“So this is how you knock off the winning driver in the last lap? Basically do a Pitt maneuver on him and then you get to win because with him out of control he causes the field behind you to have accidents?

What a waste of a race.”

Crap like this does not happen in F1 - the driver would be fined, penalized (loss of points) and three points at least would be added to his super-license.

NASCAR is a joke.

Crap like that doesn’t happen in any other race series other than NASCAR sanctioned ones.

Yeah the parade of F-1 is real effing exciting. Watching grass grow is more interesting.

In open wheel bumping is not allowed because, well, it is open wheel. Drafting and bumping is standard practices at Daytona and Talledega.

Get over it.
