      RealRadman well I mean like every else says about the media. It's all blown out of proportion and since racing isn't as fun as what it used to be, they have to bring in a little bit of WWE drama and make things sizzle to get attention.

      Andrew Romanski NASCAR won't care what you say unless you're partnered with them like Monster Energy or even when Sprint was here. It's usually the entitlement sponsor who throws out ideas to NASCAR and they aren't going to go on TH-cam to look for help.

      Have to agree, it is not a zero sum game ... If you enjoy it then it is good. I'm a 50 year old Brit and grew up with F1, but have watched NASCAR for a few decades. I enjoy a lot of motor sports but my favourite is touring cars. I'm also in love with the Isles Of Man TT and hill climbing.
      I think, in general, the problem is down to sponsorship .... It seems to me that there is a big battle in a lot of motor sport between the sponsors that have a lot of money to develop the technology, the fans that want to see close battles and the regulatory bodies that are trying to appease both sides.
      Sorry about that, was a whisky night :)

      I have no idea why FOX would bring F1 into this. If they feel NASCAR is going backwards, why attack a different form of motorsport by essentially saying, "Look. They are way worse than us and are still popular"? It makes them sound petty and desperate.
      I have never heard an F1 pundit mention any other form of motorsport in such a negative way. When the unfortunate incident with the Ferrari crew member happened this season, the general talk was "Do we have too many pit-crew members? Should we use 6-man pit-crews like they do in IndyCar and NASCAR for better safety?" Hell, when the resistance against the halo was at its highest, F1 fans and pundits were praising IndyCar for trying out the glass-windshield concept and having a successful test with it.

      The Smith comment was one of the dumbest comparisons I have ever seen. People love F1 because of the technology of the cars and the iconic teams in Ferarri, Mercedes, etc. They don't really need good racing because of that factor. Nascar has become garbage, not F1.

    It's not the first time that Fox or NBC (to some extent) orchestrated a smeer campaign on who ever poses a threat or criticises the product.

      I don't think NASCAR has a prayer when it comes to stealing F1 fans. I have been trying to get into NASCAR off my own back lately and just can't get into it. Same with the Indy Car Racing. Oval racing along with the length of the races just bores the fuck out of me. I also think you have too many cars and with me not being familiar its very hard to understand what is going on in the middle/back of the pack I prefer drag racing to oval circuits. You have some amazing circuits over there as well, Leguna Seca being one of my favourite tracks in the world

    The Nascar vs F1 lunacy needs to stop. They're two completely different types of motorsport and always have been. The cars can not be more different. Some people are strictly NASCAR fans because they only care for that style of racing. The NASCAR fans that don't like other motorsports, but have given them a complete and honest chance should not be confused with the NASCAR fans that simply dislike other motorsports because they're different. Some people are strictly F1 fans for the same reason, and the same critea applies. However, there are some "racing purests" out there that just love racing and enjoy motorsport for what it is. That's where I, and many others fall.

Don't bash on another series unless you know what the series is about. Regan's comments were uncalled for and disrespectful in my opinion and Nascar was the first racing series I started watching. I've learned to respect, follow and watch other form of motorsports. Regan probably should too.

    I have never been a fan of F1, it never clicked for me but I respect it as an incredibly difficult form of racing that requires an immense amount of talent. I think one of the biggest factors in why people want to bash each other over it is the difference in fans. NASCAR fans are almost completely American compared to F1 which is more worldwide and has a heavy European base. The difference in racing, sports, entertainment, and just overall culture can not be overlooked when talking about this. As for Regan Smith, you're a failed NASCAR driver who's claim to fame is that Dale Jr. hired you for NASCAR's AAA league. Sometimes the truth hurts. Think about it.

    It's stupid to compare them. Compare Indy to F1 perhaps and NASCAR to Aussie V8's but you simply cannot compare tin tops with open wheels, ever.
    I'm in the UK and enjoy all of them, honestly I do and can appreciate the different skill set needed. In NASCAR it's not so much 'skill' as it is 'feel' and guts, the best NASCAR drivers have the ability to feel how long the can hold that line, they have the guts to keep that throttle down further than the car next to them, in F1 it's more about the skill to hit that apex to half an inch every lap, to hit the anchors at the latest and best possible moment every corner.
    What I *really* don't understand is the entire 'fanboy' attitude of irrational hate or defence of their preferred series/driver/team/track/oatmeal/toilet brush......etc.

      NASCAR's race cars are very low on downforce and surprisingly undertired too. The things are heavy and unwieldy (by design) and are driven at the absolute edge of control as that is the fastest way around the track. They are unstable as heck at speed and very prone to oversteer. Spinning another driver out by getting into the back end is definitely considered bad form, but a "bump and run" where the guy in front is nudged and slides up the track (in an oval where there are the large and usually banked corners at each end of the track with room for the poor sap to recover without hitting the wall) is perfectly acceptable. Very different from Formula 1 where the cars have high downforce, a lighter car, and wider tires in relation to the weight of that car. They get loose too, but when they do the cars are so quick to get sideways. I don't care what the talking head feckwits say about either sport, because I love to watch them both!

NASCAR needs to be their own thing instead of trying to compete worldwide. I mean in America, we rarely hear about touring cars, DTM and V8 Supercars. NASCAR needs to remain in America and try to stay away from Formula 1. Not to mention, Indycar has been better than both series anyway.

Hamlin, Busch, Truex and Jones are drivers who try to lead the laps and if anything this year, they been paying more attention to the Fords more than the Toyotas specifically Harvick, Bowyer, Kurt Busch, Joey Logano, Ryan Blaney and Brad Keselowski. Even Kyle Larson they talk a lot about as well because they try to lead every single lap. Chase Elliott really just hangs around in 9th the whole race and sort of seems to settle in. William Byron still has some work to do, but the Chevys are not good this year.

    To quote the great David Land, "the real competition is between Indycar and F1." F1 is more technical, eveeycar is different. The 3 or 4 teams running Renault are leagues apart. Same with the teams running Ferrari engines. NASCAR is closer, the drivers more down to earth, bug f1 was never like that. It was about pushing technology and punching speeds that are ludicrous. Sure that's what NASCAR started as, but it's not anymore. F1 is still what it started as. Arguably f1 is a more pure motor sport. They do have close finishes, Baku 2017 for example. NASCAR has more gimmicks , more same mess, less competition, less of a need to try and push faster speeds. The biggest issue for NASCAR is the fan base.

    The answer to Kenny Wallace's question is that "NASCAR" promotes itself and every single race as an action packed extravaganza. Watch how they promote Bristol this week. Wrecks, fights, bumpin n bangin!! Come raceday none of it will happen. They do this for every race, then add in the playoff hype, Daytona 500, All-star race. Pull back on all the nostalgia, and create some new moments that aren't completely manufactured.

      I've been watching nascar for 15 years, and honestly, Brian France had ruined the sport. The cars 2008 backward were good, but when the COT came out, it started the downward spiral to where it is today. And now, Indycar and F1 are my favorite motorsports. Nascar has fallen so far on my favorites that it's sad. I'm a proud American, but NASCAR has been ruined by the corporate heads of the sport and has chased away so many of the old fans that made it great to begin with.

    NASCAR just needs to fix there problems and leave other series alone. Nascar should have shorter races and maybe a shorter season. Each track one race a year. We don’t need a two hour pre race and also don’t need daily content like NASCAR race hub witch is a joke anyway. Just my opinion!

    The reason that they are both looking for is simple: over here in Europe, F1 is at the top of a kind of racing that we’ve been bought up around. It’s in our blood. Hardly anyone knows what NASCAR is, and it’s very difficult finding a way of watching it here. Over in America, NASCAR sits at the top of a kind of racing you folks have been bought up around. F1 has a tiny, insignificant presence over there and despite many tries, it’s still not broken through. It’s a cultural thing. Two completely different products born out of two very different continents’ history with motor racing. You guys have the NFL and the MLB. We have the Premier League and cricket.
    And you know what? That’s cool. That’s how it should be. I like NASCAR because it’s basically feels like America on wheels. It’s cool seeing a series that identifies with its origins so well (although you can argue that’s been lost over time). I like F1 because it’s a technological marvel and the cars are absolutely mad... and because ever since I was a kid, it was forefront and centre on sports channels and in our media. I’ve grown up with it, through Senna to Schumacher and on from Alonso to Hamilton.
    If they are trying to shine a light on NASCAR by torching F1 then it’s utterly misguided. It’s like me blaming my shitty day at work on David eating a breakfast cereal I probably hate. F1 and NASCAR’s problems don’t relate in any way, shape or form and despite having four wheels and a driver, neither do the two sports as a whole. It’s that difference that should be celebrated, not thrown under some FOX-induced microscope for criticism.

    In fairness, both NASCAR and F1 have gimmicks which should all be done away with. I consider the F1 qualifying format (which has been copied by NASCAR), and the DRS zones as a gimmick. NASCAR is full of gimmicks though, to the point where you can tell that the drivers no longer enjoy it and have been retiring in droves. Double wide restarts, green-white checkers, and segments, have completely eliminated the point of having long races. The elimination chase system eliminated the point of the long season. You no longer earn a NASCAR title by being fast over the course of the longest races, and most grueling schedule in racing, no. You win it by being good on restarts, and really lucky.

    I probably shouldn't say this, but when I was a NASCAR fan about 20-25 years ago, I thought F1 was just a bunch of snooty Europeans, but now I just love it. I've started watching IndyCar because I followed Romain Grosjean over to it. I just can't get into NASCAR anymore. When I followed it, it was a different era. Now all those guys are gone. If they were still racing, I'm sure I would still be watching it. I went to the inaugural NASCAR race at COTA only because it's thirty minutes from my house. I left on the fifteenth lap. It was a bit unpleasant because it was raining, but I would have stayed if it hadn't been so boring. I realize, though, that it was a road course, and with the rain, too, it seemed like they were going so slow. But really, there is no sense in even trying to compare the two. F1 is in a class of it's own. The cars are like no other. I see IndyCar as being more about the drivers, but, as any F1 fan knows, F1 is a constructor's championship. The drivers are there to show off the cars. That's how I see it, anyway. So, I just appreciate each one for what it is, and enjoy them both.

    Please do not take this personal but pretty much anything in the US is artificially overhyped and sensationalistic. Hence US people are exposed and used to this. The media is hyping this as well. Hence everything has to be side by side, three wide all the time with a lot of flips and fights. Hence the freaking stages and playoff moments. Hence the - in general - very short-kept attention span of US racing fans including Regan Smith and Kenny Wallace. It's a spiral downwards. I feel like racing fans IN GENERAL in Europe get more naturally excited about simpler things, the simple pure form of racing and don't need these overhyped, sensationalistic flips and drama racing all the time because they were never exposed to this hype. I love all racing in general. This is just a conclusion when I constantly look at what both fan bases are whining about all the time and NASCAR fans are always whining when they don't see a side by side action battle every 5 laps

      There are those few battles, like the most recent at Texas, if you excuse the aero problems, was a good battle between Harvick and Busch for the led in the closing laps. They weren't even side by side. One good example is from one of @RealRadman s videos explaining NASCAR's problems, where he shows what I believe was the All Star race of 2007 when Matt Kenseth catches Ryan Newman and gets past him without being side by side for 10 laps. It proves that some great driving actually does happen in our sport.

    Body Design:
    F1 - Something you would see from WipeOut/F-Zero/Gundam/Akira.
    Nascar - If Pimp My Ride got a hold of a minivan
    Graphics/Livery
    F1 - Professionally created graphics and decals to highlight what the team is all about.
    Nascar - Gets whatever sticker they can find at the nearest gas station.
    Track/Circuit
    F1 - Takes place in city, a forest, a beach, or a real circuit from the 1960's.
    Nascar - An oversized Walmart Arena.
    Engine/Sound
    F1 - A screaming Banshee that wants to murder you.
    Nascar - A bathroom being used in Taco Bell.
    Racing
    F1 - Risky moves, gambling techniques, life-or-death choice that can result in victory or death.
    Nascar - Go in a circle.
    Pitstop
    F1- In and out, quick and easy.
    Nascar - Ummm...do they know what they're doing?

    What no one understands is that F1 is not supposed to be a "pure" motorsport. The actual fight of F1 is taking part between the seasons. It has been a fight of constructors since it first started out. With the funds available to you, you built the best machine within regulations, then get some top class drivers with skills high enough to control these monster and finish it up with careful calculation and team strategy. The drivers racing is a huge part of it but at the same time thats not the only thing. To win a gp, letalone a championship, everything has to work together. I don't get what's boring to watch about that. I dont need to see overtakes or crashes to know what kind of fight is going on. F1 is more than just a sport, It's an engineers war. Maybe it would have been bigger of a war if the FIA introduced the budget limit, but I think that would have killed the supposed exclusivity of it. It always was the rich man sport. It's time to see more big teams with bigger budgets.

You can speculate, when will somebody make a mistake and lose ground to the other driver. That's why NASCAR Racing was so great in the late 80's to early 2000s. People miss that, people want that aspect of NASCAR back and the Gen6 car isn't providing that

    "Cars and the technology are something we could never dream to drive." Is NASCAR really any better? 100% custom built tube chassis covered in a (surprisingly well developed unlike many people assume, they're not far off GT3 level downforce) racing only bodyshell, powered by engines sharing not one component with anything on the road, and which are simultaneously both assbackwards in general design (Two valves per cylinder? Pushrod actuation? Carburetors?) and ridiculously overengineered in the specifics (revving up to 10k rpm, the materials technology and design + manufacturing of the individual components is insane to make it possible), running on a suspension that's one part 19th century (rear axle mostly) and another part 22nd century (again the individual parts are very high tech). At least I can buy car today that has a hybrid driveline with energy harvesting and even active aero, buying something with technology like in the NASCAR would require buying very old hardware, which in the end wouldn't really be anything like what they run. Heck, where I live, it'd be cheaper to buy a car that's thematically closer to an F1 car than a NASCAR too.
    Lets face it, NASCAR is a 100% purpose built silhouette prototype racing car, running some artificial restrictions on specific areas that ostensibly keep parts of the technology rooted in the early 20th century while actually being pushed to the limit both via design and manufacturing. It's a bespoke tube chassis with bespoke racing only bodywork with a bespoke driveline and suspension, thematically the same thing as a Le Mans prototype, just different in the specifics. It's not a stockcar, not a touring car, not a GT car, not production based, it's pure racing only, 100% purpose built prototype stuff.

    A successful Nascar driver needs instinct to win as you are constantly bumped around. The F1 drivers just needs a more advance car as you are not bumped and simply have to drive faster and learn to brake and corner at the exact time every time.
    Nascar is easy to get into but more difficult to master. You have less control of your vehicle, you are constantly being bumped by wind pressure from the surrounding cars as wells as the cars themselves. That is something you can not train or prepare for until race day. That is what makes Nascar harder than F1. F1 you will need to learn the capabilities of you car (as you have nearly a hundred different options to adjust the speed and handling in real time while racing) as well as the track. These are things you can learn before race day.

    F1 is supposed to be racing at it's highest level. You're given a set of standards and you make the fastest car you can within those standards. It doesn't have to be side by side because it's not based on being equal in what the driver pilots, it's based on which team and manufacturer can create the most elite top-end vehicle and which driver can get the most out of their vehicle via driving line, witts, and luck. Stock car racing was meant to be cars you could buy at the dealer then strip clean and get the most out of, and what made it fun was that you could use your fenders, like battling rush hour traffic on [insert local hated interstate]. I can't quite put my finger on when, but, it just became too different too quickly for me. And, I'm pretty progressive amongst the community. We live in the Central Florida area and are usually more interested in going to the Rolex 24 than we are the 500 these days. The 500 just feels too theme parky to me now-a-days, and that's from someone who prefers the race with an small theme park in it.

    In my opinion, NASCAR only cares about NASCAR, and these NASCAR variety shows (NASCAR Race Hub, any program that only feature NASCAR) is just propaganda machine for NASCAR and no substance like RPM2Night did on ESPN.
    Kenny Wallace comments didn't both me, however F1 venues are much smaller than NASCAR venues. Also, there is more than NASCAR problems then Kenny admits.
    Smith's comments, I lost a-lot of respect for him, and he did no favor in winning over motorsports fans to watch NASCAR.
    In my opinion, Reagan Smith needs to look at the racing on 1.5 mile tracks from 2018, 2008, and 1998, tell me which year had the best racing. NASCAR on track product isn't as great as it was in the 90s and their championship is very gimmiky.
