I like how he said “there is over 20 crashes most be a bad season” I think he does not realize there are like 2 or 3 crashes every race
20 crashes is a good season...
@@brendanschuett shit I’ll take 20 crashes before Easter
20 crashes is basically just Bristol and Martinsville XD
20 crashes is all the crashes at talladega in 1 season combined
I mean you have to remember he’s an F1 fan, they’re not allowed to bump there. Cars shred too easily.
2020 was a crazy year and man was the racing and the wrecks crazy too.
Roll on 2021!
@@TheBeesleys99 do you learn about the driver entry lists if so you have to go by the driver's first and last name
14:54 that’s a tire failure. When that happens the car just goes straight and there’s nothing you can do but pray. It’s the most dangerous type of wreck
Yeah seems to be similar to the stuck throttle. Just pray and hope heading into a concrete barrier!
@@TheBeesleys99 it’s basically a slightly less dangerous version of a stuck throttle so yeah you’re spot on there.
Exactly... especially if it happens going low into a turn, which gives the car a chance to turn sharply to the outside and make a near-head-on strike against the retaining barrier. Wrecks into the unfortunate pit-exit and other angles that lead to almost head-on hits at Atlanta and Watkins Glen can be horrific, too. I still remember Steve Grissom backing straight into the pit exit (?) wall at Atlanta and ejecting his fuel sell across the track -- and then getting hit even MORE after that. Miracle he just got a bunged-up ankle out of all that.
back in the day they called it a shotgun, meaning double barrels
one boom was the tire going, the second was the car hitting the wall. the term "oh shit" was used by one driver to judge how bad it was gonna be. if he got it out he was ok, if you only got "oh-" out before you hit the wall it was gonna be a ride
@@HayTatsuko Grissom's wreck wasn't into the pit exit, he hit one of those goofy walls they used to have for track workers to go out onto the track
most of those have been reconfigured
Bristol motor Speedway has Highbanks in los straightaways to make it look like the corners are really tall and Bristol is a short track coach is less than or is a mile
9:48 oh yeah that track is known for being very steep and very short which is what makes it have such close intense racing.
Awesome keen to see some racing on that then! It looked pretty unique!
That 12 that got loose in the second crash is Ryan Blaney. 11 FedEx car is Denny Hamlin, 9 is Chase Elliott, 18 M&Ms is Kyle Busch. I haven't watched in forever, so those are some of the ones I know in the Cup Series.
Awesome cheers mate! I'm slowly learning but appreciate the help.100% printing out a driver lift for the Daytona 500
7:54 “thank god for safer barriers”, words i say every year since they were installed.
9:49 Its Bristol aka the last great Colosseum, its a short track that is fun to watch
Daytona is more of a week long event than just the 500. It starys on Tuesday with the Busch clash, which is a non-points event, almost like an all-star event. The 500 is also the only event that you race for qualifying posititions. The duals are on thursday night and your finish it either of those races determine your starting spot for the 500.
Those three races are much shorter than the 500. One thing most formula 1 fans dont realize is how long these races are. The typical Daytona 500 is between 3.5 and 4 hours from start to finish
Bristol has some of the steepest banking of the tracks they run at, I think the steepest is Daytona though but Dayton is just so big it doesn't look as steep in video.
You can only use your second car, aka the backup car, if you crash before the race in practice or qualifying. However, at the moment, there is no practice or qualifying because of the pandemic.
Ahh ok thank you!
After a car has been in a wreck (during a race) there is a 5 minute repair clock. A car must meet minimum speed (varies based on the track) by the end of that 5 minute clock. If not, they are out of the race. The only time a back up car can be used is if a car wrecks during qualifying or practice. Then the back up car will have to start at the back & will lose their qualifying spot. As in, if a pole sitter wrecks in practice, he starts in the back in a back up car, not on the pole.
Nah, if someone crashes in a race, they can't use a second car, if their car is too damaged, their done.
Only time they're allowed to use the backup is if it gets wrecked I'm practice or qualifying.
Number 3 and 2 happened in the same track, Kansas Speedway, on different races. #3 in the Xfinity Series and #2 in the Monster Cup Series. That track has a number of violent crashes in the last years.
Kansas is a weird track that either leads to really boring races or really exciting races.
@6:50 thank God for the HAANS device. A simultaneous head-on with the wall and side strike is what killed Dale Earnhardt. He disliked the device and called it "That #&*@#$ noose." However, the very injury it was designed to prevent is what he got and killed him. Because of that, the HAANS device is mandatory in ALL forms of auto racing.
13:46 The teams have backup cars but those are only used for if the main car is wrecked/damaged during practice/qualifying. If they have to switch to one of those after qualifying, but before the race, they start in the back as it wasnt the same car they qualified in. Once the race officially starts, they can only use that car. If they are involved in a wreck and need a spare part to get the car running again on track, they could potentially use the spare car's parts. However this doesnt happen all too often as the time it takes to pull the part off the other car and get it onto the racing car. so at that point, most teams retire the car because there is too much damage/work on the car to get it to the minimum required speed to stay on the track.
Look at you knowing the drivers. I love that your loving watching NASCAR! Cool sport and yes they go around in a circle for hours but there are some extremely intense moments.
I'm slowly getting there mate!
F1 fans watching the huge and fiery wrecks of NASCAR and seeing their disbelief is always entertaining.
3:40 That looks a lot like Davey Allison's crash in the 1992 All-Star Race.
4:51 Just FYI, NASCAR have a livestreaming feature called NASCAR Drive, and you can choose to stream onboard from any of (I think) 5 different onboard cameras during the race.
9:48 The banking at Bristol is steep for a short track, but it's not the steepest on the schedule, like it used to be. The latest reconfiguration introduced progressive banking from 26 degrees on the bottom to 30 degrees up top in the corners, and 6-10 degrees on the straights, but the turns used to be banked at 36 degrees iirc, steeper than the Monza oval (30 degrees), Daytona (31 degrees), or Talladega (33 degrees).
An interesting geography tidbit, Bristol (the town, not the track) is split by the Tennessee-Virginia state line, and Bristol Motor Speedway is on the Tenessee side. (Because of this, track owner Bruton Smith decided to schedule an American football game [called the Battle at Bristol] between the University of Tennessee Volunteers and the Virginia Tech Hokies, which took place September 10, 2016. Tennessee won, 45-24. As a result, the current Google Maps image of Bristol Motor Speedway has a tarmac outline of an American football field in the infield. [DannyBTalks did a video on this back in September.])
10:14 Jimmie Johnson hadn't won (and still hasn't) since the spring Dover race in 2017, the spring after he tied the record at seven championships.
10:59 Exactly. Ryan Newman's wreck was coming to the checkers.
15:46 Nobody's ever done the three-peat in the 500 before, but if anybody can, it's Hamlin. He's one of the best plate racers today, and he's at the peak of his career. I could go on listing reasons why Hamlin's the favorite, but just go watch The Iceberg's video, "How and Why Denny Hamlin Is the 2021 Daytona 500 Favorite". He does a better job articulating this than I could ever hope to.
In fact, I think the only race circuit in history with higher banking than old Bristol is the old AVUS in Berlin, at 43 degrees.
13:40 What happens is as soon as race control puts out the caution, the field is "frozen." So wherever you were when the yellow came out is where you will restart, as long as you weren't involved in the wreck.
Some people die racing they don’t always make it out alive RIP Dale Earnhardt
Such a massive massive shame and awful tradigy!
You can only switch to a backup car before the race starts. Once the race starts, if you wreck, you're done, see you next week. Exhibition races that were previously held at Suzuka Circuit's East Short Course config and in Mexico City and Montreal's international road courses did allow for backup car switches during the race, if certain circumstances were met, IIRC, but only because they were non-championship, non-points races.
As someone who grew up watching NASCAR in the '90s, and stopped in 2002, it's weird seeing how different the crashes are now. Even with the roof flaps and everything, cars used to flip and tumble a lot more than they do now, which I'm not sure is better. The interesting thing about NASCAR crashes is, flipping tends to be safer for the driver. If you watch wrecks from the 1990s, you'll see the cars tumble, bits of sheet metal and such flying off, and all of that is energy being dissipated. It LOOKS horrifying, but a blunt impact is far worse. It's why no one really thought Dale Earnhardt's crash was a big deal at first; it didn't LOOK like a bad impact, and people were used to seeing cars flip down the straightaways with little to no injuries to the drivers. Granted, the cars themselves are probably much safer now, too. It's wild seeing the difference 20 years can make.
13:45 If a car is in a wreck and is not able to continue under it’s own power, it’s out. No backup car - the only time you could have a backup car is if your main car for that race was taken out in practice/qualifying or another event that week(Like the all-star or the Clashes). As for positioning, if the car is still able to run, they restart where they are at the time of caution if they’re running at a reasonable speed and in control of the car(IE at least pit road speed and not spinning around)- so if Joey was 13th when the yellow came out and he was in control of the car, he’ll start 13th on the restart.
17:27 that wreck happened right in front of me
13:39 I know what your talking about. If they cause a caution by spinning out they have to go to the back unless they can't continue.
Ahh ok got you! Cheers mate!
I’m a little upset they are putting dirt on the Bristol spring race in stead of the fall cause I love the spring race on the normal oval
Newman's crash is still so hard to watch...
On no.4 I was at that race and that wreck happened right in front of me, it was more crazy the fear
13:48 the field freezes when a caution is thrown so in that circumstance he finishes wherever he was when the caution came out
13:31 No. During a race drivers aren't allowed to go to their backup cars. The backup car is in case a driver crashes their primary car during practice or qualifying. Additionally, at this point of the season, with the pandemic, teams were bringing only one car to the race since the only on-track event was the race.
#3 was very surprising, both because this was a restart and because flips are normally restricted to the two fastest tracks, Talladega and Daytona. Although Kansas Speedway track is known for insane wrecks, I doubt anyone was expecting a flip.
#2 is exactly why SAFER barriers are absolutely necessary. I still can’t believe he sarcastically said “Fantastic!” before getting out of the car looking for something to punch. To be fair, it was his fourth straight DNF.
The fire in the crash at 4:30 is caused by the oil pump breaking. They use a dry sump oil system, which pumps pressurized oil to the engines. Most road cars are wet sump, meaning the oil is contained in a pan at the bottom of the engine, and is circulated by the rotation of the crank shaft. Dry sumps are better for race cars that see high G loads, because they maintain consistent oil pressure throughout the engine regardless of G loads. Wet sump systems aren't pressurized, and so G forces can starve areas of the engine, leading to heat and friction failure.
The drawback is that if a part, like an oil pump, is broken off in a crash, oil sprays onto hot parts like the exhaust and can ignite. Seems bad, but engine failures caused by wet sump systems were usually more dangerous and definitely caused more fires.
Bristol has highest banking of any track, 36 degrees, but the track is only a half mile. There's a football/american football pitch in the middle of the track used for college sports, because of the stadium like seating wrapping around the whole track and it's small size.
In nascar you can only replace your car during qualifying the day before the race on right before the race if you fail inspection. Once the race starts that is it you wreck your out unless you can fix it in 20 minutes
Ahh ok thanks for that. So even if the race is still going in you can get back out there in 20 minutes?
@@TheBeesleys99 you have 6 minutes of cumulative time on pit road to repair enough to meet minimum speed then you have unlimited time to make further repairs.
You can use the backup if you crash in practice after qualifying but that hasnt been the case this past season
So to that Joey Logano overtime question; in theory If he his car was ok and he didn't go to pit road the field is frozen at the time of caution. So he would get to start at whatever position he was when the caution flag was flown. However once he pits to fix his damage he falls back to whatever position he gets back on the track in.
2020 was a pretty crazy year for accidents, I'll tell ya. As someone who saw most of these live, I can tell you that in the moment it can be quite surprising. I think all the questions you asked were answered here in the comments section but Idk, you'll have to check; if all of them weren't then let me know and I'll try to fill you in!
Just one week away from cars on track at Daytona! Speedweek kicks off next Tuesday, and runs until the 500 on February 14th. For a full look at the schedule throughout next week, here's a link to NASCAR.com where you'll find a video that highlights the events & dates of them: www.nascar.com/video/franchise/up-to-speed/2021-daytona-speedweeks-schedule-set/
*NOTE: Start times are listed in that video but only account for east-coast US viewers, you'll have to check online to figure out when you'll be able to view these events in the UK. The networks broadcasting them are also listed in the video but only account for US viewers like me, so you'll have to check online and/or your TV guide to find out where in the UK you can watch everything.
Hope you upload more NASCAR content before this day next week!
Really appreciate you coming with so much insight mate! More will be coming!
@@TheBeesleys99 You're welcome! And I'm glad to hear that!
Snider the 21, and Gragson the 9 at 6:34, they had some beef at Vegas where Gragson wrecked Snider intentionally, and then Snider got redemption, funny enough that wasn’t the only case of redemption that race.
Closest finishes? I would love to see that. There has been real close finishes over the years.
Amazing video babe ❤️
Thanks babe!
In number nineteen when I watched this live I couldn’t believe Kyle Busch stayed In the race and came back to fourth
Funny story about the night of the Ryan Newman wreck. I was at a bar called boomer jacks, the race was in and I was with my new girlfriend of only 3 days. We were there drinking and eating. We watched that in the tv and it was horrific. Just like how my night on that day ended. She drank and drank and drank. I took her home and I told her I had to be up early for college and I had to go home. I told her I’d see her tomorrow. She then proceeded to try to fight me. Many many time. I eventually had to tackle her to the ground and get the cops to deal with her. When the police arrived, she tried to run away and got tazed. After that she got hog tide and carried away to the police car... as she was pissing herself. Crazy!!😅
Even Crazier Ryan Newman (Who has a Degree In Structural Engineering specifically for Race Cars) designed the very Bar that saved his life!
1:38 People love to give Kyle Busch shit for every little thing he does, but that incident was 110% an accident. He was trying to get back in line ahead of the 4 of Harvick and just misjudged the gap behind Elliott.
Yeah quite a few seem to not like him from what I've seen!
If a car were to survive the crash it would be the position they were in at the moment the caution is thrown
Bristol IS the steepest-banked track in NASCAR (36 degrees?).
Watch crashes at Pocono Raceway. Bizarre, spectacular and sometimes career-ending (or at least put you in hospital).
Fun Fact: in a normal NASCAR race, there are about 3-5 wrecks. There are also about 30 or so races per season. Thus, about 100 wrecks per season is normal. Stock Cars have much better safety features compared to F1. So, these guys wreck each other for shoots and giggles sometimes.
Jimmie Johnson retired at the end of 2020, IIRC. This year, it's Alex Bowman. At the time of the clip, it was Jimmie, though.
Nice reaction Beesley. I would love to take my car for a few laps around a NASCAR track, that would be fun. What's the weather over there?
Not too bad where I am but snow back home in england. How about for you mate?
@@TheBeesleys99 Pretty mild down south where I am but snow in the north.
They do have backup cars but they aren't allowed to use it once the race starts and even if they could it would take a while to have the car set up ready to go
#1 is still scary to watch glad he was ok. I truly thought it was another Earnhardt moment when he got hit on the driver side
For the Newman crash, I was hoping and praying his car would start barrell-rolling so it would land on its wheels and he could get out. I was terrified he had died in that crash.
@Beesley you should watch Nascars Worst Brake Failures. Jimmie Johnson at Watkins Glen is the worst one but he somehow turned out fine
If you are interested in doing the greatest Talladega finishes, you'll love it! I say you do it!
My favorite is the 2011 spring Talladega race, which is the closest finish at Talladega ever! The 48 of Johnson beat the 33 of Clint Bowyer by two one thousandths of a second! It was so close that they could barely catch it with the stop motion camera! I still get goosebumps when I see them heading through the trioval on a hard charge to the stripe!
for Newman's crash, both big hits it was the driver side door
There are few crashes in NASCAR that I can never bring myself to watch again, Newman's is one and Geoff Bodine's from Daytona in 2000 is the other, I have to look away. And I've been a fan of NASCAR forever
Bristol is one of the highest bank tracks
We have left hand drive here. The right side of a car hit at one point in a clip from a grand national Xfinity series race, at about the 8 minute mark, and you said it was driver side. It was passenger.
its what posotion their in after the wreckc if they pit or the people that pit in front of him
The corners at Bristol Motor Speedway are really steep lol
14 Drivers have Perished at Daytona in its illustrious History. #Rip All the Legends!
#4 is one that made me hold my breath (besides Newman's and Preece's accidents). The 7 that wrecked there is Justin Allgaier, a veteran of the Xfinity series. He ended up being taken to the hospital for observations after the accident, which happened at the Kentucky Speedway. They had another race the next day, which Allgaier did drive in after being cleared.
Any time you enter the pits, may it be for damage from a wreck or a regular pit stop, you give up your position. Filing to the back of the line when you get out of the pits.
Ok, so if the car comes into the pit and the other cars go around twice. I assume they are two laps behind?
@@TheBeesleys99 You are correct. They can continue to race to try and get their laps back. Via Wave around (All Lead Lap cars pit under caution and those cars a lap down stay out to get a lap back and start at the back) Or be the "Lucky Dog" Where if a caution comes out and you are the first car a lap down, you get your lap back regardless if lead lap cars pit.
@@eclipze9412 assuming they have time left on the repair clock if they were involved in a wreck and can reset the clock once they get back to racing
@@Lcngopher Well yes but I was trying to keep the explanation simple for a new fan.
That NASCAR crashes rarely result in serious injury these days is a fitting testament to the focus on safety the series has given, especially since losing one of its most prominent stars, Dale Earnhardt, Sr., to a freak accident 20 years ago today (2/18/2001).
To put it into perspective, F1 losing Ayrton Senna was equivalent to what happened with NASCAR losing Dale Sr. -- but the real parallel, to me, is what happened with another seven-time champion of his series, Michael Schumacher, even if it was outside racing. I keep checking in on Mr. Schumacher, in hopes that he might regain some of his personality and lucidity, but as of now... just sadness.
Also, that "retaliation" thing around 6:25 or so? Totally deliberate. Happens fairly often. The race control of NASCAR only penalizes it if it's truly obvious and egregious -- far cry from what the race stewards of F1 (and even IndyCar) do.
Backup cars are only used if a team's primary car is damaged during practice or qualifying. The car that starts the race is the one the team must use until the end. If it takes damage and cannot be repaired to raceworthiness within 6 minutes, it must be retired from the race. (There is also a minimum speed cars must maintain to be considered raceworthy. Not sure what current rules are regarding failing that.)
I’m a harvick fan!! I love that you thought it was Kevin harvick even though didn’t win. Top 10 though!
Wow I just realized this was posted on my bday
Hope you had a great day mate!
@@TheBeesleys99 I did
13:40 They don’t have any second car. If your car is totaled, you go to the garage and your out of the race.
1:30
Well he is the 2020 NASCAR Cup Series champion so.... he's good alright! And my favorite driver...
I just purchased a die cast of his car
@@fedde7232 I want one so bad.
In the 19th worst crash the 12 and the 22 are teammates
There was a wreck one year where a car went airborne into the fence above the wall, and the engine was in the walkway between the grandstand and the track, on fire, and a tire landed on some lady's lap. Keep in mind the rubber on those tires are at 44 to 49 degrees C after a slide like that, and the wheel hub without the tire weighs 62 lbs (28 Kg), 75 lbs (34 Kg) with the tire. She had 3rd degree burns, a broken spine, a dislocated elbow, and a shattered femur on one leg, if I remember right. Pretty sure it was a grand national/Nationwide Series wreck, in the lower series, the day before the 500 back in 2013. Really terrifying stuff.

Did you get to see Jimmie Johnson race in the Rolex 24 just recently?
No I didnt. I heard about it on my discord though.
You can only use a backup car after you crash in practice or qualifying not after you crash in a race
Cant wait for the 2021 season. Also your Daytona watch along. Hoping to watch it but being Valentine’s Day that might not fly with the mrs...fingers crossed
We are doing our valentines on the 13th because of it aha!
The crash with the 20 and 11 are on the same race on Indianapolis the tires just ware out too quick and the tires go flat and they hit the wall Hamlin was in the lead with 7 to go but then the tires went flat and he hit the wall.
8:06 it wasn't in the drivers side in America we sit on the left you already know this
Oh yes! I do know that! Completely forgot in that moment. Apologies mate!
@@TheBeesleys99 quick question how long does it take for you to edit your videos
Not long to edit at all. But a 20-30 min video takes about 50 mins to render
So for this video the whole process is near 2 hours. And if the render fails it's another 50 minutes
@@TheBeesleys99 yeah just a little curious
Would love to see a reaction video to closest finishes, and one to sprint car dirt track racing crashes

Yep i did know that but complelty forgot in that moment!
6:23 Ben Rhodes meant to wreck him said it on his radio
Chase Elliot is my favorite racer🤘🏼
Number 20 Kyle Busch doing what he does best wrecking people
Busch is 18, 20 is Erik Jones. Just a heads-up for the future.
Somebody’s salty

Yeah the 9 in crash 20 is good, he won the championship that year
Bristol motor speedway is the fastest half mile oval in the world. very steep banking indeed.
you should watch top 20 NASCAR saves
14:04 that’s a tire failure
Thanks for watching that video. This video was the next best thing to the top 70 because it was shorter so if you were going to not do the 70 I would have recommended you this one. Fun vid tho
That is the reason I did this one aha! Appreciate the suggestion mate!
You should react to
Historic Red Flags: 2012 Daytona 500
Number 3 and 2 were both at the same track and that track is not even the fastest one
8:05 was not driver side
5:15 probably harder than it looked
people dont understand americans like to go fast while being stupid. Oval tracks and the need for speed leads to a lot of great wrecks. Nascar averages 3-5 wrecks every race so its just a great sport to watch.
Closest finishes please!
The 9 car ended up winning the championship in 2020
Great Video!
Legend!
Shit didn't get abnormal until about the top 4 (yes NASCAR is that fun to watch)
I remember watching Ryan Newman’s wreck live and just thinking that we lost him
The first crush is there any is there a season champion of 2020 Chase Elliott
you need to know there are about 80-100 crashes every season in all 3 touring series's so over 300 crashes every season
I’m an American f1 fan
Logano would have to pit to repair his damaged car and if the car meets the minimum speed for the racetrack then he would continue but at the tail end of what’s left of lead lap cars in the field
Awesome cheers!
14:49 proboly a flat
Lagano would not be able to race. If your car cannot keep up with minimum speed, which on that track is 170, he cannot continue to race
