2008 Daytona 500 Finish

[AaronRichard1]

love the Seinfeld reference. "Hello Newman."

[LostHighwayFilms]

if Tony had stayed on the outside line he would've won if not been in contention....

[constantdewdrinker88]

That was Tony and Dale's race

[miamihurricanes471]

@constantdewdrinker88 isnt it always for Jr. im not even a fan but in the last 5 years he and jeff gordon get screwed or dumped

[Anarchist86ed]

@miamihurricanes471 27 more days till it happens again.

[143Bubb]

@constantdewdrinker88 Agreed........ Stupid Casey Mears. Living off his families name.

[anthonystuart69]

been watching all these old 500 finishes tonight....it's even more painful than i thought it would be as a stewart fan ;_;

[nascarnut18]

Roy McCauley takes a leave of absence to be with his sick wife and wins the Daytona 500 the next year. Good things happen to good people.

[MondenSports2]

if that caution hadnt come out i think dale jr, or tony stewart would have won this

[bresher]

@MondenSports2 ya I wanted Stewart to win but congrats to Newman

[JeffGordon221]

Well, both are big pieces of crap, but 09 is still better.

[bubbjr]

let me tell you something thats american muscle that beat the imports again lol

[LostHighwayFilms]

hello great good times, com'on!! PEDAL BABY, PEDAL!!!

i love darrel waltrip!!

[DRZREALEST]

stewart or his spotter are idiots..... it was his! i wanted to kill his spotter....

[stinngs120]

at that exact time i was playin nascar 09 i was usn 12 car and i won it was weird

[JeffGordon221]

@stinngs120 Don't you mean 08? 09 wasn't out yet.

[stinngs120]

@JeffGordon221 ya thy both kinda look the same

[anthonystuart69]

@stinngs120 why couldn't you have used the 20? ;_;

[stinngs120]

@anthonystuart69 i remember i was gunna get the 24 but the 20 21 and 24 were takin

[24nitroboy24]

[ChevyCamaro33]

casey mears' block wrecked him, and it prevented jr from winning. Him and Stewart had a huge run and were heading to the front.

[skatering42]

tony is a dumbass he had the race won but went to the bottem lane....

[XxPunk1995xX]

and thought kryle busch would push him..... DUMBASS!!!

[ur2ndurlast]

6:58 Was the winning move & Tony Should have done the same but glad he didn't GO NEWMAN!! 39 HELLO NEWMAN

[Curtisexplorer]

"TOYOTA DRAG RACE" SHUT THE FUCK UP DARREL.......... toyota sucks!

[flinkpoyd311]

ugghh...if Tony stays up on the high line in front of Newman, he probably wins that race. but instead he pulls down to get some help from his teammate cuz they had talked about a plan they had...once again he gets screwed trying to work with a "teammate" at Daytona...I guess the only way he's ever gonna win a 500 is to be selfish

[143Bubb]

@flinkpoyd311 No doubt!!!!

[TheDaniel2448]

One off the best Daytona 500's ever have to feel bad for Tony Stewart however yet again so close to winning the 500 and it goes away in a heartbeat

[trainboy32]

yep casey mears or ryan newman will win but i wont bet against allmendinger or sorenson after reutimann and brad keslowski to name a few driver who got their first win this year

[bmh297]

wow it is so nice to finally see my favorite driver kurt busch to acually compete with the top name drivers

[CASEYMEARS5]

I CANT WAIT TILL COKE ZERO 400 09 WOOOO

[dtr2racerVLR18]

THIS RACE GIVES ME CHILLS IM A HUGE NEWMAN FAN. HES HAD TERRIBLE LUCK SO FAR IN 09 BUT ITL CHANGE. cya in victory lane newman

[bandman232]

Actually he's doing well now.

[xXStupidHurtsXx]

Im a Kahne fan, but i like to see newman do good! He is doing great now, competing for the win quite often.

[msnbc87]

I am suprized that they did not show the pace car until after Mike Joy mentioned that he was going to point out the pace car as he explaned that lights were out atop the pace car

[tagi15]

Best 500 I've been to, until he wins his next one.

GO NEWMAN!!

[TheeeeeJ]

too bad the 09 500 didnt have a finish like this. oh wait, it didnt have a finish at all.

[JBK353]

Casey Mears to me isn't that good of a NASCAR driver I don't think stock cars are fit for him

[trainboy32]

newman and kurt arent racing together on the same team anymore

[munchkinthecat]

I wish Tony won

[bandman232]

Thoght he dad it. Half a lap to go.

[nascar0105]

7 days till the 51st daytona 500

[bmh297]

Kurt is a great driver...just havent had that many good cars the past couple of years and not much good luck...goodluck to newman and kurt in 09

[Big12SEC]

wow newman goes out wins the sports biggest race and then he gets told he wont be back? crazy i wish newman the best in 2009 at stewart hass racing with the 39 us army chevy

[xXSATCHM0Xx]

i thought he chose to leave

[onci2]

he wanted to leave...they didn't fired him

[Big12SEC]

You were right onci2 my fault about that

[24Tributer]

lol i forgot about reed sorenson; i thought he was back in the 20s

[RSnerd34]

omg i love it when he says PEDAL BABY PEDAL

[amped882008]

come on padna. push me padna

[amped882008]

lol 0:00-0:04 speech

[dirtymoposse8815]

lmao indeed.

[amburnett2448]

Uh... Jeff Gordon has never cried because he lost a race. He gets pissed when his luck runs out just like every driver. Drivers hate finishing second or worse when they have a chance at winning or when something goes wrong. stupid.

[nascarfanatic24]

Jeff Gorson's awesome, and way better than crying after a loss. He's having bad luck this year. This is a race he should've won. This, the 400, Las Vegas, Martinsville, I could go on.

[74duster86]

that must have damaged alot of chevy ego.

[amped882008]

jr would have won if the caution didn't happen

[Joenad]

I agree they were moving fast. I dont know what Casey was thinking.

[Mobstaz101]

Tony was close but Kurt bush pushed Ryan Newman up to the lead

[2007Johnson]

Ha Ha!!! Kyle Busch and Tony Stewart Lost!!!

[NASCARWWEclubpenguin]

Shut up! your teasing toyota already.

[MattProtrains]

This was not a pleasing finish for me, if it had been a Photo finish, with Kurt in the lead then Newman went beside and took the win in a side by side finish, it would have been better.

I'm Sorry but I felt Jr should've won, poor Mears wrecked with 6 to go.

Alas, If I had to pick a Penske, It would be Newman.

[cctitansfan]

NEWMAN 4 LIFE

[madisondanton]

cellebration time come on!

[BEJAN92]

larry and dw ARE SO COOL

[BEJAN92]

all jr had to do was to get 4 tires and hes gonna have to MAKE A WIDE hello newman hello newman

[asman9]

PEDAL BABY PEDAL!!! I love NASCAR on FOX

[BEJAN92]

PEDAL BABY PEDAL MAN good job for ryan newman dw is so funny

[llama62]

I'm so pissed that Casey Mears crashed. He's my favorite driver besides Jeff Gordon

[markaltis1993]

jeff gordon had the strongest chevy at that race, to bad he wanst there for the finish

[llama62]

Stupid suspension or crap

[Trains13]

what a race i was there!

[BEJAN92]

ME TO

[blackraptor97]

hes go to make it wide

[hiroshi021]

Poor Dale Jr. went with the wrong car at the end of this race. If he went with someone else and knew that car went below the yellow line and had to hold back, he probably would have finished much higher.

[laceygirl218]

pedal baby, pedal.  awesome.

[darvader4]

what a gay win for ryan nueman stewart should've won!!! and my guy kyle bush should've finished 2nd

[amburnett2448]

You don't even know how to spell "Busch." You probably know nothing about NASCAR. I was there. I was pissed when Jeff has the suspension failure, but I am glad for Ryan Newman anf the Penske organization!

[darvader4]

ok first i spelled busch wrong because i was pissed that day too its not like idk anything maybe u went there because ur a selfcentered bitch how like motor hendrix which sux and u no what so far this year i haven't seen jeff gordon win 1 race at all he sux and u know it so fuck off u bitch

[amburnett2448]

Well, first, again, it is spelled Hendrick Motorsports or Hendrick's. Not Hendrix. I am fine as long as Jeff is in the top 12 in points until the chase. Thank you.

[darvader4]

anyway u probably went their because ur a self centered bitch how likes jeff gordon and everyone in the crowd hates him. jeff gordon is a fucking crybaby who crys whenever he loses and when they want to interview him he goes to his trailer locks it and crys all day. so if u don't think i don't know anything about nascar u should look at urself u don't know anything about nascar no wonder u choose a guy who crys just because he looks good wow im sick of u bitches all jeff gordon will go to hell

[amburnett2448]

Actually, I know Kyle Busch personally. He is a great guy. I will be with him before the Coke Zero 400 next week. I designed a helmet for him in 2007, got to meet him before the Budweiser Shootout this year, and will be seeing him again this week.

[Cody41393]

No my good sir, that would be Kyle Busch who wines like a bitch and knocks cars out of the way when he doesn't get his way. Gordon hardly does any of that. I doubt your source on that statement is reliable...

[samlevesque129]

♥

[miles24fig]

they didn't show the debris on the first caution

[tondawg1994]

BS BS BS

[hondobruce]

does anyone have video of the debri on the first caution,or is nascar fixed?

[m140m]

Jeff Burton really got screwed on the last restart.

[jonathan28link]

Ryan Newman sucks

[NASCARINCANADA24]

HAHAHAHA who ever watched it live saw him circle her boob XD

[skunk8me]

Yeah huge win for Dodge, but what about Penski, he loves this event like none other.... well done Penski team

[mustlovecars30]

Huge win for Dodge... Kurt has to be commended, Stewart must of been in shock as the boys went past

[amburnett2448]

He was in shock. Listen to his interview.

[mattedbird]

and did i see Kurt prevent 2 big ones he was brilliant

[mattedbird]

Where the hell did Kurt come from? That was just as much a victory for him as Newman. You think he waved to stewart on the way by? Talk about gettin the last laugh! Your awesome KURT!!!!

[pooploops2345]

i loved this race because all the talk was chevy vs. toyota hendricks vs. gibbs and im glad no favorites won the race we need different winners. and my driver reed sorenson finished 5th.

[jaqua524]

i was happy for ryan, even though i am not to fond of stewart, i did feel bad for him.

[ernest1218]

Who would ever thought a darkhorse like Ryan Newman would win the 50th Daytona 500?

[tibetguru]

Very close!! my darkhorse was kurt bush and Greg Biffle

[daytona300]

i dont like newman but i was happy to see some one other then kurt or kyle bush win,great driving ryan newman

[crbassassin]

Smoke got SMOKED!

[zarubaconst]

Congrats Rocket Man!

[TyVulpine]

Today, Feb 18, 2008 is the 7th anniversary of the greatest driver in NASCAR history's passing... RIP Dale, we miss you!

[GuinnessDrinker69]

Yea Penske..... #2 And #12!!!!!!!!!!!

[fearthehawksndcavs24]

i know they're trying to win and driving their collective asses off, but i think they can drive smart without crashing 3 times in the last 10 laps or whatever it was.

[Guason15]

At least the toyotas didn't win.

But it was the worst Daytona 500 in years..

[ExtraFlyer300]

I know, thank god they didn't win, how would that have sounded....Congrats on a japanese car winning the 50th all-american race

[RedzDevilz]

What's wrong with the Japanese?

[ExtraFlyer300]

everything....It profits Japan, not the country we live in. Its bad enough that people buy imports. if u own a jap car, congrats you support our enemy in WW2...and it breaks me when i see a jap car with a proud to be an american sticker? how about supporting us too u ignorant jerk

[RedzDevilz]

Does it hurt that foreign cars are more dependable than the American pieces of shit? Our WW2 enemy? We live in the 21st century now bud that was 60-70 years ago.

[ExtraFlyer300]

Sorry, you cant trust everything you read in a magazine...domestic cars are just as dependable and i guess you have to be smart to get what i'm saying, you sound like the guy that would buy a car made by Taliban just because it got a higher MPG than ford, but yur not smart enough to realize the money u payed is now going to fund them instead of support the US economy...

[RedzDevilz]

The Camry is more American than the Canadian built Charger, the Canadian built Impala, and the Mexican Ford Fusion. Two of the above are built using mechanicals from foreign makes, whether the old Mercedes E-Class platform for the Charger or the Mazda 6 platform for the Fusion... one's a Japanese Ford and the other is a German Dodge.

[ExtraFlyer300]

wow ur dumb, thats not the point...yeah parts come from other places but it still benefits the american economy instead of if you bought a camry the cash goes to some guy in japan so he can spend money in japan, where if you bought domestic, the money stays in the US. also, the workers here in the US dont lose their jobs whow ork on assembling the cars, but foriegn cars are assembled here too but if people didnt buy the foriegn cars, that plant could be a domestic car assembly plant

[RedzDevilz]

We can start talking about domestic content but the Japanese and Germans and Koreans are expanding their manufacturing into the U.S., they're sourcing more domestic parts, building more plants to build parts for the U.S. market and abroad, and even are domestically engineering product specifically for our market (i.e. the Tundra and Sequoia). In the meantime, the Big Three are continuing to outsource U.S.

[RedzDevilz]

(continued) labor to try to undercut their substantial losses due to corporate mismanagement and squandering the enormous lead they had in the 1970's.

[RedzDevilz]

Moral of the story... I'm happy for Toyota's entry and hope they do well. Toyota's increase in U.S. manufacturing is putting more American's to work. Regardless of where the parent company revenues go, it's all a bunch of executives. Yet in the end, what's more important is that the American workforce has a place to work.

[RedzDevilz]

Any other rationale for hating on foreign automakers is pure and utter bigotry and zealotry by the uneducated and ignorant. Do some research and you'll learn quite a bit.

[ExtraFlyer300]

true, but u said yourself that the american workforce is most important which i agree with 110% and foreign plants are in america giving americans jobs but say people understood what im talking about and bought domestic instead of import....then that may be a chrysler plant instead so then it would be a win-win situation. To be honest, I blame the media for making people think imports are more reliable because they say things they are paid to say which then influences peoples decisions.

[DeadUlysses70]

toyota is the only brand actualy manufactured in the U. S. of A., isnt it?

[jimmiejohnsonfan148]

You're right. The For Fusion is built in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, The Charger is built in Brampton, Ontario, and The Impala is built in Oshawa, Ontario.

[nascardoofis]

two thumbs way up

[beastie20]

Why? Because Toyota led over 60% of the laps? Because of the new CoT? Because you can't stand change?

[Guason15]

Because I like him better driving a Chevy!

Toyota is all about money, not skills and work.

[gunit5565]

I would have liked to see tony win, even at the end when they interviewd him he really seemd disipointed

[fearthehawksndcavs24]

i don't want him to end up like earnhardt at the 500

[racermac1988]

Toyota dominates, Hendrick has troubles and the winner is... Ryan Newman??? Didn't see that coming! Good job Ryan.

[deering1134]

Damn Stewart Had it but good 4 Newman

[tibetguru]

good for newman he deserved it remember lowes bank of america 500 last lap

[tibetguru]

I watch all 2007 entire season any singe lap and the best part of the season is before the chase Jeff Gordon is the 2007 champion!!

[tibetguru]

I dont think all nascar is fixed but they spend 50 years working hard for the sport dodge ford or chevy deserved to win not a toyota

[tibetguru]

OK Its the daytona 500 Do you realy think that nascar allow toyota win the 50 aniversary Idont think so!! its clear.. tony just let go by him

[Joenad]

so tibet whats your statement? are you claiming nascar is fixed?

[Joenad]

if you are, your an idiot.

[Airbusfan11695]

GO NEWMAN

[combatking08]

2 years is along wait for Ryan. He is very good racecar driver and got it done. I'm a Smoke fan but good for Ryan.

[KEJohnson72]

2007's finish was better, but this years winner is awesome. ryan newman is one of my favorite drivers. miles24fig, newman won the 500. how in the hell does he suck. joenad won that arguement because all you could say was fuck you.

[jamie1111111111111]

Miles24fig, i think your just jelous that jeff gordon didn't win. i'll admit, im a gordon fan but stop bitching about it.

[djv2448]

Ya seriously I Like gordon to But I Think Ryan was a good choice to win it

[vinny0906]

KURT BUSCH SAVES THE DAY FROM TOYOTA

[miles24fig]

Hey Joenad fuck you

[Joenad]

lol that mature miles. i guess you cant handle the truth can ya you little prick?

[day500champ08]

to paraphrase Michael Waltrip. How much does 1 for 125 sound for Penske?

[Djswiff00]

Tony had a chance to win it wen junior gave him that push but stupid casey mears had to cut in front to cause a caution...other than that how do u guys think junior did and any predictions for this year

[Joenad]

wow that was randomly stupid. the guy wins the daytona 500 and that makes him suck? how old are you 12? grow up. deal with it.

[BurnRubberDaily]

Lets see you make that move in that stockcar

[riguyugir0]

WHYYYYYYY!!! I'm a Tony Stewart fan, and I bet if he hadn't gone low, he would have wone it. sooo angery!

[Joenad]

took awhile for the race to pick up. Good for newman though.

[23662360]

the push jurt gave ryan reminds me of the push kenseth gave harvick in 2007

[2000boxter]

Best race finish I've seen in years,,good for dodge,Pensky,Newman,and especialy bush he was way back and came back to push Newman to victory.

[Shaswata]

pah 2007 was way way way better!!

[boilerboy4]

Congratulations to Ryan on the win! THE BOILER NATION IS ELATED for Ryan winning the race. However, I feel bad for Smoke but he will get his in due time just like Dale Sr. did!

[Shaswata]

what's the Boiler Nation?

[JunBugJP3]

Shaswata-Ryan Newman is a graduate from Purdue

What a finish, Newman deserved it he hasn't won since 05', and I killed every1 in my fantasy league, I had the whole top-5

[BigMike4488]

its 4:30 and i just got back from this damn race. was in Weatherly Tower. Busch and Stewart were strong all day. If they would have worked together they would have finished 1-2 without question.

[Cbizzl]

HELLZ YEAH Newman! and a big ata boy to Kurt Busch,Smoke and Kyle take notes.DODGE DOMINATION, 6 of the top 10. MOPAR OR NO CAR!!

[IamTheShermanator]

congrats to newman. very happy for him to win.

[Hihey9989]

Bowyer could've won if it weren't for that damn Montoya!!!

Congrats to Newman, though. He deserves it :D

[tyleristoxxic]

Jeff could of won it but that suspension.

I think the JGR cars should of won.

Congratz to both Penske cars tho.

[joshviper129]

poor old jeff, but ryan did good

[beastie20]

Stewart/Ky Busch truly deserved it.

Newman/Ku Busch just lucked out, just like Mike Joy said, circumstances dictate the outcome and its what happened. Newman got the push and opening on the backstretch.

Congrats to Penske.

[Gabelcat]

I feel bad for Smoke...

[yankeehater42]

Good you stupid prick. Your favorite driver SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

[Joenad]

why does tony suck? because he has an idividual min yankeehater42? dont be retarded. i dont like tony but you dont see me running around saying he sucks.

[Guason15]

I used to like him, but now I can't stand watching him drive that japanese crap!

[RedzDevilz]

Ignorant you are.

[Guason15]

Are you Yoda?

[XxNOTINGxELSEXX]

The Rocket Man wins the Daytona500

yeahh!!

too bad for Gordon

but hey at least Stewart didn't win

[Alexander032691]

I was just so pissed off that Jeff Gordon had that problem in that race, right when I first saw that live I just went crazy, but I just hope that he wins the Auto Club 500 next week, because I'm going to that race!

[good24]

I so sad because jeff gordon had a problem. hopefully at california he will do better.

[LinkMan20]

Tony almost had it. He has came close many times before, but this was the closest so far. Tony will win the Daytona 500 in 2009.

GO SMOKE! TAKE THE 2008 CUP!

[Randildo]

and b4 people start, the mears accident wasnt smokes fault, that was a racin deal. lol.

[Randildo]

i hate it for jeff. i hate it for smoke too, that sucks, thats the best shot hes had, but you know congrats to Newman, and its nice to see a Dodge win at Daytona!

[jamie1111111111111]

congrats to newman. he deserved it.
