Celebrate before, stopping a race for anything but a crash or weather is pure BS to bunch up the pack because if effects the outcome. That kind of thinking is why I don’t watch NASCAR any more.
from what i understand, they aren’t stopping the race during the race but between stages when the cars are in the pits- it’s just 30 seconds extra-
Agreed. A moment of silence BEFORE the race would be nice. In the middle of it is tacky at best and maybe even unfair to the drivers. At worst, it could be dangerous.
Agreed. I used to follow it religiously from a kid in the late seventies up until just the very early two thousands and then around 2003 I just got tired of it. Haven’t regularly paid attention to it since.
Agreed. Makes sense to me.
FWIW, I've always liked watching various car sports events (Nascar, drag racing, monster truck competitions, etc), but never was so into any of them to be concerned much about the ins and outs of what was going on. I would just watch them as I came across them while flipping through the channels.
B.S.! The pause time is during the normal Stage 3 stop of the race...
"That kind of thinking is why I don’t watch NASCAR any more."
Yep! NASCAR's patriotism causes many fans to turn to watching the NBA or soccer leagues where hatred for the Nation runs rampant...
