Upsetting to all Brad Keselowski fans
This is nothing but upsetting, and disgusting.

lol Nascar just dont want someone to take the Chasers out-I really think Keso doesnt give a you know what anyways haha. Nascar was probably just concerned he would dump Hamlin again like in the NNS race-I say keep driving like you are Brad-take no prisoners!

This happens every year to some driver. Nothing to frett over. Drivers are going to drive like they want to no matter what anybody says.

I think the Hamlin thing, was just late in the race, and wanted to win. The car he drove that day, won 2 times. (Dover and Iowa).

Well it's just another kick in the pants for NASCAR fans..
It is just another way for NASCAR to keep their "Top teams" at the top.
Add it to the top 35 rule, the phantom cautions, the inability for NASCAR to follow the rules that they themselves make.

If there was an all fire conspiracy for NASCAR to keep the top teams at the top, then several of the top 12 wouldnt be there...Heck Dale Jr WOULD be in the chase, etc etc....don't get me wrong I get as frustrated as anyone else with stuff that happens from time to time during the race, but to suggest a conspiracy is a bit out there.
It has been NASCAR policy since the 1st chase to remind other drivers not to take out a chase driver. Take into consideration the Hamlin / Keselowski had bubbled over into the press before the weekend and I don't see the big deal in reminding him of the big picture. Next year he has a full time ride and his chance to make the chase. That's a lot more important then what he was doing at Kansas last weekend.
And I won't dignify the Robby Gordon remark with a response.
This was and is not an attempt to anger anyone just to express my opinion. Not a slam/slight/dig/flame/etc etc etc

lol you sound like everyone of those conspiracy theorists that call into Wind Tunnel ha. Thats your choice though ha. I do believe the phantom cautions-but thats good for the show-they should just call them competition cautions and get it over with. The other stuff-ehh not so much-JMO.

What? Do you dispute the fact that NASCAR doesn't have consistency in when/how they throw caution flags?
Or you don't agree that NASCAR tells some drivers to not race so hard but let other drivers away with flat-out running over other cars?
I have seen both instances many times over the years.
And the fact that I said NASCAR wants to keep its Top teams at the top is well proven by the top 35 rule.
Sure NASCAR can't prevent misfortune, so it won't be perfect, but putting that rule in, in the first place was just plain stupid, and it has done nothing to prevent what NASCAR said it was supposed to...that is/was to keep high end sponsor's cars in the limelight to keep their sponsorship. Many sponsors have left anyway, even some that have been locked in since the inception of the rule.
And I am not getting mad/angry/don't feel slighted, just trying to show my point of view, and try to figure out why I see it one way and others see it totally differently.
