Now will NASCAR penalize the only black driver for high speed on track retaliation... Highly doubtful.

Did he care that took out a team mate thats in the playoffs ... nope!
My thought, exactly.

Whatever the penalty, I agree that Wallace gets sent to the Group W bench or no one does.

Taking out Bell was certainly not his intention, but nevertheless, this incident shows how much impact (sorry) a stupid move can make. Gibbs Racing is not going to leave this at nothing.

Take this under consideration: Cole Custer was fined $100,000 for slowing down helping Chase Briscoe advance at Charlotte. His crew chief also fined the same 100 G's and the team lost 50 points. So no wreck, no fight, but 200K and 50 points for influencing the outcome.

I see some big fines and suspension coming by Tuesday.

Bubba been hanging around Denny too long! He'll be fined and probably points taken away, like it matters, but thatll be it.

2 Drivers out with head injuries from wrecks ... now we will get to see how serious NASCAR really takes safety.

I'm sure (behind closed) doors Toyota will give Wallace an elementary math lesson.

You took out 1 Chevrolet, by taking out 2 Toyotas, one being one out of only 2 in the playoffs.

The on-track stuff aside, Should Wallace have to take sensitivity training for bullying an Asian?

Predictable responses from the usual suspects.

Bubba screwed up. No doubt. But he’s not the first, or the last, to pull the same stunt. Sure Bubba gets penalties, as he should. But don’t act like this is the first time something like this has happened.

Bell’s crew chief said it wasn’t a problem for him. They’re still flying home together.

I thought y’all wanted drivers to show emotion. I guess just not the black guy.

I dont care what color he is, taking out another competitor at near wide open speeds is cause for discipline.

Speaking of predictable responses from the usual suspects..

I don't see anyone acting like this is the first time something like this happened, but now that you brought it up... when was the last time someone purposely wrecked another guy at speed ? Matt Kenseth laying in wait for Keselowski on a short track ?

I don't think shoving an official or walking across the track while cars are running is the type of emotion that anyone wants to see
