Growing up in a family that all loved NASCAR, I can't bear to watch it anymore.
Of the MANY reasons I find the sport ridiculous, this is one of them.
Nobod can settle to finish where they are on the last lap of any race. Instead they try to make stupid moves and end up wrecking half the damn field and turning millions of dollars of racing equipment into scrap. For what? To gain 5 points for leading a lap? Guess what, no you got no points because you went flying *** over tea kettle into the fence.
They all ***** about the lack of good sponsorship now and trying to cut costs. You wanna cut costs? Stop wrecking so many cars every weekend and watch the costs plummet.
They're going to analyze this incident to death and design better fences and better walls, and claim to make it safer, but it wont be. What they wont do is blame the drivers who are the cause of all this bs. If they all just used their heads and realized finishing 2nd,3rd,4th,8th,17th is better than not finishing at all and costing your team assloads of money this would not happen nearly as often.
