| NASCAR Just Cost Sadler a Win/Possible Championship
So in today the NNS Indy debut, Kyle Busch jumped the restart on lap one, NASCAR didn't black flag the #54. Fast forward to the restart with 20 laps to go. Brad K and Elliott Sadler are 1/2 and coming to the green. Brad spins his tires/doesn't get going and the 2 of Sadler gets a HUGE push from his team mate Austin Dillon. Sadler gets to the lead and NASCAR black flags him.
Now tell me what was different one lap one and with 20 to go that caused Sadler to get penalized but not Kyle? NASCAR shouldn't have black flagged the #2 if they didn't do it to the #54. Not to mention Elliott was running for something far more valuable in the win, a 100k bonus, and extending his points lead. Now with this BS call he drops him down to 2nd in the points and may just cost him the championship.
Gotta love NASCAR, the most inconsistent and worst sanctioning body in all of sports.  |

Gotta love NASCAR, the most inconsistent and worst sanctioning body in all of sports. | I guess you have not been watching F1.
Red Bull has been found in breach of the rules twice this year, with no penalty!

I honestly don't think full time cup drivers should even be allowed to race in those races. I guess they allow them to boost attendance, and tv viewership. | |

NASCAR makes more money letting the big boys race in the little league | |
