Seems Currey's transmission is out. What a gut-punch. #Bristol #NASCAR #NASCARonFS1

Man. Brutal end to a promising night for @BayleyCurrey. Says "the transmission is blown the f*ck up" after falling back on the restart. "I think the gear might've broke, if I'm being honest [...] I saw sparks and it bounced off the chip."

Huge bummer for @BayleyCurrey, who was having a career run tonight before that restart issue. #Bristol #NASCAR #NASCARonFS1

Such an unfortunately timed rain delay. That 4+ truck battle for the lead was HEATED! #Bristol #NASCAR

I wish I could add to all the memories being shared about Jon. Truth is, I never had the pleasure of meeting him in my days at the track. I regret that immensely. My heart goes out to the entire @TeamHendrick family and Jon's own family and friends. We've lost an industry giant.

I don’t know what happened with Larson yet, but this should dispel one explanation. Great catch by @AR_Analytics

Auto Racing Analytics @AR_Analytics

For those saying Bubba Wallace intentionally wrecked Kyle Larson. Data shows that Larson hit the brakes right before contact with Wallace. The previous lap Larson didn't use brake there. Blue is current lap, yellow is previous https://t.co/8ZeMYFwct4

Brutal timing for the caution, brutal pit stop for Blaney. That race was 100% in the bag for the 12, and they cough up three spots on pit road. You just can't have that. #NASCAR #DarlingtonRaceway #Darlington #NASCARthrowback

Right now @WilliamByron is auditioning for a second career as a pace car driver. He led every single lap of the first two stages. #NASCAR #DarlingtonRaceway #Darlington #NASCARThrowback #WilliamByron

This graphic is absolutely outrageous. How #BubbaWallace could be so bold as to include Jimmie Johnson over Jeff Gordon is beyond me. Unbelievable! #NASCAR

RT @Jonathan_Fjeld: In the wake of the disastrous NASCAR Xfinity Series race yesterday and how clean the NextGen era has been at Martinsvil…

Do I fault Sammy Smith for last night? Absolutely. He already admitted it all. But the larger point I hope doesn’t get lost is that we WILL have more of these with wins incentivized the way they are. No amount of culture change will outweigh the necessity of winning at all costs.

He’s not…entirely wrong. The racing tonight was disgraceful, much of it Sammy’s, but look what this format asks of these drivers. It incentives reprehensible racing. #NASCAR #Martinsville #XfinitySeries

Sammy Smith: "I'm not proud of that but you absolutely have do do that."

Not to mention this square-peg-in-a-round-hole format has drivers consistently willing to make an ass of themselves for a win. If you liked tonight’s racing, the championship format will likely give you more of the same. #NASCAR #Martinsville #XfinitySeries

I’ve never much resonated with the ‘kids have no respect’ gripe, but tonight I get it. Multiple drivers who appeared out of thin air at NASCAR’s highest level racing like they’ve never had to foot a bill in their life. #NASCAR #Martinsville #XfinitySeries

It’s #OpeningDay! Go @yankees!

Kyle Busch's wheel and tire bailed separately! Completely bizarre. #NASCAR #LasVegasMotorSpeedway

Is it legal for a car to receive service in a teammate's stall? I remember the 24/48 crews swapping about 16 yrs ago but can never remember this happening. #NASCAR #LasVegasMotorSpeedway

Issues for the No. 20 - he has a left front issue and stopped in Briscoe's box. The No. 19 team tightened the left front for them. Crew chief Adam Stevens says "guys, look at me here. I wanna talk to you on digital (radio)" to his pit crew. Calls the save "a game changer."
