He’s 100% right. Road Courses have now turned into demolition derbys. It’s not a good look for the drivers or the sport when you have drivers running over each other for positions. It’s stupid.

[waffles]

He said 110% of the truth! Honestly I feel like road courses now are less special/more annoying now. Road Courses are now just wreck everyone and hoping you get a lucky caution break. That’s what Road Course is now in NASCAR.

I like Ryan, he’s as frustrated as everyone is not able to pass. He’s tired of working all week, racing well all day only to get taken apart near the end. I wish Nascar would put in penalties for aggressive driving but now it’s okay to punt a driver under caution.

I love that he didn't give a shit about Larson. Ha ha. And why should he. Just made me laugh when he said it.

This race was one example of why I think removing stage racing from certain events throughout the season and running green to checkered would benefit the series.

Spot on! The road races used to be my favorites. Now, the late cautions and subsequent restarts have ruined them. Ryan explained this perfectly. It seems drivers in 12th think they should be able to bring home a win. And hey, if they plow through enough cars, they might. NASCAR isn't supposed to be a demolition derby.

Cota was the perfect example of u can't pass so u punt them out of the way. Same with Indy sure the turn 1 was part of it but they can't get around people without divee bombs

Been a Ryan Blaney fan since he first started racing. And can't wait for him to get his first championship.

I've been watching a few of your videos and you ask questions that truly engage the drivers, you don't get cookie cutter answers and I really like that about your style. Earned a sub from me for sure!

[kbtus]

Put the sheet metal bodies and weaker bumpers back on! Then these guys won't do this crap nowhere near as much

This interview is why he's my favorite NASCAR driver. He's 💯 correct and I also do not care about Kyle Larson lolz

[johnmartinii]

Ryan is one of the best. Look how many races he has stayed in the top 5, and lead in the last couple of seasons. He is consistently fast and doest get near the coverage and credit as the little pets in Nascar. I've seen many races where he's in the lead and not even on the screen or being talked about. It's always the chosen ones. Screw that. Keep doing what you do, Ryan.

[timechanger]

Same with Indy rc as now. People out of the playoffs sending it every chance they got. Spun a few playoff guys and nothing happened with any of them. Sad

[jamesjannell]

Man he is so on. But Blaney still in a good points place.

[RichieWilliams]

Ryan is right. Funny thing is the dudes who are running nascar want the stupid stuff back in the pack. They want pandemonium because they aren’t racers. They’re businessmen who think crashes and craziness are going to make tiktok influencers Chad and Becky magically become nascar fans.

Road courses used to be a display of an uncommon skill in NASCAR. Nowadays they are just 3 boring hours of spaced out single file "racing" followed by a "mysterious" caution to bunch them all up for a "dramatic finish" with cars getting plowed, wrecked, or spun out all over the race track. That is EXACTLY why NASCAR chose the Roval for an elimination race.

A lot of these guys need to learn how to race in general. It's frustrating to watch when so many guys aren't capable of going side-by-side.

[wesleyem]

I flew all the way out from Arizona because the first 4 races were fantastic. Only to end up with the absolute worst race of the season. Boring first 90% of the race, part failures galore and terrible racing at the end of it all.

[v-vr-rotatev-vy_vx]

Yep, Harvick clearly punted Almindinger off the track track to take away his win

[vernonworth]

Everyone wants to win. What do you want? For everyone to pull over and stop for a playoff driver?Quit complaining be a driver. GO RACE
