Almirola's been fastest in practice. Will that translate to race conditions?


P.S.: There's still time to join the fantasy league. It's quite easy to play.

Good to see Jeff Gordon starting in the third position. Hopefully his car will hold up on Sunday.

It's time for him to win. I've been waiting over a year.

Even though he was a lap down and not contending for the race lead, Dale Earnhardt Jr. just drove below the double yellow line, wrecked Brian Vickers on purpose, and caused the big crash that took out a quarter of the field. "Good job."

I haven't seen the replay yet but they interviewed Earnhardt and he claimed Vickers pushed him into the grass

Vickers blocked Earnhardt when he was coming up from behind to pass. Rather than slow up, Dale Jr. drove below the double yellow line (supposedly out of bounds), then he was so mad that he turned into the corner of Vickers' car and wrecked him in front of the whole field. This looked very similar to what Leffler did in the NASCAR Nationwide race on Saturday, for which he received a 5-lap penalty. Dale Jr., however, is bigger than NASCAR, so they decided not to penalize him. :roll:
