What the ****?

Biffle did not win.  Bowyer won.  Hell, you know how you know Bowyer one?  Jeff Gordon said he did.  Now, Gordon is ahead of Bowyer in points (P2 to Bowyer's P3), and his teammate is P1...and had Bowyer been credited with the win, Bowyer would be ahead of Gordon in points and maybe ahead of Johnson.  So Gordon is arguing a ruling even though it'd work out to his disadvantage.

I don't get it.  Biffle did not maintain the pace.  What if Biffle blew a tire, crashed, and crossed the line backwards in P4?  Then would he have been the winner, too?  What the hell is this?  NASCAR a legitimate sanction?  You mean, just randomly saying "Hell, the fourth place guy won"?  Making up the rules as you go?  Creating controversy just so pictures of your cars and sponsors are in the newspaper?  Is it that you don't want Clint Bowyer to be the champion when you could have perfect personality-less whiner Jimmie Johnson so beautifully represent your sport?  Or Jeff Gordon, one of the few drivers left that deserves respect?  But god forbid the Kansas kid with a bit of an edge win, right?  And god forbid Jack Daniel's hard liquor be advertised.  No, no.  The car with the duck on it should win, cuz then the kiddies will be like "DUCKIE YAY" and now you've won the future generation, right, NASCAR?  Won their money, right?  Don't want alcohol sponsors to win, right?  Don't want to sell merchandise that advertises alcohol?  So the kiddies can't buy toy cars, right?  Yeah, I get it.

**** you Jim Hunter.  **** your Brian France.  **** your pretend sanctioning body up the a##.

Hell, I'm adding the extra points to the totals, and I'll tell you who the real champion is.  You b#####ds screwed Clint Bowyer out of 20 points is what you did, and screwed him out of the points lead.

Not saying I agree with it but....
Can't pass on a yellow and as NASCAR officials said... Biffle was moving at a "reasonable" speed... (which in their mind must mean...not stopped)

But I can see other drivers' dissatifacation with the decision.

Agreed. Inbred hick is to be reserved for an elite few of us over here. For example, the peope from Northern Missouri/Southern Iowa, which unfortunately includes me.
" I never think I can hurt myself, not seriously. If you believe it can happen to you, how can you do this job? If your never over eight-tenths, or whatever, because your thinking about a shunt, your not going as quick as you can. And if your not doing that, your not a racing driver. Some guys in Formula 1... well, to me, they're not racing drivers. They drive racing cars, that's all. They're doing half a job. And in that case, I wonder why they do it at all..."

It was quite questionable.

I think one can argue this:

If Biffle was maintaining a reasonable pace, then by passing him, Bowyer, Johnson, and Mears illegally passed under the yellows, so therefore, they should receive a penalty.  However, they did not, so therefore Biffle's pace was not reasonable.

My pride never falters. I love watching each and every Australian sportsperson play unless there name is either Shane Warne, Layton Hewitt or Greg Norman. A world survey done afew years ago said that Australia is one of the most patriotic nations on the planet and is even more patriotic than Germany in 1940. But unlike Germany we dont like invading anyone we just like beating anyone and everyone on the sporting field. Especially if they are English  :D
