\u201cI switched to Basketball.\u201d<\/p>\n
Pit stops are a major part of NASCAR racing. However, when there\u2019s too many of them, maybe some attention is lost from the viewer.<\/p>\n
TV networks are rarely on a commercial break during pit stops. Likely, that comes from fans demanding to see the pit stops to begin with.<\/p>\n
We might have an issue in some situations. A caution in the Cup race on lap 77 ended the stage. They didn\u2019t go back under green until lap 96. 19 straight laps under caution isn\u2019t good.<\/p>\n
But, there are alternatives\u2026<\/p>\n
Denny Hamlin comments on NASCAR caution lengths<\/p>\n
\u201cApparently, FOX, they need to see the pit stops,\u201d Denny Hamlin stated via Actions Detrimental. <\/p>\n
\u201cUnder caution, we\u2019re going to commercial. Then, they open pit road. It\u2019s a reset, we gotta line up. I couldn\u2019t believe it. It was so long.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCan we get a side-by-side for the pit stops maybe? Or when you come back from your commercials, just give a recap?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re running too long under caution.\u201d<\/p>\n
The race Hamlin was speaking of saw 14 cautions for a total of 96 yellow flag laps.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a single-car wreck, there\u2019s not debris on the track, there\u2019s no clean-up to be had, and it\u2019s just yellow, yellow, yellow. I\u2019m like, \u2018Choose already,\u2019\u201d Hamlin said.<\/p>\n
Denny Hamlin is looking for an apology from NASCAR Channel 90 after lawsuit settlement<\/a><\/p>\n Dale Earnhardt Jr comments<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t really have a problem with the length of cautions in a general part of the race where it\u2019s a natural yellow,\u201d Dale Earnhardt Jr added. <\/p>\n \u201cMy problem is the length of the stage-break caution. NASCAR isn\u2019t going to get rid of stage cautions.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cPocono\u2019s a great example. They eat into 20% of the stage, with the caution. The stage breaks are manufactured cautions. They shouldn\u2019t eat into the remaining part of the race.\u201d<\/p>\n Dale Earnhardt Jr predicts a surge in the cost of NASCAR charters<\/a><\/p>\n Links<\/p>\n Denny Hamlin<\/a> | NASCAR<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cI switched to Basketball.\u201d Pit stops are a major part of NASCAR racing.
