Honestly I would prefer a boring finish like this than having an absolute shit show at the end due to overtime, leading to the deserving winner getting absolutely screwed.
2018 Dover. I still don't know why FOX decided to remain onboard with Harvick on the last lap when he won, instead of switching to the Start/Finish line shot of him taking the checkered flag
I’ve been to both the ‘18 & ‘20 Auto Club 400 and these races were boring at the track, but once the next gen came into play in ‘22, It produced amazing racing. Unfortunately we’ll never know it’s full potential…
lol I was at the 2021 Coke 600. That was in fact a very boring finish. I was also at that 2017 Pocono race. Was hype to see my favorite driver win, but besides passing Hamlin and then using the bumper to move Harvick in the same lap, he won in boring fashion.
long green flag run races are miles better than having like 13 restarts in the last 40 laps, sometimes it's nice to have races like these regardless if they're entertaining or not
That Talladega finish with Logano pissed me off. I absolutely hated that "bubble" style plate racing with the Gen 6. From like 2014 to 2018, ever superspeedway race the leader always had such a massive advantage.
I can excuse the Logano win at Talladega because it's Talladega. I could've been big, there could've been a huge wreck or a photo finish. I don't blame the announcers for thinking that Talladega was gonna 'Talladega' the field
I mean it would more be like races from the 40’s to the 60’s you wanna talk about boring finishes back then guys finish laps in front of 2nd place. I know we don’t really have much footage of all those races I’m just saying nascar is still closer than it’s ever been.
so the outcome of each f1 race is due to a driver having the best pace and strategy. sorry we don’t throw 5 gazillion overtime cautions to cause more crashes.
@@raidoftherage7545you should, Verstappen dominated the first few races, but since then we’ve had 7 different winners and some nice races with interesting strategies, although ofc not as good as 2022 NASCAR
@@jessestewart947 their are other videos that have more dominant wins than these. Some of these were not even dominated by the driver that won. They just pulled out to big leads at the finish and you could see they were going to win with not much else happening throughout the field from 30 or 40 to go. Plus we have dominating performances that weren’t necessarily boring finishes like a few of Harvicks wins at Texas or phoenix where he made passes for the win within 20 or 15 laps to go. Pretty much why he was nicknamed the closer lol.
The most boring races are the ones that have Corey Heim and Christian Eckes winning Like the Pocono Rave with Corey Heim And Christian Eckes at Nashville where he lead all the laps
What is boring about someone winning by a large margin - they earnt the win on speed. Would you rather someone dominating a race and losing on a gimmick GWC double file restart wide open finish because some slow field filler 10 laps down decides to spin out with 2 laps left? Except Ty Gibbs of course.
This is why I hope for late cautions if the leader is half a lap ahead. It keeps the last part of the race interesting. As long as a villian doesn't win

This shows us how awful the last version of the Gen 6 car could be! But, also shows us the steamy pile that is the Next Gen car on pretty much any track that’s not an intermediate. It just shows NASCAR needs to work on this next Gen car, but they are too busy arguing with teams about it charters that they let happen and now don’t want to honor the obvious next step.

You're gonna have to say either of the last 10 years or something because the fact that these are all modern era let alone last 10 years discredits your whole sentiment
There is nothing wrong with these finishes. It's just the low attention span crowd that doesn't like these. Are these "exciting" finishes? Of course not. But they are incredible in regards to the ass whopping the winner gave the field. Racing isn't about having constant close finishes. How come in other sports it's celebrated when a baseball team wins by 10 or an NFL team wins by 40 or an NBA team by 30. Yet in racing, the fans just say its boring lol.
you should consider your ass lucky that that is the worst you've got. Look into any NASCAR history book that covers the sport from its beginning in 1949 to say the 2000's. If you though those 2021 finishes were boring, imagine if this was the 50s and 60's. One car taking a cake walk victory while the entire field is 5-10+ laps down with many not even finishing. If races then were like today, fans would be bitching and moaning (like they always do) and how it was the most boring race in history. If I were you, I'd be happy with what I'd got and not that. As for the bribe part, I call bullshit. What evidence do you have that Hendrick bribed NASCAR.
