I didn't have time to read all the responses - but my F1 fans (the few watching) said, Bowyer knocked out my boy...They were talking about oversteer - understeer LMAO
Gotta love them with their F1 terminology. They watch NASCAR for the giggles |
LMAOThey didn't talk about Kyle chasing Bowyer past the field under caution, trying to retaliate, while his radio was blaring, "Stop, Kyle. Kyle! Kyle! Stop!"
|
Can't help but think all those guys who pitted are gonna eat up the ones who did not. Cluster****, incoming.

Never mind. 48 checks out.

chefsos, Did something happen in the cars corners? |
Good Job Jimmie!
Congratulations! |

Oh well, Bowyer apologized to Kyle during the post race interview.
Things happen. |
Yeah, what he said is pretty much what I saw. Kyle had a little piece of fender outside him, and the spotter said, "clear." (Assuming FOX had the audio and video synched up here) He wasn't. Pounded Kyle into the wall good.
That chase down the front straight was funny, though. |
Quote:
I was curious why they used the terms oversteer and understeer describing the crash between Bowyer and Kyle. Oversteer and understeer are the way a car corners. However, NASCAR doesn't use that terminology. It sounded like it was a racing deal after listening to Bowyer describe the crash. |

Tell 'em, "tight" and "loose". I remember Buddy Baker once described the difference: "When you are tight, you see the wreck." |
Thanks, chefsos!
I appreciate you taking the extra time to answer my question. Love the Buddy Baker reference. |

I like watching, but never know when they're on. I think David Hobbs would be a great person to meet at a pub somewhere. It's worth watching an entire broadcast just to hear him say "he's done blowed up." TIA Dinny |

If I understand correctly, you are interested in watching Formula 1 races live in the United States on NBC Sports Network? I prefer to watch the races live - Therefore, the races begin in the middle of the night in the U.S. on Sundays. Some races begin early morning - depending on the host country. Formula 1 races all over the world. This year, Formula 1 is scheduled to race in Texas...NASCAR is upset that Formula 1 will compete for viewers at the same time as NASCAR's race in the U.S. |

I will DVR the things if I know they are coming up. I prefer setting the DVR to the alarm clock. Dorsey Schroeder is another of my favorite announcers. He sat in singing with a band I was working with one night. He is someone with interesting stories to tell. Dinny |

It is time for Hamilton to realize that he is the pilot of a German Formula One racing team and teammate Rosberg's nationality is German. |
I would love to see a F1 race, but I would never pass up a Cup race to see one in Texas. Went to the spring race this year at TMS. Rained out on Sunday and didn't go Monday. But it first time ever that a NASCAR track gave a chance to those on Sunday who couldn't make it the next day, can redeem those tickets to any race at TMS of their choice. Very classy move by TMS for sure. So now I have 3 tickets to the Nov. Cup race at TMS.
F1 has always wanted to be a regular player in the US market. I'm sure I'll have more chances to catch an F1 race |

Dylan does her homework.

I'm still laughing at Jamie McMurray's car falling into a pothole at Dover International Speedway.
I wonder .... Do you wonder if Dover paid Chip Ganassi and Felix Sabates for their destroyed race car? According to FOX Sports, "including the engine, a race-ready Nextel Cup car costs about $125,000 to build." I swear .... Only in NASCAR could something like that happen! http://msn.foxsports.com/nascar/stor...Cost-of-Racing |

According to BBC, Hamilton can do no wrong. However, everything he does is wrong - He is so jealous of his teammate. I guess it is a British / German thing... LMAO What is crazy, they were both friends growing up. I will watch both races on computer and TV. |
Go Jeff!!!!

is that toilet paper stuck on the grill of the car - or a hot dog wrapper?

WTH happened crash involving??? |
Quote:

Something happened between Rosberg & Hamilton on the first turn --- I missed it.
Rosberg is leading - Hamilton dropped back because of something he tried to do to Rosberg on the first turn - I think it caused Ferrari to crash ... Dirty bastard Be back, got to go find out. Here's a live streaming link to F1 if interested: http://www.frombar.com/20140603/vv53...60-832288.html |
OMG Ambrose hits Jimmie on pit lane
there is too much going on... what is happening with my Yankees? Could one of the haters please let me know? LMAO |
JJ got the worst of that. Knowing his luck it will help his aerodynamics~
|
Smacked.....
|
Got to love the 4-5 wide on the restarts
And it is know or never for Hamilton... Oh Lord, Rosberg almost had a meltdown & cuts the corner. F1 could have penalized him - He gained 4/10 sec...Hope he doesn't have to give it back. Edit: Damn it - F1 is investigating it |
This might get chippy. I think the JJ is mad...

OMG... Both Mercedes cars are having mechanical problems at the same time.
Engineers can make adjustments to the cars back at home base...The engineers just said that they can't fix it. Oh hell, Hamilton passed Rosberg. And Rosberg takes the lead back. Smoke coming out of the back rear of Hamilton's car.......... Hamilton is OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think Hamilton's brakes are gone...Game over for HAMILTON!!! Buh bye... Oh, Lord - Does Rosberg have the same problem??? Two DNF's for Merc? Rosberg still leads Wow F1 India (Perez) can win! He's a excellent racer |
Merc engineers back in the U.K. fixes Rosberg's brakes - They told him that his car is okay. While Hamilton DNF... I have never heard that happen before - two teammates having a problem with their cars at the exact same time. |
He has two wins but Harvick is tucking snake bit. He could easily have three more wins and a few more top 5s~
|
back to NASCAR for the restart
|
Ricciardo just won it in Canadia.

Quote:
|
OMG High speed crash between Massa & Perez...Yikes that was ugly - think it was Perez's fault - he was having trouble with his brakes or Massa had too much speed coming into the turn.
Daniel Ricciardo is a Grand Prix winner! 24 year old young VERY talented driver overtakes Rosberg for the win and beats out (again) 4 time F1 champ teammate Vettel. Vettel comes in 3rd (and almost wiped out) Ricciardo's first win in Grand Prix...How sweet! |
Quote:
Look at Ricciardo's big smile... So happy for him - He's now (finally) a F1 winner! (F1 fans love him) Prestigious Canadian Formula 1 track for your first win. Edit: (NASCAR) What happened, #5 hit the wall? |
Tuning in late: I'm sure someone else has noticed that the TNT/NBC/whatever announcing crew is terrible. FOX had some dumb****s for sure, but these guys are sleep-inducing.

So happy for the young and talented, Ricciardo. He's been there all season...Pretty amazing to outpace your 4x F1 champion teammate, Sebastian Vettel. F1 is very exiting to watch!!! |
Junior is leading with 3 laps to go!
I missed the entire race... |
JUNIOR
|
I picked Dale to take Pocano, woo hoo.
|
#88 Winner winner chicken dinner.
|
If the 2 let the 88 by just to try to wipe that paper off the grille, it seems he waited too long to do it. I'll bet his water temps were pegged by that time and he was losing some power.
|
At least it was HMS in the winners circle, AND a Chevy...

Rosberg's just the latest schoolmate to look at Lewis funny. |
Junior wins Pocono 400!
Congrats, mlyonsd - and to all #88 fans |
Quote:
Ferrari's Fernando Alonso's contract is up at the end of the season. Dieter Zetsche, CEO of Mercedes said to the media, Alonso was maybe the best driver in F1. This is Hamilton's first year with Mercedes and he has pulled the same mind games with former teammates Alonso and Jenson Button. Merc renewed Rosberg's contract last week - Odd man out could be Hamilton. Now, all Merc wants is to win a championship - I will post links to the articles. |
That's how HMS motors do. Way to go Junior and the HMS engine shop!! All day long you could see the difference between the Hendrick powered cars on the straightaways. That was very impressive to watch all day. Bowties rule!!
Damn I'm really gonna miss Steve next year. Right when Junior finds a crew chief that gets his talent out of him he's leaving, but I respect him and the reason he is doing it. |
Welcome to the 2 win club Jr~
|
I'm waiting for Hamilton to cry about Mercedes using voodoo to fix Rosberg's car, after his broke.
