Michael Mrucz said it best about Hailie Deegan. Her career “ended” when she switched from Toyota to Ford.

You're right, context matters. And you left out the context that both of Bowman's last 2 seasons were ruined/marred by serious injury. And when he got both those injuries, he was doing really well at the time. He also had to break in a new crew chief during all that, and his cold streak happened simultaneously to William Byron finally having his breakout season after being pretty underwhelming for 4 years straight. I'm glad he finally said something back. Also, LOL at people saying he backed into this win when he led the last 8 laps straight on a 2.2 mile street course that was damp and super technical.

I absolutely love Bowman's attitude. Since he last won, he's missed races due to injury on TWO separate occasions. How many other drivers have had to deal with that? He drives the 4th Hendrick car, which has been the privilege of such racing luminaries as Casey Mears, Brian Vickers, and dark days Dale Jr. over the last two decades. He's won more races than Kasey Kahne did in the 5. And is it a coincidence that he's "backed into" a win 5+ times over his career? Not to mention he's one of a tiny handful of drivers who still has a loyal, full-season sponsor. NASCAR fans take it so freaking personally when a driver doesn't perform to the level they "should" be performing at. Just appreciate a fun win by a driver who makes the Cup field more enjoyable to watch.

As a HMS fan, I absolutely love seeing Bowman show some personality. We need more of that from HMS drivers for sure.

I think with Bowman, we also need to take into account his back injury last year. It was pretty clear he came back before fully recovering last season as he has run more consistently this year. Still the 4th best Hendrick car most weeks, yes, but that’s still been good enough for top 10s most weeks and as long as you’ve got top 10 speed, you can capitalize on good luck. We also have to keep in mind Jr. basically hand-picked him for that car when it was the 88, so he’d probably have to lose Ally funding (unlikely as they seem happy with him) have some young driver REALLY impress at JRM in XFinity, or do horrible for multiple seasons in a row for Hendrick to drop him.

I personally would like to see Jr and Harvick get Deegan in the car series for some races this year especially if Ford is dropping support for NASCAR stuff. She could bring attention to that series and possibly get some confidence.

Didn't Hailie have a couple, maybe three times the car had issues? I think the 15 lost a cylinder twice due to ignition problems and once she ran out of fuel due to a late call by the crew chief. I think she was also spooked by being involved in a lot of wrecks and chose to run at the back with a late run to move up. Because she had a massive public image I think it may have been too much pressure on her to perform and was somewhat distracted. I am not making excuses but pointing out some reasons for her lack of success in Xfinity. She has shown some good results in the SRX series and good finishes in some road course series.

She isn't average as far as pro drivers are concerned. She's average in the sense of the person next to you at a red light. Everybody knew it and she was just a rich kid with no talent that some marketers tried to promote, sell and benefit from. It didn't work. And because she's a young woman sponsors were even quicker to waste money on her. There's way more talented ladies in motorsports, they're just generally not rich brats who have no accountability for their decisions, or the race cars they destroy. H.D.'s indifference regarding her actions on track and disregard for the many people who work very hard and drop millions on her is deplorable.

Things did work out well for Bowman. Either way, he qualified good, finished around 7th or 8th in stage 1, 2nd in stage 2 and won the race. Good job!

As a Bowman fan, absolutely hit the nail on the head. When’s the last time Bowman’s dominated? Auto Club?? He needs to be upfront more, he’s the 4th Hendrick car and it’s not even close

Eric did you listen to the radio traffic between Lagano and the 15 crew chief, no lateral grip and asking Lagano how to fix it, just saying its not all her fault, and if the 15 is good why isnt Moffit driving it?

The crew Chief 's Who made the Wet Tires call made The winning call ? Reddick is To hard on Himself .

Said it while she raced trucks, if her crew didn’t act like college party boys on the radio with her and actually treated her like a driver in a business setting, she’d probably have more success.

I don't think Halie's social media popularity should get her a ride. Getting a NASCAR ride should be about talent and Halie Deegan has none. Unfortunately in today's world that's a thing. Just ridiculous in this backwards world.

The biggest issue with Deegen is in the Truck Series she didn't improve. Then it made me mad when she got to Xfinity because people like Ben Rhodes and drivers like that deserved to be moved up. She didnt deserve it after dismissal finishes in trucks.

It’s easy to set behind a microphone and make comments about Alex bowman and Hailie Deegan.

in my opinion, this race for SURE deserves dates for years to come, the racing product the past 2 years has been great, but we just need to have a dry weekend for once!

@Crush1084

Can't control the weather at all. But they need to give the event weather related wiggle room. The race should not be given a 3:30 local start time. And I get that's an NBC call, but if you want the event to stay a ratings win, should probably let it go the distance sometimes. I'm actively not looking forward to next year if it's gonna be the same nonsense

Bowman gets so much undeserved hate man. Dude has a great personality and has proven he can win races in that car. Is he dominate like his teammates? No, but he flies under the radar and can be competitive, not to mention he’s had a concussion and a broken back in the last year and a half

Alex Bowman is a top notch driver. Lets not forget that he lead the series in points last year through the opening start of the season after coming off 2022 with a concussion to unfortunately break his back. If he can stay healthy, he can get more wins and be a more serious competitor

I think the big thing with Deegan is track time and practice. Her first season in Trucks was the first year without practice/limited practice. I think she's an example of someone who needs those 50min practice sessions.

It would not shock me if he came out of nowhere late in the race to win Pocono.

I think Bowman haters just want good racing. Whenever he wins, it a boring race, or he got lucky/wrecked someone, and won with the 10th fastest car.

She is a good ARCA driver at best. It's not all on her. It's on the manufacturers and teams rushing her up the ranks without letting her develop. Social media popularity, sponsors, and charisma don't mean talented.

The Chicago street course chewed up and spit out Larson,Hamlin and Allmendinger. Bowman earned the win and in the last 2 years has dealt with a concussion and a broken back. GO ALEX!

Here's an out of the crowd comment as a Hailie Deegan fan. I think the radio chatter from the Xfinity race at Chicago says a lot. Remember, The current crew chief was asking Joey Logano how to adjust on the car (Legit). Logano who was running 12-16th all race had to legit coach the crew chief since the team didn't know how to adjust on the car. If you're getting the same thing with Hailie Deegan, then how can you put most of the blame on Deegan? I'd argue the blame is 50/50. Also, part of me believes that Deegan decided to leave on her own terms, because the crew chief and Deegan just didn't communicate well. And when you don't communicate well, thats when the entire team, Deegan included, doesn't perform as expected.

Remember, The current crew chief was asking Joey Logano how to adjust on the car (Legit). Logano who was running 12-16th all race had to legit coach the crew chief since the team didn't know how to adjust on the car. Note the, "Logono who was running 12-16th all race had to legit coach the crew chief..." All drivers earn their rides by KNOWING what a car needs. They learn this through experience. Experience the Deegan was lacking. Sad, because I too was among the hopefuls for her in her career. Maybe she does need to step back and try again. No. Not maybe. She definitely does!

Joey finished 8th, and he did it on a pretty wicked race course. To me, that proves they are a good team, and now they can go out and get a quality driver. I personally don't think she has anything in the works. Her statement was full of horse hoooooey.... might see her driving a grocery cart at Publix, but that's probably about it.

Eric, I love your channel and I think your take on Bowman is mostly right, but a win is a win. Bowman has been running reasonably well during this season and he is the only driver in the four car team that has endured a crew chief change. In a 4 car stable like Hendrick there are days when a top ten doesn't look like much when you have guys winning 3,4, or 5 races by mid season. Yeah yesterday was a sloppy mess with weird circumstances, but all the other Hendrick cars were crap and Bowman through great strategy and good driving was able to stifle the JGR beat down. Yes there was luck involved, but look at Logano last week. No one is questioning his season being back on track after his lucky win in weird conditions.

Under the Winston cup format, Alex Bowman currently sits 6th in points. What a solid year he's had, a career year in the going even! Certainly better than his teammate Kyle Larson who sits 11th in points anyway...
