We’re all forgetting that Sherry Pollex died around the start of the playoffs. That has to be a factor in MTJ’s collapse. They were together for almost 20 years and even though they broke up he probably still loved her.
That’s the factor I think to the demise. I’m not sure what occurred between them to break up last year but his decline seems to correlate with the passing of Sherry and I think overlooking that as a factor would be a mistake.
If Blaney wins the championship we truly do live in a world of "And then the opposite happens". So many people picking Truex to win the championship after winning the regular season only to then flounder it away, and so many people marking Blaney to get knocked out in the first round due to it having many of his weaker tracks and his relatively mediocre summer stretch, only to go on a tear and possibly win a championship.
Edit: He did it
And if blaneys doesn't!?
@@rsf1kirito483then we don’t live in a world of “And then the opposite happens”
And then the opposite happens
@@yes-it-is-i Yep
Yessir
I just want Harvick to win the race 😢
Me too. Harvick for the win and Larson for the championship.
ty dillon has been the goat all szn.
he is literally him.
he will win the championship.
He's def gonna become the first driver to win 8 championships and 201 career wins. No cap.
Not funny
We made sure this had exactly 77 likes. Just like his car number and the amount of wins he’ll retire with, at least.
@@Wrlixeryou aren’t funny bro💀
Facts bro
Great thumbnail, I mean seriously just phenomenal thumbnail idk if you’re an evangelion fan but great thumbnail, perfectly encapsulates how MTJ fans felt these playoffs
Lets not forgot that the death Sherry Pollex ( MTJ's ex girlfriend) would probably weigh downs MTJ's mental health
The 34 deserves a deep dive for Round 16, because holy fuck
If you were to look at the qualifying efforts for that round, you'd find that Michael McDowell, in Front Row Motorsports equipment, tied for *3RD* best in qualifying with Tyler Reddick and was only outdone by Hamlin and Bell. You look at the results, you would think the 34 just crashed out before finally getting a great run at Bristol...only to find that the car which qualified 9th and 8th would be struggling to remain in the Top 30 after about 50 laps. It was as though they showed up with a Drag Race setup, hellbent on only qualifying speed, but having nothing for racing with nearly 40 other drivers and the dirty air/traffic
I know some cars collapse once the race begins, but that's usually due to pit crews, pit calls, or the track changing. This car was not dealing with any of these factors, it just became a parachute at the green flag and fell to where they were running QUADROUPLE their qualifying position. Just pure ineptitude at that organization, cause if they bring a 20th place car to Kansas and Darlington, that 34 makes the Round of 12. Those three weeks are perhaps the biggest heartbreak for me as a fan, because seeing those qualifying efforts yield godawful results only to see them FINALLY get it right at Bristol, shit is rough...
You didn't have to draw Shinji wearing Truex's firesuit in the thumbnail to get me to click, but you did.
THANK YOU! The whole of NASCAR media seems to trust James Small, and I felt like I was the only one who just didn't see it. He had one call that got Truex a victory early, but besides that, if the team was doing well, you could all but guarantee Small was about to screw it up. I also don't see how fighting over the radio can be beneficial, and the fact that Truex has always had a hot head does not make that better.
a Blaney championship will give me the happiest memories of my life as a nascar fan
it did.
BLANEY BABY
all in for Blaney this year. You pair his recent momentum with previous results at phoenix in the falls of last year and i believe you’ve got a 2023 champion without a doubt.
I became a fan of Byron because he got his first win at the first race I attended, the 2020 coke 400. I'm so happy to see him get this far, I knew he was going to have a breakout season but he exceeded all my highest hopes
I really hope Byron wins, but I think either Larson or Blaney will win
1:17 - Stewart-Haas Racing is becoming the new Roush-Fenway Racing
Connor has had suck bad luck with his predictions he just decided to completely skip them 💀💀
Also gimme YRB hoisting the Cup
Hopefully Larson wins, but with Blaney's worst finish at Phoenix being 4th it's tough to say who's gonna be the 2023 champion.
Edit: Completely forgot about William Byron and his 6 comically large hats throughout the season, he has an even better chance. Can't wait.
Edit 2: Well you actually got one prediction right, an out of nowhere mistake cost Larson the championship...
Larson did it before.
Bell can clutch up when he needs to.
Byron and his 6 wins this season.
Blaney at his best track.
As a certified hater, I hope Larson doesn't win.
I just want harvick to win man 🥲
@@stickmanguy5583 In other words, all four of them could win.
@@turbo_marc yes lol
Of course… Truex is like Shinji.
I didn’t know Elly is a Evangelion fan too.
I'm just glad the Roush 17 is back and fighting for wins.
As a long time Kenseth fan dating back to 2002 - its good to see the 17 running at the front.
As a KFB fan, it is genuinely eerie how similar MTJ's current situation at JGR is to that of the 18 team of 2008-2014. Before Adam Stevens came along, the "Kyle Busch Recipe" went something like this:
2 or more victories in the regular season (often 4 victories)
1 high seed in the postseason (regular season title is optional)
1 postseason full of futility and/or agony (this can be achieved in multiple ways but the most iconic is via engine failure)
1 Crew Chief whose personality often conflicts with that of the driver (looking at you Dave Rogers) but not enough for relations to have a complete meltdown, leading to year after year of high-performance mediocrity
Throughout the season, it often felt like the 54 was the recent upstart team and the 19 was the real team that inherited the 18 after Kyle left despite it being precisely the other way around.
As a Denny fan this year, it really felt like this was his year. Seeing his speed in the Ro16 and how he advanced early in the Ro12, the Mechanical DNF kicking him out of the playoffs felt like a gut punch. Especially given that next year there will be 2 RC and 2 Plate tracks in the playoffs, which could mean more unfair eliminations
I really, really like your content, and it has opened me up to a whole motorsport I otherwise wouldn't pay much attention to, but as someone who actually rarely catches a race or even highlights due to being international, at least putting the drivers name up with their number would be really helpful!
No Choke is as bad as Kyle Busch 2008. 8 wins into the Chase. Multiple DNF's.
Well since the round of 16 I've thought Byron will win... Not saying it won't happen but for some reason I want to lean towards C Bell, but we will see.
Byron has honestly had the least impressive 6-win season in memory. They've been consistent top 10 and top 5 level, but aside from his domination at Watkin's Glen, pretty much every one of those victories happened when they got lucky and the front runners made a mistake that the 24 team could capitalize on. They were particularly lucky this year, as that "6" in the win column indicates.
I'm a bias Bell fan, but I think he has a real shot. Other than Larson's championship, Bell has the highest points finish of the others, 2nd last year. He may not have put together the same kind of season as last year, but he is still showing that he's quiet talent and has the best shot at coming away with a clean race
I got Byron taking the cup he’s been my pick ever since the playoffs started
Although Larson could also taking it knowing he has the experience same with bell but I would argue Larson is the favorite coming into this championship
The only cars allowed on the track for the Championship should be the original qualifiers. This would eliminate team racing to a greater extent. I recall only one move over flag the entire season.
I think the only think holding Bell back is his god awful pit crew. They’ve don’t him no favors this season and probably knocked him out of the championship last year.
I think no one has any qualms about Blaney Winning the championship and I am all here for it
But I think Byron puts on another show of dominance and wins the championship
where can i find the thumbnail. I love it but as a truex fan I relate to it
Love your videos. Keep it up and you’ll quickly take over the nascar RUclips world
William Byron. A,K,A, The Big Hat Man.
2023 NASCAR Cup Series Champion.
Hope: YRB
Realistically: Byron
7:25 nice touch with the shot of all 4 championship drivers
Take note: don’t announce silly season plans AFTER you win a race. Martin confirmed he was coming back after winning New Hampshire and the entire season fell to shit.
Goddamn holy fuck I hate people that say bubba is a playoff threat I’m not a hms fan but having two hms cars injured for many races and causing them to not make playoffs. If bowman and Elliott were not injured bubba and harvick would be not in playoffs
Thumbnails perfect ⚓
GET IN THE RACECAR, TRUEX!
whats the song playing in 2:50? I know it but cant remember from where...
Interesting choice with that thumbnail
Larson or Byron can save the format by winning. If Blaney/Bell win, more fuel to the "this format is ass" debate....which I agree it is.
I find it funny how Robin Larsson won Nitrocross last season, and now Kyle Larson has a shot at NASCAR.
Another Elly vid just as I’m starting to watch Cup on a semi-regular basis! Vamos
blaney will have the penske hax at phx. it's his to lose.
larson was two chastainings (dover and darlington 1) and two hamlins (kansas and pocono) away from an 8 win season. two late race yellows (vegas, phx) from a 10 win season. whipped em all at the all star race and it wasn't close. the biggest error he made this year was at homestead when it didn't matter, and every Q lap at road courses. if cliff gets him close with under 10 to go, watch out.
As an irregular nascar viewer, i'd really appreciate if you could not just give the car numbers but also name the drivers. I'm for sure not the only person that doesn't know most drivers numbers and felt quite lost in the early part of the video.
Also, great choice of music as always.
The thumbnails for your videos are great!
my heart is leaning to the 24. Byron's momentum has slowed considerably, but the dude can still drive phenomenally.
24 car captures the championship for the first time in over 20 years.
HEY MARTIN FINISHED JUST SHORT TOO
HE WAS JUST AS GOOD AS DENNY IN THE ROUND OF 8
*shakes head tries not to cry*
Man I miss Cole
HOLY SHIT THE THUMBNAIL EVA REFERENCE
I’m hoping for a Blaney win, or begrudgingly a Bell win. If Byron wins it’ll be no surprise, and his first of 8 Cups.
you jinxed it for rowdy nation
KL5 FTW. Love that Blaney is doing well… sucks to see MTJ Slip the way he has throughout the Playoffs but we’ll get it right.
Yo that thumbnail is legendary
Truex didn’t even get a description, just “19”
I appreciate the use of the risk of rain 2 soundtrack
I'm picking Christopher Bell I think it's his time to win the championship and stake his claim as one of the best drivers in the Cup series right now because I personally think he is what is amazing generational talent he has.
These Playoffs were bleach in the eyes for us KFB fans. Hopefully Busch will have a true redemption next year
The fact that there’s a NASCAR Hater’s Guide makes me so happy
I'll be mad about chastain's dega until I take to my grave
NEW Subscriber 😊 ROWDY FAN FOR LIFE ❤️🏁🤙🎱
Remember Truex fans, there's still room to go even further down in points.
Really hoping for a C Bell championship this year. On the other hand JGR, let's leave James Small and the 19 pit crew in Phoenix after the race.
i want cbell so bad but its gonna be willy b getting it done
BEST. CHAMPIONSHIP 4. EVER.
Also, gungeon music 👍
Logic says Byron, Playoff format says Blaney
Always have all of Hendricks going to the final 4, but this year im going 24 and Willy B
I’m all in on Blaney! I made a last minute decision to go see him dominate at Martinsville and ready to see him win the Championship!
I want Blaney to win. Not just because I'm a fan, but also because we'll get a new episode of Glass Case
Being a #20 fan since Matt Kenseth, I know who I’m rooting for.
I was not expecting to hear enter the gungeon music during this 😂
shinji???? shinji truex jr??? what !!!
2 videos in a week?
Were being blessed
I want Blaney to win it but I think big hat boy is gonna get it done
My head says Byron wins it, but my gut says Blaney gets it. Something about this year just feels different for him, and I think he's got what he needs this year to pull off the upset
I love how blunt you are. Got damn I wish everybody else was so honest. All we get our political views and bullshit. Great content keep it coming. 💯👍🏻🏁🇺🇸
I think Byron takes it
big hat!
I want the boss of big hats to win for us sim racers
Denny Hamilin= Ferrari
mtj missed the final 4
all according to the great james small master 🅱lan
Joey Logano is doing what the San Francisco Giants Did, even year, Odd year
thumbnail so real
I think Blaney is going to win it but god I hope Bell can pull it off.
GET IN THE CAR SHINJI
Actually i quit watching and unsubscribed from all NASCAR channels but i guess i missed this one. I was gonna try to finish up Harvicks career since hes been my guy since 2001, but i just can't do it anymore. I'm completely sick of hearing about playoffs.
My driver didn't even make it to the playoffs lol. But I like all the champ 4 drivers
Who I think is deserving to win it: Byron
Who I'd like to see witn it: Blaney
10/10 thumbnail
I'm pulling SO HARD for Blaney rn
worst thing is I'd like all of them to win it
Woah tree your voice really changed
I need that thumbnail
Young moneyyyy
Blaney !
please let Larsons controller disconnect so I don't have to see another hendrick win
#5 Yung Money wins his 2nd championship
I think it’s gonna come down to blaney or Byron.
Bell and Stevens 🏆 2023
Personally I would have gone for the Yamcha death meme instead
The point about Yamcha is that he peaks early, has way too much confidence, and then is immediately clowned in.
Yamcha is Ricky Stenhouse Jr and JTG.
Bell is the deserved champion. Especially if you go off Winston Cup metrics.
Byron
