Don't feel bad. I was in the bathroom and my wife tuned into FS-1 for a minute while watching the Detroit Tigers game and said "the race is on and Martin's in 2nd place!". They had her fooled also.
It still doesn't top Fox Sports and Fox News not knowing that I think last year or the year before not realizing that they were replaying a race from the year before after a rain-out then Fox News announced that Jimmie Johnson won the race 2 years in a row!

The Kentucky race. Just another NASCAR blooper or a direct action to change the outcome of a race????
They would NEVER attempt to manipulate a race, no, not our beloved NASCAR.
If NASCAR survives Brian France, it will be VERY, VERY lucky.

The BEST answer I have heard in a while!!
Red flag at the Glen, 5 laps to go, Truex starts third behind Logano & Hamlin:
Announcer-"Martin, what's your strategy on this restart?"
Truex-"Strategy? I'm hoping the 11 pinballs the 22 off the track & I can win!"
CLASSIC - LOL!!

Mr. Robin, this post is not against you my friend, I am just voicing my opinion.
Yes, Kevin Harvick's pit crew made some mistakes, that is all Kyle Petty could talk about. BUT Harvick had the opportunity after that to catch and pass Martin, he was only a couple of car lengths from him after the last restart. Also, Harvicks pit crew did not make him hit the wall, in my opinion, that is what cost him the race. None of the cars drive as well after a hit like that.
Yet it is funny, Petty did not say much, if anything last week at Michigan when Truex's pit crew made mistakes when he was leading and cost him the race.
Petty needs to stick with the facts, not his holy opinion.

I agree Charles, how would you like to be on the " Kevin Team " after his comments after the race!! So much for a team effort. As for the media it seems that the only time you really hear about Martin is when he wins. The media seems to mostly talk about the "big Money" teams. Go Martin!!
