>Implying anyone has the attention span to understand that description of how the stage system works

So they added TdF style intermediate sprints to the race?
Intredasting.

what happened to the F1 style?

>>74292118

Toyota's figured out a way to make sure they get as much TV time as possible without stepping out of their boundaries and doing something unethical like paying for TV/PR. It helps a ton that Michael Waltrip is a natural-born shill for anyone who's ever sponsored him since 2001.

Everywhere but plate tracks. It's a shit show with group quals at tracks like this with everyone trying to get in the back of a draft.

Fan favorite Joey Logano!

It'll be Brad or Joey, both looked the best in practice yesterday.

Reminder:
The pole will go to either

Dale Jr

Daniel Suarez

Kurt Busch

>>74292134

It's funny because I would be fine with heat racing and I would be fine with regular racing. Stage racing is just some intermediate cancer dreamt up by Brian France.

The Daytona 500 pole can't be rigged because

>Similar engine packages qualify similarly
>Even if they did rig the pole for PR/Ratings purposes, it hasn't worked
>Good luck rigging 2015

I'm looking forward to the meme shit if either of these three scenarios happen, though

None of the chevys have looked particularly fast all week so I doubt jr gets it

>Fewest entries ever for the Daytona 500

I know that they decreased the field to 40 because "muh shrinking entry lists" and "muh value of a charter" but they really should just let them all race given how meaningless the 150s will be.

More than one round, it will this round set pole?

How many plate races until NASCAR repeals their stupid new pit rules? It's only going to take 1 big one early in a race for them to realize they don't want to lose Danica and a dozen other cars to a wreck 15 laps into the race.
