      ​@@dadbodiiit was actually a very accurate nickname. Early in the MWR days Reuti was the sole bright spot, even holding his own in a couple races his rookie season. He was the biggest reason, driver wise that the team was able to grow. Eventually winning the rain shortened Coke 600. Which after 2007, the entire world would have laughed at the idea that MWR would ever see victory lane. Then a year later he flat out won Chicago. A down year and a renewed MWR unfortunately caused him to leave. kind of a shame, solid driver

    The thing with Denny Hamlin is he’s going to dare you to put your car into an non advantageous position, then he’s keen enough to manipulate the air off his car to impact yours because he understands how to it. Is it aggressive? Not one bit. Is it dirty? Nope. Is it a popular way to race? Also no

    Denny is an enigma. I haven't had a driver I truly support since Keselowski left Penske (although I still believe in his talent). I think Denny has been one of the most talented drivers since he took over that 11 car, but has the biggest ego to go with it. I'd love to see him break through and win a championship, but his shenanigans and run-ins will only continue to suppress his full potential.

    • @limprooster3253
      @limprooster3253 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Goofy as hell dude. I enjoyed the recap but spinning your tires on a restart and staying on a guy's door does not make you a weapon. Block was aggressive but it's the All Star race. Incredibly normal night with one big block. Calling it a nightmare race is so bizarre, this is obviously an attempt to capitalize on the recent Hamlin controversies. Still, fun race and fun recap except for the reaching.

    It’s very rare that a video from the NASCAR community actually pisses me off, but I feel like the way you titled this video and how you went after Denny specifically is such an obvious plot to capitalize in light of his current reputation. My problem with this is that there are plenty of examples of drivers having much dirtier races… I see nothing in this video that even comes close to justifying the title.
    I mean I don’t feel like picking apart every single incident he was in from this race, but to call him a “ABSOLUTE Weapon” is just not accurate. Every incident he was “Involved in” was not egregiously his fault, and yet you try to make it seem that way. To me the whole thing just seems like clickbait

Brad Keselowski cleaned up his act like 5 years ago and he's still "Bad Brad.". It's literally just Kyle Larson that they excuse it
