Daytona JR. Claim Recall With Racing

Autoracing Betting Lines

Vickers is now taking Stewart's advice seriously after Stewart hit him heading into turn 11 on lap 38. It triggered a seven-car pileup, with Dale Earnhardt Jr. among those involved. Earnhardt Jr. suffered a broken radiator and shortly after retired from the race with engine failure.

 

"I've been complaining about the way guys have been racing all year," Stewart said. "I like Brian. I'm not holding it against him at all. I don't care if it was Ryan Newman [Stewart's teammate]. I would have dumped him too. If they want to block, that's what is going to happen to them every time for the rest of my career."

 

"I wasn't blocking him," Vickers said. "That may have been his perception where he was sitting. [Kyle Busch] went off the racetrack in front of me. He was flying through the dirt. He was coming back on the racetrack, and I was trying to avoid him. The cars in front of me were slow, and I was in the inside of the guy in front of me. It's pretty early in the race to worry about blocking someone or wrecking someone."

 

Vickers did retaliated on lap 87.

 

This wasn't just payback, it was road rage. Careful boys, the State of California has stiff penalties for reckless driving.

 

NASCAR has not taken any action against either driver. In other words, officials let Stewart and Vickers have at it.

 

Even though Stewart and Vickers disagreed with each on their lap 38 incident, don't expect them to have the same feelings that Kevin Harvick and Kyle Busch have for each other right now.

 

"The problem is turn 11," said Jeff Gordon, who finished second. "There's two places you can pass on this track, going into [turns] seven and 11. You couldn't really pass going into seven [Sunday]. It was so slick, you had to be so careful. So everybody gets to turn 11. Because you're racing one another, it seems like guys really block the inside lane and force guys to go around the outside lane. So it builds frustration. You get in a position where this is your only shot for that entire lap to try to make a pass.

 

"Either somebody gets aggressive and drives in there too hard, makes contact, or they just get frustrated and start using the bumper. It's hard to say. But it was pretty crazy from where I was sitting. I know that."

 

Seven Sprint Cup Series regulars are entered in the Nationwide event at Daytona. Dale Earnhardt Jr. is not one of them. Earnhardt Jr. won at Daytona one year ago.

 

The July 2010 race at Daytona marked the debut of the new Nationwide car. Earnhardt Jr. drove the No.3 Wrangler Chevrolet, the number and paint scheme made famous by his father.

 

"I always have the confidence when I get in one of [Kevin Harvick Inc.'s] cars that I'm in just as competitive a car as I could be with any other organization out there," Stewart said. "They're first class, and that's the kind of group that you want to be with when you do a one-off race like this. You have that confidence, and you don't worry about anything."

 

"It's awesome to be able to go to Daytona [this] week with the points lead and have all this momentum on our side," Sorenson said.
