What happened to no more racing back to the line on a wreck?

Yellow should have been thrown at the time of the wreck.

Cheap, yea maybe but NASCAR needs to enforce there rules equally.

First nasstudmuffin race I've watched to the finish... and it was actually entertaining. Will Ferrell could have been in the Jack Daniels car (#7?), skidding across the finish line, upside down and on fire!

NASCAR's premier demolition derby is over.

yes the winner should have slid over the finish line upside down on fire, that would have been showmanship.

they didnt toss the yellow til after the finish ... and even if they did it wouldnt of changed the results .

On the last lap, with the wreck BEHIND the leaders, they do not throw the yellow until the leaders cross the line.

By the way, Harvick won the Daytona 500 on 2/18/2007. The date means something, especially to RCR people, but no one mentioned it.

there is no passing under yellow, so martin would have won if they called yellow when the wrecks happened.

Any other time there is a wreck yellow flag flown immediately.
Field is frozen and thats your restart position.

Why is the last lap any different . They will try more cheap watermelon then more than any other time.

Yellow should have been thrown at the time of the wreck, and field frozen.

As to who won at that time is moot.
My complaint is nascar enforces their rules when they feel like it.

Your not going to like this but.

Sr. got himself killed blocking to make sure HIS car won.
So I'd say he was more than likely to do his patented bump and go.
Especially if it meant the win.

Like it? I'd have to consider it intelligent and based in reality, not to mention from an informed source, before I'd consider liking it.
