.
....
The incident began when Larson attempted a three-wide pass — Kevin Harvick in the middle dropped out of the bunch — and Larson slid up the track against Wallace.

When Wallace didn’t lift to give Larson any room, Larson used his Chevrolet to .......shove...... Wallace’s Toyota into the wall.

/\
No bias there eh ?
No ‘ allegedly” ?
No. Shoved.
How does a car ‘ shove’ ?

Pukes.

/\

.....Wallace then bounced back down the track, followed Larson’s car down to the apron and ........appeared ......to deliberately hook him in retaliation.

\/

” Appeared” ?
No. Obviously.

Pukes.

\/

NASCAR said it will review the incident, which included what ........appeared........ to be Wallace pushing an official,

/\

Spit. I saw it. No appeared about it. He pushed multiple nascar officials .

ESPN and NASCAR can kiss my a**.

Want to lose fans ?
This is how you lose fans.

Just imagine the several hour pit stops as the cars recharge.

They already killed nascar, imho.

I say mandate EV racecars immediately so that no one can deny the reality and kill 2 birds with one stone. Besides: The crash fires will be highly entertaining.

Time to spawn a new, non-woke racing league.

Larson was on Wallace’s inside and his car drifted up the track. Wallace’s car hit the wall and then went left and hit the right rear of Larson’s car. That crashed both of them and also collected playoff driver Christopher Bell

Longer video here. See: Kyle Larson, Bubba Wallace make contact, cause wreck at Las Vegas

This video clearly shows that Larson's car never touched Blubba's. Blubba got skeered, drove into the wall, then intentionally wrecked Larson.

One of the gases emitted by a lithium battery fire is hydrogen fluoride. (HF)

Hydrogen fluoride is highly corrosive and a powerful contact poison. Exposure requires immediate medical attention. It can cause blindness by rapid destruction of the corneas. Breathing in hydrogen fluoride at high levels or in combination with skin contact can cause death from an irregular heartbeat or from pulmonary edema (fluid buildup in the lungs).

Hydrogen fluoride is an extremely dangerous gas, forming corrosive and penetrating hydrofluoric acid upon contact with moisture.

So, when the FD attempts to extinguish the battery fire with water, they're producing hydrofluoric acid in large quantities.

HF is a bone seeker, it loves calcium so much so that the steals calcium from the nerves, so you don't even feel a burn until it gets to the bones. Then with all that extra calcium you REALLY feel it!

People have died from a burn no bigger that the palm of a hand.

The heart doesn't beat very well when the nerves are calcium depleted.

That’s what I saw...NO CONTACT until Bubba purposefully rammed the back quarter panel of Kyle.

He [Wallace] should made him kneel and kiss his ass. He [Larson] would not have hesitated to do so. One of the reasons I stopped following NASCAR.

“The crash fires will be highly entertaining.”

Especially if it’s raining and a car has a compromised battery compartment. What spectators are left may get souvenirs after the huge assplosion.

It’s a shame ol’ Bubba didn’t do this to Jimmy Spencer. Spencer would have cleaned his clock and it would have been glorious to watch.

I still don't KNOW that Kyle touched Bubba. All the replays looked like there was still air between them. Bubba definitely overcorrected and hit the wall, but then got mad and PURPOSEFULLY max out his engine to catch and take-out Kyle.

I agree. I don't think Kyle touched Bubba. And turning your car into a weapon at 160+ MPH is inexcusable, but -- as you said -- Bubba will likely get a pass.

And I'm sure part of Kyle's reaction (or lack thereof) on the grass has a lot to do with the history between the two. If I remember right Kyle almost lost his ride for good when he said the "N" word while in a virtual race with Bubba a few years back, so I'm sure he's careful about anything he does around that idiot.

First I must make note that blubba Wallace came up the nutscar ladder using the nutscar Diversity Program to get up to the Cup level of nutscar and when he hit a roadblock of sorts. I personally think that is why noosegate happened. It was a way to climb that last 1/2 rung of the ladder. He came out of noosegate smelling like a rose. 23XI Racing Team was created by Denny Hamlin and Michael Jordan as a Team to coddle blubba up that last 1/2 ladder rung. 23XI Racing Team has Leased/Purchased it’s Cars, Engines, Equipment, Crew, Physical Training and Playbook from Joe Gibbs Racing aka JGR. One of the top teams in nutscar. This is a Silver Platter Buffet laid right in front of blubba for the taking and he should not need for anything, EXCEPT for him to apply Morals and Responsibility to what has been provided for him.
So far I don’t see blubba doing the right things with all that has been given to him...

I need to define a few terms I’m using in this Post:
1) nutscar standards is an open ended cluster fork as we all know.
2) race, in lower case type will refer to racisism.
3) Race, in the upper case will refer to Racing.
4) Racing Incident will refer to an unintended contact between 2 or more cars.
5) Pit Maneuver is when the vehicle behind puts the right front corner of the car into the left rear of the leading vehicle and nudges into it making the leading vehicle spin out.

OK let’s take a closer look at this situation and compare it to the usual nutscar standards.

During Sunday’s nutscar Cup Race on Lap 14 of Stage 2 in Turn 4 there was a Racing Incident involving the 5 car of Kyle Larson and the 45 car of blubba Walace that went from an Anthill into Mt. Vesuvius for no reason other than the race card being played. The incident collected the 20 car of Christopher Bell (a Driver still in the Playoff BS) ultimately knocking Bell out of the Race. Also putting Bell’s car backwards into the wall. Very similar impact to other wrecks that have sidelined Kurt Busch and Alex Bowman with Concussions that may be Career ending.

Note: blubba had already lead like 23 Laps in this Race. Had he kept his feces compacted there was a possibility of leading more Laps and possibly getting another Win...

After the initial contact of the incident which was the result of the 5 car going low and the 45 going high, splitting to get past the 4 car resulting in the 5 car drifting up into the 45 with minimal contact between the two cars and the 45 car getting into the wall with the right front. (We’ve all seen the same thing hundreds of times before over the years/decades.) Here is where/when Blubba turned a Race Incident into a race incedent after coming off the wall and then turning hard left and accelerating till blubba caught up with Kyle’s car and pulled a reverse Pit Maneuver that was a few notches above the usual nudge that starts the spin. This took the 5 and the 45 back up the Track into oncoming Traffic where they both slid to a stop. Blubba then exited his car (against the standard rule of dropping the window net as a signal to Track Safety and Rescue Teams that the driver is OK and then the driver is supposed to stay in the car until the Safety/Rescue Team arrives at the scene using the Safety Trucks to block any incoming Race Traffic to secure the scene.) blubba then started walking down track towards Larson’s stopped car, Helmet, HANS Device and Gloves off at a brisk heavy walk with a bad attitude look on his face and mouthing off on the way.

Meanwhile Larson, standing by his car is removing his Safety Gear and talking to the Safety Worker while waiting for the Ambulance as Drivers are required to visit the Infield Care Center. Larson turns around to blubba approaching while still mouthing off and making gestures and drops his Safety Gear and then proceeds to start swinging and punching Larson who is blocking and trying to evade blubba’s Attack as a NUTSCAR Official tries to get blubba calmed down. They finally get him into the Ambulance and off to the Infield Care Center.

At the Infield Care Center blubba is the first one released and continues his race card crap during the interview still blaming Larson for the entire eruption of Mt. Blubbasuvius and even telling the Reporter to stop “fishing” while he continues to blame Larson for everything. Larson comes out of the Care Center and apologizes for His part of the situation and makes it clear blubba in effect took himself out of the Race.

In My opinion blubba played his race card with the Noosegate fiasco at Talledega by creating a big scene, dragging 15 fibbe’s and the A$$m€dia into a big too-doo about a garage door pull rope that had been the same for years. Even managing to get the Queen of Formula 1, Hammy the butt boy to make a race simpathy call and start a we race as one kerfluffle with knees being taken and all.

So let’s do a comparison here of disciplinary action(s) taken or not by nutscar.

Kyle Busch pulled the same basic stunt in Texas during a nutscar Truck Race on Friday November 5th 2011 by intentionally crashing into the back of Ron Hornaday who was in contention for the Championship while under a Caution, spinning Hornaday into the wall and putting him out of the Race. Busch’s action was in retaliation for contact earlier in the Race while battling for second place. On Saturday nutscar announced that Busch was suspended for the rest of the weekend forcing him to miss the Busch and Cup Races. Also JGR and Major Sponsors for Busch are in discussions about continued sponsorship.
Now blubba does basically the same thing and it takes nutscar several days to decide that blubba will only miss this weeks Race at Miami-Homestead.

IMO blubba should be parked for the remainder of the Season, Fined $50,000 and sent to an Anger Management Course. But nutscar will never do that because they are afraid of the racist backlash if they do so.
