Rick Allen is a lot like Allen Bestwick. Just listening to him is exciting as he's got a great voice for calling play-by-play and he's knowledgeable. The announcers of this race are heads and shoulders above ESPN's current lineup.

i remembered that when i was watching today...until i re-watched this i thought i lost my mind. Nascar ruling at dega sux...last lap crash there should be no caution (spring race) and NOW this!
No, that's not illegal at all. That strictly a NASCAR rule. Brian Scott didn't use the apron because Brian Scott wasn't going for the win now was he? The announces know just as much if not more than what the NASCAR officials do, because they've been in this sport just as long as most of them have. Regan Smith even stated that in EVERY drivers meeting, they say 2 things. 1, forcing somebody below the yellow line is ILLEGAL, which Stewart did. 2, the apron is in boundaries on the last lap.
what? your saying that brian didnt use the apron to pass because he wasnt going for the win, even though you say its perfectly legal to do so? either you're a dumbass or brian scott is?
The only reason they gave the win to stewart is so they wouldn't have to listen to his fatass cry about it for a month, what smith did was totally legall, if that was dale jr making that move then nothing would've been said.
Tony stewart is one the greatest and most respectful and respected Nascar drivers to date, so you watch what you say about these drivers. What happened at talledega in 08 was 1 year ago, get over it, it done.
@k9klaus The NASCAR driver's meeting directly before this race mentioned that passing below the yellow line on the last lap was fair game. Stewart also forced him below the line, which makes passing below the yellow line legal as well. The only reason Smith was penalized was because he's not a NASCAR poster child. The rule is ridiculous in the first place. Ask Carl Edwards what happens when you chop block on the last lap and the guy doesn't budge for you. I'd rather go below it than kill someone
@k9klaus You're an idiot. NASCAR even admitted themselves that they told drivers passing below the yellow line was perfectly fine on the last lap of the race during the drivers meeting beforehand. And their bullshit "no passing below the yellow line" rule is going to bite them on the ass hard when someone goes flying into the grandstands and kills 20 spectators thanks to their stupidity.
@k9klaus NASCAR told the drivers before the race that they could pass below the yellow line on the last lap, everyone admitted it even NASCAR admitted it but they still didn't credit Regan with the win. Wanna stop making yourself look stupid?
I called Bodine winning at the restart! and I think Nascar should do this for all the races that have a last lap crash. just as long as it isnt the way of the finish..
@nascarfanatic24 They can be like this every week if they'd FINALLY make dirty air into a suction effect like the past (and like here at Talladega) instead of the wall it is almost everywhere.
@STP43FAN1 Yeah. There's parts of the new style of plate track racing I'm both fond and not so fond of. I like how they can hook up, do speeds about 200 mph, and every corner's a nail biter, but at the same time, the chance of a big one is less likely, and it takes out the "Every man for himself" thing.
@nascarfanatic2425 The new style of plate racing with the 2-car superdrafts does indeed have huge advantages and also elements that are bad - team racing, the 2nd car obstinately refusing to fight the leader once they get into a lead, drivers racing to swap instead of to fight. If they can eliminate the negatives and get back the positives of the old pack style, they've got racing perfection - they had that in 2010 as well as in this race.
@nascarfanatic2425 No disagreement there - watch the 2011 Truck race at Daytona - those bumpers don't quite line up and they tried superdrafting and it worked, albiet not as radically as with the COTs.
@STP43FAN1 Yeah, the bumpers don't quite line up on the trucks, but they do come pretty damn close. I guess that's why they didn't make the TOT (Truck of Tomorrow). lol But seriously, the trucks are great to have.
todd is a good driver

robby317 3 years ago
It is perfectly legal to do so, and Brian Scott could have easily used the apron to advance his position. He didn't take the opportunity.
