Martin Truex, Jr wins stage 1. 10 bonus points to stilled, superbox and ranagee

 

[dara]

Wow, major mistake by #19 crew.

 

[dara]

I've not heard of this mistake, of putting tires on the wrong side, at least at this level and in the championship race.

Truex gets the lap back ... lucky

 

[dara]

Caution comes out, Truex gets back on the lead lap.

 

[dara]

Truex gets the lap back ... lucky

Yeah, the Lucky Dog.

Crazy restart, Hamlin and Busch fighting for the lead on the cooler track.

lol 4me2c

so true today

 

[dara]

Maybe the last green flag stops happening now.

 

[dara]

Harvick sticking out there for a caution, Truex is in the pits but is now significantly behnd.

Byron on the access road, keeps the green flag out.

 

[dara]

Sucks for Hamlin, too much tape on the grill, and overheating. re-pitting.

 

[dara]

It looks like its Kyle Busch's race to lose, Harvick just pitted.

 

[dara]

Just a heads up, NASCAR is not scoring the stages for the championship 4, just the overall race. Our bonus points will still be good though, but if Kyle B wins, he will only be awarded 40pts by NASCAR. I'll check the final official results, but there won't be that much of a difference in the final total, as most people picked the same drivers (if not the same favorite).

 

[dara]

Congrats to the 2019 NASCAR cup champion, Kyle Busch.

50 bonus points to dishuser, bigstar, Ryu, 4me2c, crazed
