Networks do whatever they can to get exposure. NASCAR uses crashfests to sell tickets and attract viewers who would not know a race if one broke out. Nothing new here. Controversy, rivalry's and smack talk all sell tickets.

Many folks want to be entertained and know little to nothing about driving or racing.

How dare you call into question the integrity of NASCAR and its fans ...

I share in your support of Simona, she's the biggest risk to Danica's remaining 8 minutes of fame. She burns in a car fire, walks out of the treatment centre and races the next race. Danica openly blames her team in the next race for giving her a bad car...........

They'll shuffle Danica off to the circle track as she speaks the language of the fans and fits the "rubbing is racing" crowd.

I was hoping for more of a Penthouse letter.
