The debate surrounding NASCAR’s playoff format may be the hottest topic in the proverbial garage area, and one NASCAR personality certainly stirred up social media with his take on the championship on Sunday. 

Mamba Smith, a reporter for Bleacher Report, TNT and truTV’s coverage of NASCAR, offered his opinion on the definition of NASCAR’s championship on Sunday, and it certainly had fans riled up. 

“The point isn’t to crown the best driver…It’s to crown the best team who executed the best when the pressure was at its highest and the lights were the brightest,” Smith said in a social media post.Â
