shane said himself he did not like being out in front in those race conditions. He was exactly where he wanted to be at that point in the race. The race incident was merely part and parcel that is the type of racing that is NASCAR.

Plus, made for some more exciting racing. He was bout to put on a show in those conditions. Not the pit crews fault. As mud as they are. Not their fault. Shane was winning for anywhere on that grid
Why don't they just make it a time certain race no mater the laps? That gives race control more options. Have stage cautions on time 25%and 60%Of race time , this will give the pit crew options now mater the weather and the viewers will get a more exciting race . It will be a unique format for nascar to make a true street race stand out not to mention the ratings.
Next year Indy car will be on FOX
Brisco was WAY OUT OF CONTROL and has no skill to correct a Car in a "4 wheel lock up". Are you Guys kiddin. ?
I wish all races were just timed races. Makes more Sense than lap count.
Agree double header would've been awesome to watch, i had the day off to watch SVG race, unfortunately it's racing.. unlucky.

A doubleheader time and distance with the second Race using backup cars and in reverse direction Saturday afternoon for the first race Saturday evening for the second?
If a race is timed, then why race?... Just conserve fuel, tires etc and just race hard for the last 5 minutes.

Timed or distanced! whatever comes first 2:57 ? And then how about using backup cars for a second race in the reverse directions?
Exactly. I turned my Kayo ff. After that. Pa😂rt because SVG. But part because Briscoewas an asshole. His experience at this level? Bullshit. How massive would it have been for the sport if SVG got the double? And not enough green laps anway in both classes. A shit show really. Nascar stuffed up. Historyin the making.
Stop. Why does NASCAR have to accommodate one freaking guy. An outsider at that. Never street racing. Never svg

What's wrong with SVG or any "outsider" coming over here to give NASCAR a try? "Accommodate" him? You know the street race was planned well before SVG announced he was running it last year, right?
