They should have parked him for what he did. Bowyer wasn't the only victim of his negligence. If it had been anybody but Gordon, Johnson, or Jr. who'd caused the wreck, they'd be sitting at Homestead.

Nascar is a JOKE. Kyle Busch wrecks a contender, has to sit all 3 series and is suspended. Golden boy Gordon gets virtually nothing. NASCAR is run by a bunch fools.

What would have happened if Bowyer had been killed or badly injured, manslaughter? nascar might have actually had to suspend for a race then.

It's all staged. Like reality TV. It's all staged to get people talking about Nascar at the watercooler. Ha. See. It worked! They are just trying to get some ratings for the last race of the season coming up.

cindale - could not agree more. Gee - they took away enough point to send him to 11th place when only the top 10 make it. Will he make it back to the top ten? oooooooo the drama. lol. totally staged.
