On lap 195, disaster struck Dale Earnhardt Jr‘s driver Justin Allgaier, who at the time had a massive lead, separating him from the rest of the pack by almost three seconds. But bad luck ran into him with just five laps to the checkered flag.

Blowing a flat tire, the #7 Chevy of Allgaier went straight for the barrier, crashing into it, ticking off an avalanche that collected multiple cars. Fans were dumbfounded to see the Xfinity Series veteran go out in such a fashion. But what got their blood boiling was the carelessness of the Fox presenter. Taking things to social media, fans ripped Jamie Little into shreds after her absent-mindedness led to a blatant error on live television.

Viewers left scratching their heads after erroneous slip up

The 2024 season has already seen fans venting their frustration for NASCAR’s broadcast partner, Fox, on multiple occasions. While they already have an infamous reputation for cutting to advertisements at inappropriate times, skipping major race moments, and the persistent usage of dull camera angles, things took a turn for the worse on Saturday when Jamie Little called the shots from the booth.

Already shocked and stunned by Allgaier’s late lap disaster, Little’s slip-up topped the list with fans seeing red after the presenter congratulated the #7 driver, saying, “Congratualtions Justin Allgaier,” who crashed out to finish the race 29th.

Seeing such negligence on live TV, fans couldn’t let it go and did not hesitate to speak their minds. They quickly took things to ‘X’, sharing snippets from the actual telecast and letting their opinions fly.

“She’s horrible. Respectfully,” wrote one fan reacting to the error. 

Another couldn’t hold back from stating how things have been with Fox, commenting, “I dont understand how fox is just oblivious to how bad their broadcast are.” The unapologetic fan criticism did not stop there as another user wrote, “how do you mess up the stats, make horrible cartoon animations and the name of the winner;”

Other fans also criticized the broadcaster for her way of commentating. “It’s crazy cuz she’s so delayed when calling things live. And when it’s something wild, she has no emotion,” read a tweet. One even went as far as taking a dig at how the journalist was perhaps not paying enough attention. “Sleepy Jamie,” they wrote.
