Gordon vs. Kenseth: NASCAR Still
Inconsistent with Rule Enforcement
|
During the Pepsi 400, Carl Edwards
unintentionally spun Michael Waltrip in the No. 99 while bump
drafting with him. NASCAR quickly responded by penalizing
Edwards for "aggressive driving" holding him on pit road for one
lap. In the closing laps of the USG Sheetrock 400 at
Chicagoland Speedway, Jeff Gordon spun Matt Kenseth to assume
lead with less than 10 laps remaining.
NASCAR set silently by and did not respond to Gordon’s
obvious aggressive driving despite Mike Helton’s impressive
pre-race speech concerning rule enforcement and getting tough on
rule breakers.
Fans showed their disapproval of Gordon’s lack of class on
the track by tossing beer cans at his car as he made his victory
lap. NASCAR has stepped into a new era with the Chase for the
Cup and multi-million dollar television packages, but they still
suffer from the same inequities since the sanctioning body
formed – Inconsistent Rule Enforcement and Favoritism.
Gordon whined on the radio during the Pepsi 400 about Dale
Earnhardt Jr.
bump drafting him into the corners and wanting NASCAR to do
something.
Obviously Gordon believes NASCAR works for him and he can do
as he pleases. Gordon’s racing winning move at Chicagoland was
classless.
NASCAR’s inability to consistently enforce rules is as well. |
