Jimmie J did a good job with a 360.

Jr had the momentum. Legal or not, Vickers got in the way.

Vickers didn’t need to cut that low but Jr. could’ve come back up better.

weren’t no need for that wreck.

I don’t blame Jr. for that crash. I blame Vickers. He shouldn’t be blocking that extreme with 75 laps to go. JMHO.

I remember 3 or 4 years ago when Vickers took out then team mate 48 and Jr late in the season.

Small world

Yes. Junior could have avoided it. That was a rookie mistake and a half - he should have backed off as soon as it was clear that Vickers would block. Turning into Vickers like that was just dumb. Even if he was trying to let Vickers know he was unhappy, it was just stupid.
