I would gladly eat LJS if it means Larson wins. The entire end of that race was bush league. Larson had that in the bag…
Been a slow start for me being able to pay attention so far this year. Need more nascar in my life.
Do it!

Following Friday's lone 50-minute practice session at Phoenix Raceway, NASCAR inspectors confiscated the hood louvers off all four Hendrick Motorsports cars the No. 5 of Kyle Larson, the No. 9 of Josh Berry, the No. 24 of William Byron and the No. 48 of Alex Bowman.
Hood louvers are vents in the hood on each manufacturer's car that serve as a release point for ducts that transfer air out of the radiator.
The use of vents prevents the need of teams' to tape up the front grille of car, which had been used extensively as a performance adjustment tool in the previous iteration of race car.
Louvers are considered a single-source supplied part on the Next Gen car and NASCAR has issued severe penalties for alterations to those parts in the past year.

Following Saturday's qualifying session, NASCAR announced it had also confiscated the hood louvers from Kaulig Racing's No. 31 Chevrolet driven by Justin Haley.
Larson and Keselowski both running in the top ten…
Oh I love a good strategy play let's see how this shakes out
Harvick's team choked.
What in the wide world of sports was Kevin Harvick thinking on that last pit stop?
They were the first to take 4, everyone in front took 2
We'll see what stickers are worth here
Larson doing good work blocking on that restart…
Gibbs wrecked.
Always a beautiful site
Ugh.
Two weeks in a row…
Two weeks in a row…
Larson starts on the outside, Reddick pushes him instead of Byron out front.
Yeah, but I think he was worried about blocking those really low runs on the restart…
All Hendrick cars in the top ten.
…and now we wait to see what they decide about the louvers they took off the Hendrick cars.
NASCAR penalties: NASCAR docks all Hendrick drivers (except Elliott and Berry, who doesn't earn points in Cup) and teams 100 points, 10 playoff points. Hendrick crew chiefs suspended four races, fined $100K. Same penalties for Haley. Denny Hamlin docked 25 points and fined $50K.

Woah…
Hendrick got hammered. I am an HMS fan, but if they were altering parts, they deserve. NASCAR has been consistent with that penalty. Also, Elliott avoided the penalty since he isn't racing, so he now has the second most points of any HMS driver.
And Hamlin was stupid for admitting to wrecking Chastain on purpose. If he had kept his mouth shut or denied it, he wouldn't have been penalized.

Why did Hamlin pick this time, when both were pretty much out of race, to wreck Chastain?
Why not, you know, do it last year in playoffs when it was meaningful?

wow that's a big penalty
Well, Josh Williams was told to park it…

Drivers… start your engines!
Anyone else watching? Atlanta Motor Speedway…

Shocker. A caution in Atlanta.
The pit road entry being at the start of turn 3 has really changed strategy to an extent. Talk about moving at a crawl for a long ways.
A big wreck.
Here comes the hate on Chastain…slight bump to Harvick gets him turned and it all falls apart.
I still think Chastain needs to come out with a line from Earnhardt…
"I wasn't trying to wreck him, just rattle his cage a little."

Replay shows Chastain didn't even touch Harvick
Just one of those issues in a plate style race.

Sucks for Larson
This race sucks. Trucks and xfinity do awful in Atlanta with the track renovations. Cup marginally better.
