They are so dumb. Look at the ratings. They start declining the year after they changed the points to this chase crap. It continued to decline then had a level off till they changed to stage junk with whatever they have now with eliminations and and win and in stuff. I'm not really sure how it is now but I know it's not working.
All they have to do is change it to a full season of points, bonus points only for a win and most laps led. That makes the best driver of the year the champion. Taking away the years consistency is what ruined it. Resetting points is the dumbest thing they can do with a close second being stage racing. Bonus points for being a leader at a point in the race where it doesn't matter at all is goofy. I guess I'm still not watching NASCAR for about the 6th year in a row. RIP.
I grew up on a race track, it really boggles my mind how much I don't care about it anymore, but I really want to.
I think this was the best compromise. I think the way they stagger the points once the chase starts is fair. And all 16 drivers will have a fair opportunity to go win a championship and nobody can just get hot for a couple of weeks and be a champion. Definitely will be more invested in this coming season from a fan standpoint.
Sheriff's deputies are investigating an alleged break-in and theft last week at the North Carolina home of retired NASCAR driver Greg Biffle, one of seven people who died in a plane crash last month.
