Was Darlington Not Ready? Poor Preparation Causes Havoc in the Inaugural NASCAR Race

Yesterday, Darlington witness the grand return of the NASCAR race. However, it was affected by some bizarre issues as a loose banner fell on the track and tangled on Danny Hamlin’s car.

Warning comes out at lap 154 as wreckage from one of the advertisement banners got caught on Tyler Reddick. It was originally caught on Denny Hamlin, but he was able to get it off with help from Clint Bowyer, though it, unfortunately, flew off and landed on Reddick’s car.

Multiple fans had a very fuming reaction to the incident. One user on Reddit says, “Can someone explain to me the rule about debris regarding that ad peeling off and sticking to cars? I just don’t understand how drivers can get screwed by a shitty advertisement sticking to their grill completely out of their control and lose multiple positions. And It seems unfair to lose spots because of that.”. In addition one user said, “Really no excuses for it not to be painted – it’s Darlington. Cars are gonna hit the wall.”

Darlington NASCAR Race Highlight

After two long, horrid months without live, genuine NASCAR racing have returned. And the activity, at last, returned on Sunday with the Real Heroes 400 at Darlington Raceway. Kevin Harvick commanded like he never left, acquiring the 50th success of his profession. In five races this season, Harvick is the main driver to complete in the best 10 without fail.

Additionally, Alex Bowman, who held an early lead, completed second, trailed by Kurt Busch, Chase Elliot, and Denny Hamlin. Harvick started to lead the pack from Bowman in Stage 3 and never thought back. And he enlarged his focuses lead heading into a compacted plan with four additional races left in May.

However, It wasn’t exactly equivalent to a run of the mill NASCAR race. Fans weren’t shouting from the stands and groups had a constrained measure of staff at the track, yet NASCAR is back.
