Californiaβs Great America in Santa Clara, California, will permanently close after Labor Day 2027, Six Flags officially confirms. The park, which opened in 1976, will kick off its final season in March 2027 after more than 50 years of operation.

and 2 years ago they suspended Freddie and gave Bubba a points penalty for having a flat tire, so idrc about if he said he has brake issues
NASCAR will review the Hill losing a spot at the end to Love but fwiw, Hill was talking about brake issues on his radio over the last couple of laps. And from my view, I can't say those guys have been best of friends.

someday i hope to watch a NASCAR where Bubba doesnβt get the rules bended to penalize him, almost all of Bubbas penalties have no precedent, and they penalize him under the guise of βsetting a precedentβ that they donβt enforce going forward
A new episode of "Hauler Talk" has just dropped. A few takeaways:
-- NASCAR is saying that to get penalized for going below the double yellow line, a car must have the whole tire down there AND improve the position AND not be forced down there. So three things.
-- In Kyle Larson's case, he didn't go below the yellow line (was on it), so it's a moot point.
-- Austin Hill would likely have been black-flagged if he hadn't already finished as the last car on the lead lap. He was not forced below the line by Larson in Turn 2, NASCAR felt; Hill went down there himself AND improved his position. But they didn't call anything because the penalty would have put him right where he was.
-- Ross Chastain and Carson Hocevar went below the line but were not penalized because they were forced below the line by Todd Gilliland, NASCAR felt.
-- NASCAR looked at penalizing Gilliland but it was inconclusive whether he forced them down there on purpose, so they didn't make a call (but they could have and it was close, apparently).
βadvancing your position is changing your name in the lineupβ -Dale Jr
Bubba when he does not change his name in the lineup: βthatβs gonna be a penalty iβm afraidβ
Things got a little heated debating the double yellow line rule. Do you agree with Dale or TJ? π¬

so why wasnβt this called? they keep covering themselves by clarifying rules with clarifications that contradict past calls
Further from NASCAR on the Larson photo showing him on the yellow line (not below, in their view): If any part of the tire is still on the line, it's not a penalty.
They're saying both tires have to be fully below the yellow line. (I'm just telling you what they said.)

all the chevys took the longest line possible though the trioval and his tires were definitely below the yellow lmao
Two things from NASCAR:
1. They looked at the SMT data and Stenhouse, Byron and Custer were all wide open from Turn 3 to the end of the race (none of them lifted to let Larson win, in other words)
2. They say Larson's left-side tires were on the yellow line but never below the yellow line. So they reviewed that and say it's legal.

βi dont know what happened, i guess he got hitβ
.@ZaneSmith SLAMS @CarsonHocevar after the checkered flag, as the dislike between these two continues.
Smith is told that the No. 77 team says they were shoved into the No. 38 a few laps before the finish.
Zaneβs response: βI donβt give a f*ck.β

all iβm gonna say is the reasons i support Bubba are far stronger than the results on track, he could run last every week and iβll still be there, proud of his speed today and all season, i hope it will come together soon
idc if he collected himself, good for Riley, the 71 dumped him and gave him a injury in NH, glad Riley ended one of the 71βs days
