That was pretty damn impressive by Logano
Brutal for Chastain. Dang
So. Will they find he's got something illegal with his gas tank? He went way longer than anyone else.
Wonder how many more sponsors this will happen to. The team charters system is set to expire this season.

Hendrick Motorsports has dropped longtime sponsor Hooters, saying the restaurant chain known for chicken wings and skimpy wait-staff outfits could not meet its financial commitment to the NASCAR team.
That is a weird take from ESPN. Typically the party with the $$ makes the decision. Hopefully the new revenue sharing agreement makes it less sponser dependant.
Not real sure what it has to do with the charters. Hooters recently closed 40 restaurants and they're clearly bleeding money. I think this is just a case of a sponsor no longer paying the bills and Hendrick wasn't going to wait around. I bet they can find some temp sponsors to help offset commitments from them the rest of the year.
Feels like Saturday today; I keep thinking "oh, what time does the flag drop for the race tomorrow..."
Teams want more of a cut of the TV money so they're not as reliant on sponsorship money.
I understand that. But this is a case of a company who committed sponsor dollars to a team slowly decaying and the team not waiting around to see if they can solve their issues.
Hendricks may be able to blow off a sponsor that's not NAPA, Ally or liberty/raptor. Most other teams cannot And yes, Hooters is not well financially
Exactly. Rick would rather slap Hendrickmotors.com on the car and write it off that company's expenses than put hooters on and not get paid.
So let me get this straight....
Denny Hamlin won the pole in Chicago last year and finished 11th. And this year he's +135 to finish top 10?
I know street racing probably isn't his wheelhouse, but in a race that could get a little chaotic, I like those odds on Denny especially with a race under his belt there.
He's 25/1 to win... I don't think he wins obviously but that seems like good odds if you want to sprinkle it.

Damn that was a shame to get a caution there we were headed to a dynamite finish
With Logano racing in Deegan's car today…
apparently Logano on the radio had to explain to the CC how to make the car less tight lmaoooo what a mess of a team

Wow.
Rain in Chicago.
I'll put my money on SVG.
I'll put my money on SVG.
Agree he's likely but I'm going to put a small bet on Bell just due to his odds.

Yep. I assume he's going to put on a clinic in the rain.
Glad NASCAR is letting the teams decide if they use slicks or rains.
And KPRC Houston just switched over to Beryl coverage. Guess that's it for my nascar watching today.
No peacock access?

Oh, nice! I forgot about that. Thanks!
Briscoe tried the dive bomb and forgot it was wet
SVG out, LFG Bell
Well that's one way to beat a wet weather road course driver. Just run him over.
Blows that SVG is out dude can wheel it
This is it. I don't see how they race again given the radar.
This race is so dang cool, the in car shots show how hard this course is (both watching the drivers work and looking out front how tight it's)
Wow Larson
That was such a hard hit. Looked like his controller disconnected
Larson once again proves the "win or DNF" bet is a good one.
And the 41 completes the trifecta of SHR cars to go headfirst into a pile of tires.
Joey Hand wins stage 2
Imagine if he somehow wins this one.
It's a shame that it's been 2 straight years with rain but I do like this race. I initially wasn't too keen on it when they first introduced it but the set up of it makes it a pretty good circuit.

Plus it doesn't hurt that NBC is broadcasting it
Would be a total debacle with Fox
