Danica’s Day: Run-In with Earnhardt Jr. Leaves Her 34th
By Aaron Burns Danica Patrick’s name was all over social media after Saturday night’s Quaker State 400 at Kentucky Speedway, but it wasn’t for all the right reasons. Patrick was enduring a difficult night at Kentucky when someone else’s problem became hers late in the race. Dale Earnhardt Jr., who had won the previous week’s race at Daytona Int’l Speedway, encountered brake issues early in Saturday’s race. After falling back to 30th, he got a run on Patrick entering turn three just as Patrick’s car got loose and slid in front of Earnhardt’s. The result: Earnhardt, struggling to slow down in time,…

Restrictor Plate Racing Is Too Dangerous to Continue
By Jerry Bonkowski Just over two years after Kyle Larson’s car was obliterated and several fans in the Daytona International Speedway stands were injured by flying debris when Larson’s car flew up into the catchfence, it was virtually déjà vu in Sunday’s Coke Zero 400 at DIS. This time, it was Austin Dillon’s car that – just like Larson’s car – lost its front and back ends in a spectacular crash, while the motor wound up several feet away. Thankfully, Dillon was able to walk away without major injury. And just like Larson’s wreck, several fans were injured by flying debris that…
