Three car drag race finish. Doesn’t get anymore exciting than that.

Re: 2024 NASCAR
Caught the last few laps from the final restart live, you could tell Busch was 3rd but I thought Blaney might have had it.
Moves Suarez equal with Ambrose and Montoya with 2 cup wins, the most by an international driver. He still needs 2 more Xfinity wins to equal Ambrose 5 but he does have a truck win that Ambrose never achieved.
Unreal to think there have only ever been 6 international drivers to win a Cup race, Ambrose, Montoya Canadiian Earl Ross Mario Andretti who the records class as Italian but most would class as American, then Suarez and SVG who are both currently racing.
I dont think it will be the last race won by a international driver this year, Saurez certainly has the ability to add to his total and I will be very surprised if SVG doesnt take at least one Xfinity race maybe even an oval win given his results after 2 starts, he then has 7 confirmed cup starts including Chicago where he won last year.
Looks like I will miss watching the next Xfinity race live as well. I am keen to follow SBG progress but time differences mean it will be a 1am start down under.

Re: 2024 NASCAR
Funny but here in Casa Grande the local cable does not have NASCAR on it.
I watched with "Dish Anywhere" on my laptop which I then projected onto the TV.
I have my Hopper plugged in at home and I can access it to watch anything I have
at home including the recordings.
Amazing!
I will be watching this afternoon you can bet.

Re: 2024 NASCAR
That's another thing about the old Nascar, they used to tell us the winnings listed for all the drivers. I believe they also gave us the attendance figures as well. But not no more.
