@jeff_gluck Watched the race. Reminded me of why I donβt watch F1. Car speed, grip & handling were impressive. Basically no on track passing after the chaos in turn 1 lap 1. TV coverage stunk although that is somewhat due to the track layout, the field getting strung out and no passing.
@jeff_gluck Make cars harder to drive so driver skill matters more; increase hp & reduce downforce. Eliminate 1 stage. Start races earlier. Put more adjustability in the cars. Many races remind me of IROC. Everybody runs same speed, no passing. 10 driver 10 race playoff. Most points wins.
@jeff_gluck I was there, 5th time. Place was 1/2 full at best. Seats coming out of oval turn 4 were pretty empty. Seats were a little more full coming down the track towards oval turn 1. Prefer the oval but I think taking out the back chicane would make the front chicane very interesting.
@Hendrick5Team Poor performance by driver, crew chief and team. So disappointing. Trouble starting the engine at the beginning of the race, radio & communication problems, car set up was off, avoidable damage on a restart that was not communicated nor recognized until too late, come on guys.
Sorry but this @nascar TNT telecast from @RaceSonoma sucks. Too much jumping around from place to place on the track and car to car. Show me a complete lap for the leaders for crying out loud.
@DanielsCliff what a great crew chief, strategist and manager of the race. I think had he followed @chadknaus as @JimmeJohnson crew chief we would gave had an 8x champion.
Spotter @TylerMonn is so good at calling these races for @KyleLarsonRacin that I almost think that I could drive the car. Well not really but you know what I mean.
Nice job by @TyGibbs with a P5 finish after overcoming some adversity earlier in the race. I like to see this kid do well and look forward to seeing what he can accomplish in the future.
I figure the @penguins will need at least 96 points to make the playoffs. Need 34 more points which equates to winning 17 of their remaining 26 games. Thatβs a big hill to climb.
This @NASCARONFOX race is unwatchable. They miss 6 green flag laps every time they go to commercial. Must have missed at least 60 green flag laps so far.
