At this point, he should just quit like Dale Jr. did. He's at the tail end of his career anyway, and any more such hits till they fix this new car's low-speed impact issues could possibly do him in.
100% agree, I would guarantee he has had multiple undocumented concussions in the past, many drivers have reported taking the “hardest hits of their careers” this season.
ISTR an article / interview with Junior that confirmed just that, back in the days when no one racing would tike time out when they felt fine. I guess now of course all the imaging resources and MRI's CAT scans which were never available routinely to people gives medics something more tangible to help their treatments and decisions.
I feel like they've only started taking it seriously the last few years, this interview is rather infamous and the fact he was even released from the infield care center at the time was a disgrace.

Kevin Harvick becomes the only back to back race winner this year so far. Awesome drive.

No Tarso Marques. No Team Stange. What a shocker.

I mean, they have on their website that they were going to run in 2019, of course that never happened, they still haven't even updated their website.

There are seven different nationalities represented, a NASCAR record.

Very reasonable. Crashes at WGI and Daytona are mostly big hits.

Doesn't help everybody drives like neanderthals at Daytona. Dude is liable to get himself hurt worse especially if he isn't 100%.

this Raikkonen NASCAR thing. Is it a 1 off for Watkins Glen, or is it for the rest of the season?
