If Carl is suspended for his blatant wrecking of Brad, how many races will it be for? I say he'll be suspended for 2 races.

I will bet he gets nothing.........Edwards is a punk with major emotional problems, or is he possibly suffering from roid rage? I don't know, but to listen to the fox broadcasters today talk about how the first incident was Keslowskis fault tells you something, even after replaying it over and over where you can clearly see Edwards came down on Brad who was holding his line and Edwards himself said he expected Brad to let him in. I haven't liked Edwards since he came unhooked on Kenseth for not being more supportive.

That was blatant, and NASCAR knew it. He SHOULD be set down for 5 races. I am guessing NASCAR does not have the balls to do it.

If they really want to make a statement, they should sit him out for the rest of the season.

Keselowski is quickly making a lot enemies. I'm surprised this didn't happen sooner.

As far as missed races, I say none. They're even now.

NONE!

I am not a Carl Edwards fan, but when you take a young, aggressive, punky driver like Braaaad, let him run people over out there, now we're suuposed to dole out justice when someone pays him back? Especially after the racing series went out of their way to say the boys can "mix it up" out there?

Sorry to see the 12 car take a flip, but that was a freak reaction to the contact. I'm glad nobody got hurt.

But, it's a racing deal and he got what was coming to him. End of story.

agree with you Stripes 17. The driver of the 12 car has drove over his head for many races and had it coming,Yea he flipped over but that dang wing caused that, not what 99 did to him.To me it look like a typical Saturday night dirt track wreck with feuding racers,and yes nascar said they are going to let them mix it up so the 99 did just that and now everyone wants to throw him under the bus .

I'm 50/50 on IF he gets suspended or not. If he does I think it will be two races.

Now SHOULD he be suspended? I think yes. It's one thing to spin someone at Bristol or Martinsville. Atlanta at 200mph is not the place to turn someone. That wing caused Brad's flip but Carl still should not have turned him. The way that car flipped it could have seriously injured Brad or some fans. I like Carl but in this case he is wrong.
