Breaking down the Byron-Logano incident | NASCAR ON FOX

I remember a post race interview with Gordon saying about his win "what did you expect? it was for a million dollars"

[jmilz]

Man that 24 paint scheme is just so iconic . It was so nice to see

[antoniovgmx]

Why would Logano give a guy who already walled him a chance to do it again? Move him and call it a day.

[suzylarry]

I do not like the way Joey Lagono pushed in revenge of what happened 26 laps back, BUT Dale Earnhart used to do this during his prime days and had the same results and words at the end ! To bad for both, but that is racing !

[vicbrown]

In the past I may have thought the Joey Logano not right but this IS the way racing is done these days. This isn't the first time racers raced like this. Back in the day Earnhardt, Waltrip, and Walace raced just like this. I just don't understand the big deal. This is the way it has been going all year so why complain just because it is Logano?

[sRacing]

pretty simple----Byron got the lead by pushing Logano up into the wall----Logano got him of story

[rogermay]

You all are missing something. Watch the replay. Watch the exhaust under the driver's door of Byron's car. See the puff of fire. Byron lifted and Logano closed on him very quick before he even knew it.

[spunn_co]

thats called bump and run ..its 100% legal

[Threekings]

All I’m saying is switch the drivers and this is an entirely different take from Fox

[jayryia]

But you guys have TELEMETRY DATA. Why not watch the two cars parameters? Both drove in and both came off gas same time, but Byron slowed dramatically. I asked this of Larry Mac on twitter as well. yeah joey sent him, but nobody finds this odd that Byron slowed THAT much in the corner?

[pcarp]

Logano had him, he just eliminated the possibility of Byron wrecking him on a clean pass.

[mrjohnjulius]

Well, this is nascar racing but Byron did pinch Logano then Logano did a classic Dale SR . maneuver,

[davidwash]

But no one ever said about old Dale Sr did it every race and everytime someone was in front of him racing isn't like the old days

[billnolte]

Imagine NASCAR blessed announcers that find no fault in the GM racer. The only shock (kind of) is McReynolds basically saying get over it in a very long way. Odd that none of them mention how much Byron had slowed over that last 10 laps and that it appeared his slowing was basically checking up right in front of Logano. Where exactly was he supposed to go? The whole "controversy" is just silly.

[sparkymcplug]

Joey didn't wreck him; he gave him the "chrome horn", something Dale Ernhardt did for years and was never criticized for.

[millerontheroad]

Logano had a run and Byron lifted...see the flames come out right before contact...not saying Joey wasn't gonna give him bump & run...just racin...poor Willie B.

[ChurchOfChristguyRob]

Dale Earnhardt used to do this all the time and everybody love him, why was it okay for him to do it but nobody else

[antoniovgmx]

Byron didn't lift for Logano to keep him from the wall and Logano caught him and gave him the same treatment

[Bretware]

Ya wrecking another driver to win is okay as long as you're not Joey Logan, people are so bias and stupid it's amazing.

[miguelbarrero]

If I'm a racecar driver and a competitor pushes me into the wall I'll be very upset, would you ??
