Busch’s early end, Johnson’s near-crash in NASCAR Cup Series race at Dover
Just before the start of the first race at ‘Monster Mile’, Denny Hamlin’s spotter gave him a piece of advice. “Be smart, race the track all day long,” the spotter for the No. 11 car said over the radio. Hamlin obliged as was proven at the end of the race. The race saw its first caution and exit as soon as the 7th lap.
Kurt Busch’s race came to an end after contact with Erik Jones early on sent him into the wall. “Yeah, we’re done. Unbelievable,” Busch said on the incident. Jones replied to him, saying, “My bad man, sorry.”
Jimmie Johnson had a near-crash with Ryan Preece. He swayed away just in time to avoid what could have been a big incident. The speed at which he was, he could not see Preece. That prompted Johnson to ask his team, “Oh my God, who the **** was that.”
