That Carl Edwards clip always makes me sad because we didn’t know that was going to be his final race. And a couple months later he announces his retirement which was a shock to everyone. Rough way to go out like that.
He didn’t retire, he ragequit. He realized that as long as NASCAR was using the playoffs to effectively rig the championship in favor of whoever they wanted to win, he would never win a Cup Series championship.
@@Trainlover1995 There is no such thing as "Nascar rigging the championship in favor of who they want to win"... We can all agree that the playoff format is beyond atrocious, but don't say stupid bs like that...
If there is one thing that both Dale Earnhardt and Dale Earnhardt Jr. cared about when they raced, it was the safety of their competitors (Ally or Foe). The Intimidator would bump you, or possibly wreck you, but he cared about everyone's safety.
I mean, I really don't think Sr. was like that. There's more than two instances where he's hurt others on the track (i.e. broke DW's ribs twice in a few years by just deleting him) but we can ignore that. Not many people actually knew Dale Earnhardt, so that's what people are going to say. (I have family that worked for him)
@@aaronkristofer18 Depends on the track and the driver. Earnhardt was a true racer, and if you wanted to be a true racer, you took lessons from him because it was to show that you aren't showing all of your true colors, talent, and whether you need to changes to yourself such as using a little bit more of your car than how you usually wheel it.
This is why I love this sport. Yea there’s always differences of opinion and rivalries but to help a teammate or to check on someone after a wreck or congratulating someone on a win when it was good racing that to me is the definition of what makes nascar great
2:52 This is where my faith in humanity is restored. The fact that every person from every crew team ran out to the number 3 car to make sure he was okay. This is why I love sports. There may be differences and rivalries, but nothing can replace a person's life.
Another thing about the Carl Edwards championship clip, Brad Keselowski legit wrecked himself on purpose just to avoid hitting his teammate Logano who was competing for the title.
I hate kyle Busch as a driver, but i respect him as a person because he cares and respects all other drivers. Also Carl Edwards is imo the cleanest and friendliest driver ive seen since mark martin.
@@WarmodeEngaged except him turning brad was the exact same thing Brad did to him at the exact same track, except Carl did a ton of flips where Brad did like half of one
3 things I can reccomend for #2 - 1994 Dale Sr mentioned Senna in his VL interview at Dega. 1993 Sr and Rusty took a polish lap with a 28 and 7 flag out the side of the car. 1994 Dale Sr talked about Neil Bonnett at Rockingham after winning the title
I was getting ready to bring that up. The man literally gave his life holding back the field so his cars could finish 1-2. I was never an Earnhardt fan, but when you think about it...
@@jasonchilton5023 if you haven’t seen EmpLemons video on him titled: “there will never ever be a driver like dale earnhardt”, I highly recommend, not a huge fan of #3, but one hell of a video
The Kyle Busch one makes me really happy cause it shows that he isn't a dueshbag as everyone thinks he is and that he does care about some of his opponents
every generation of drivers has the "bad guy". From Dale to Kurt to Kyle (Yes Kurt was the bad guy at one point) they've all been the antagonists. makes watching races fun tbh because they're good. If kyle is in a fight for the win then it's great watching him lose but also kind of fun watching him win.
Stopping mid race to check on a fellow driver is such a powerful thing to see, I recall Ayrton Senna doing similar, maybe it’s just the sign of a great driver
When Chase high fived Jimmie Johnson, it immediately reminded me of when Steve Park won Rockingham, and Michael Waltrip pulled alongside Steve, and they high fived each other
The one where Dale checks on Rusty and wrecking him into the infield for no reason is a funny one. “Yeah dude, sorry I was upset I lost the lead there and decided to take it out on you for 7th place and almost killed ya, that’s a my bad”.
Watching race drivers help each other out will always be heart warming. Because even tho they will punt the opposition in a wall to win a race, we all know what serious crashes look like
It's the day of the 2020 Nascar Cup Series championship. I took off work to watch the race. But wait. I'm at hooters watching it. Here I am damn near crying seeing Jimmie race his last full time race and Chase win his first championship. I did indeed shed a couple tears
People say Kyle Busch is an asshole when he drives, but that’s just his character. He’s the villain, and he embraces it. If it weren’t for his character, Kyle most likely wouldn’t act like people say he does. I like Kyle Busch, even after Darlington last season.
I've seen the clip of Junior saying oh my God to the big one behind him countless times it has only just occurred to me that it must have been hard to watch that wreck especially with it being the number 3 car
@@n.w.owhoknowstheshadowknow58 i mean it's a very distinct car I'm sure he did not to mention they all have radios pretty easy for a crew chief to let him know who just crashed
You know what I noticed is that catch fence crashes always look super scary but really the fence is just doing its job of ripping up the car to keep it away from the stands while keeping the driver good
I'll tell you what, I like it when one driver helps another out, I like em all. Plus, I'll never forget that Pocono wreck on the back straight away in 2002 when Steve Park, & Dale Earnhardt Jr came together, & Park got the worst of it, & 2015 Daytona July race when Austin Dillon had a great big frightening wreck.
I just wanna say this video is awesome. It's not really spotlighted much these moments. Wish they were. And the rusty Wallace crash was recreated in cars when Dinaco crashes and lightning McQueen hits the brake at the finish line.
I don't get why the minute long double clip was being selfless? How does elliot coming in to pit and losing the race because of it 1. Relate to being turned by Kyle and 2. A selfless act/ acts? I'm not trying to be rude, I just don't know why so I'm curious. If you could help explain I would appreciate it.
The "selflessness" shown was that KB and CE were not on good terms 4 days prior, yet when Chase pits and essentially gives the win away, KB was the first driver there to try to pick his spirits up because it was a crappy situation. That situation was basically, pit for fresh tires and have people behind you stay out, or stay out and have everyone else pit to try to beat you on tires. Either way, he was going to have a hard time at the end there, and his Crew Chief made the wrong call for the situation which is something KB can relate to. It was just a show of sportsmanship and care for another driver that was literally giving you the finger 4 days before that.
would Kyle Larson 2021 kansas spring race count? He was pushing blaney to the lead so they’d both have a chance but ended up “wrecking” them both. Or would that be considered selfish? idk i just thought it fit well
Any suggestions for part 2?
Maybe drivers helping one another. What do you think?

He'd still be racing today if he didn't wreck
