Definitely NASCAR's inability to throw the caution at Daytona last August. It was literally raining when they were on the backstretch the lap before. They had so much time to throw the caution but they didn't. And it backfired badly.
@windrose5988 It was more down to the stewards making a mess of the rules. First they delayed telling Ferrari about the decision until after the deadline to inform them had passed, and then applied the wrong penalty.I'd say the weirdest (or most farcical) in F1 were either the 2005 US GP, or 2021 Belgian GP.
Haha that’s me at 5:10 interviewing the Infamous Fence Climber. He actually eventually made it down to join me in a LIVE interview. He’s become a great friend
Back when my dad had NASCAR on every Sunday and I woke up early enough to watch it, I loved watching Kyle Bush race one of the main reasons: He has an M&M car, and M&Ms are one of my favorite candies
yeah there was an F1 race in like 2009 i think it was and even with rain tires the cars wouldn't stick and all drifted off the track haha...so rain tires aren't perfect lmao
@@BigOleMattypretty tough with all the oils and chemicals layered in the track on top of all the rubber, they do a great job with track prep and such, but you can only do so much and that turns it into a slip in slide like wet clay
HOW?! Darrell Waltrip is what makes NASCAR fun on TV! Even if you're not a NASCAR fan, his iconic line of "Boogity boogity BOOGITY! Let's go racing!" line is amazing and is often a meme being used in multiple race series be it in GT Racing, TC racing or even F1. It's just that iconic.
Here's some dumb moments you forgot to mention: 1. Kevin Lepage wrecking almost an entire field of cars just trying to merge on to the track at Talladega back in 2007 2. Kyle Busch wrecking Ron Hornaday out of spite at Texas back in 2011 3. A lot of cars bunching up in one turn almost blocking the way at Chicago last week
Kyle Busch wrecking Hornaday wasn't all that dumb in my opinion. People forget that a year or so prior, Ron wrecked Busch and ruined his chances at a title. It was eye for an eye, and Ron had it coming.
I'd personally argue about NHMS only being wet in turns 1 & 2. I was there and for the final 3 pace laps, it absolutely started coming down relatively steady. Not a heavy rain, but a very consistent rain, everywhere. When they went green, my buddy and I looked at each other in absolute shock, and then were immediately unshocked when no one had any grip at all.
@@HighSideHustler811 That same race also gave me a greater appreciation for camera exposure. I was always on the side that Martinsville 2015 was dark, but it definitely didn't seem as bad as they said. When they ended this race, it was like phone illuminate your entire face dark. I couldn't make out the car numbers on the back stretch and its only a mile track. I came online after to fans having watched on TV saying it wasn't that dark and it made me chuckle at myself.
The single dumbest thing of all time was adding Gordon as a 13th member. The wildest thing i have ever seen was the fan that asked Kenseth for an autograph during a red flag at the Glen lol
Dumbest thing that ever happened in NASCAR...in 1986, a fan stole the pace car and drove it around the track right before the start of the Winston 500 at Talladega.
Get over it. Larson was out of line and Wallace was understandably displeased. Was it wise? Not really. Was it NASCAR racin'? Yeah, yeah it was. 100% behind Bubba Wallace.
Both The Bubba Wallace/Kyle Larson Ordeal and The Chase Elliott/Denny Hamlin Ordeal are virtually identical Considering that Kyle Busch was the cause of the very previous caution prior to each incident, Kevin Harvick was literally in the picture ahead of both Incidents and Team Penske won both events
NASCAR’s failure to throw the caution for rain at Texas cost Harvick massively in 2020. Im still surprised he didn’t tail them for it because my interview wouldn’t have been able to be shown on TV
If you recall Hamlin almost wrecked too. The fastest two cars that year should never have been in the situation they were in at Martinsville. We were robbed of, in my opinion, the most fun rivalry of my lifetime. Nothing over cartoony, no unnecessary drama, just two great drivers and great teams, that so happened to be really good at the same tracks. We'll never know how well Harvick, or Hamlin for that matter would have ran, had Harvick been at Phoenix. (I firmly believe Hamlin would have had a much better car that day if Harvick was in the final 4, because those two teams pushed each other to greatness). Apologies for the long winded response, but that bs by nascar is the most underrated screwjob of all time
This video has changed my mind, Nascar isn't bad or boring, though it may have (a lot of) morning moments, its just the silly guys of racing. will def check out some of those wet circuit races where its a slip-n-slide.
I was at that 2021 new Hampshire race. My bestfriend and i were in line getting food and we hear the stands going wild. He looks at me goes "what do you think happen". I replied "2 things happen either kyle busch wrecked or chase elliott took the lead". We get back to our seats to see the replays and I was right on both guesses
Hello, you should do a video ranking the top 10 best final seasons from drivers. Even thou there are not many that are good I would still like to see what are your top ten. Long time fan of the channel, keep up the great work.
Bubba Wallace knocking one of My Favorite Drivers off the Road has Angered Me and My Father so badly, and that is exactly why I hate Bubba Wallace with a Huge Flaming Burning Passion
I remember seeing one RUclips comment saying Wallace needs something about anger management, and honestly they aren't wrong, the guy is kind of a menace.
Best Nascar announcer to me will always be Benny Parsons.Very honorable mentions : Neal Bonnet, Ned Jarrett, and Larry McReynolds. But, the absolute icon will always be Chis Economaki.
Just remember F1 dont stop their races in the Rain. They have 2 style of wet tires. Green and Blue tires. Blue has more of a tread that can grip in heavy rain while greens are more intimate rain on the track. NASCAR tries to use wet tires but try and do 180 on a oval in the rain with Heavy Rain Tires is impossible and you will hydroplane once you hit turn 1. Road Courses you can do it because of the speed differece and you can change your breaking and coasting to avoid the hydroplaning
I mean it depends on amount of water on surface. Even on normal tracks they will stop race if it rains hard enough. Well if car hydroplanes at turn 1 at acceptable rain condition then tyre is not doing its work or you are going way to fast/driver mistake. nescar is still a car you should be able to set it up so it can handle it by giving it more surface area. Issue with all of this is nescar driving culture is "drive close, bump, spin other guy..." having mirror is considered safety feature lol, that kind of driving is deadly in rain conditions. I would argue it is harder to race on normal tracks because most dangerous situations are under breaking and drastic changes in grip levels, and on top that you have puddles forming on even surfaces. Nescars are still cars they can use same techniques like any other car right ? How is this easier then just driving on oval I don't get it : /watch?v=zWkY22UjPzU&ab
I was at an F1 race in Malaysia, a 3rd of the way into the race a huge (and typical) downpour came, the tropical all the water in the world droped from the sky in just 15 mins, but untypically the rain didnt stop after 15 mins... it went on and on until the race was called. But before it was called these F1 cars were doing only 30mph and STILL sliding around like they were on ice, i was seated by a wicked turn and every car ended up in the grass on that one, spinning grass and mud as they slowly got back onto the track. Oh and the whole parking area tuned into knee deep mud at the same time all of the spectators left the stands, and all at once and quickly as it was still raining, people were covered in mud and falling down everywhere, was hilarious!
Missed: 2013 Daytona 500- "Drivers, and Danica! Start your engines!" Poor James Franco- he really meant "Gentlemen, and Danica", but... in hindsight, he may have been correct....
Kyle Busch is definitely the world best backwards driver. They probably don’t do anything about it since he’s one of the best racers and that gives them a lot of profit from him being entertaining.
RE Announcing. I announce local motocross races, and I can tell you for a fact it is very hard to balance calling the race, covering for downtime (cautions in NASCAR, injuries in motocross), injecting humor, AND keeping energy up for the fans. (The energy part is even harder when you also compete in a race or two the same day like I do.) So it is easy for announcers to get tongue tied, mess up names, or say random stuff in the heat of the moment. And working the same tracks every season as I do, it is also hard to come up with new on mic material. But it still is a lot of fun!

Definitely the bubba Wallace Kyle Larson incident,that was so dumb Imo
They got mad at Tyler reddick for turning around when he was next to the pits at Sonoma. That’s pretty dang dumb
Ricky stenhouse jr wrecking people at Daytona in 2018
