Live Blogging Sprint Cup Series from Las Vegas On Fox


There is a new post up for your comments on the Las Vegas race. Thanks.

Get ready for what may be one of the best races of 2009 when all is said and done. If the Nationwide Series race from Saturday is any indication, the Las Vegas track is fast and the Cup action is going to be furious.

Chris Myers hosts the pre-race show from the Hollywood Hotel beginning at 3:30PM ET. He will be joined by Darrell Waltrip, Jeff Hammond and Digger. Amid the stories of this event, Digger will once again have a featured cartoon episode.

There are all kinds of stories throughout the field with the engine problems of Toyota, the struggles of Dale Earnhardt Jr. and joy of Max Papis who made the race on time. This should be a field day for the NASCAR on Fox pit reporters Krista Voda, Dick Berggren, Steve Byrnes and Matt Yocum.

Mike Joy will call the action with Waltrip and Larry McReynolds alongside. The green flag is scheduled for 4:46PM ET.

Pleas join us in the comments section as we talk about the TV coverage of this race. Just click on the comments button. This is a family-friendly website, please refrain from foul language or hateful speech.

Thanks again and happy posting.

Fox 3D rears it's unnecessary head. If I wanted to watch a video game, I'd be playing one.

If a race should reach its scheduled distance, Nascar will make one attempt . . . etc etc

Anonymous said...

Is it the tires or the track that causes these out of control cars? They all seem to be in turn 2.

Vicky D said...

Another caution. I hope i don't miss Tom Selleck tonight.

red said...

darbar: rumor is -- bumps in turn 2 causing fits.

Anonymous said...

this crash was caused by all the speedy dry out there!!!! look at all of you! you made NASCAR rush and this is what happened.

Sophia said...

Well now we know that JD wont allow #18 supporters in here.

2 - 4 inches of snow in NC cripples us. It always has some ice involved. I do have my bread & milk. I too wonder if the teams will fly tonite.

red said...

anon @8:19: perhaps nascar ought to have thrown the red flag and then taken their time, doncha' think?

DewCr3w88 said...

perfect script here Kyle from Las Vegas and nascar handed the race to him

Anonymous said...

Thanks Red. That was the same area of problems for the Nationwide race.

Karen said...

I hope i don't miss Tom Selleck tonight.

ok I dont understand this....first you say NASCAR didnt want to give the championship to Matt Kensith because he wasnt popular enough, AND now you say NASCAR is going to give races away to someone everyone hates?
THAT DOESNT MAKE ANY SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Trish, if you had a choice between flying home to Charlotte in the snow or spending the night in Vegas, which would you choose :-D

Karen said...

I'm very happy KyB won. He's got so much talent and when you got it, you outta flaunt it.

Sophia said...

@TOM SELLECK COMMENTS! What are yall talking about? Is Magnum P.I. repeat on or what's going on? :)

FRANKLY

I think they should've red flagged the track. TONS of stuff on it and with all the problems with engines...geez. Kind of anti climatic

I could say FAKE WWE ending but that would annoy some. :)

Anonymous said...

well red is pretty hard differentiate genuine support and baiting IMHO.

Daly Planet Editor said...

That was a blast. There will be a column up for your comments in a couple of minutes.

Thanks again for hanging with us for the race.

This should be an interesting winner interview.

If any Fox local station leaves the coverage before it is over, please report it here.

Thanks all,

JD

Good thoughts for all of you in the blizzard. Being from Wisconsin, I understand your pain. Take it easy on the road, everyone. Stay home unless you absolutely need to go out. I know many of you don't know how to drive in the white stuff.

Anonymous said...

fake? WWE? ok now that is a stretch...if NASCAR starts doing that, they would have to throw a red at every caution...Face it, you folks wouldnt be yelling for a red if Kyle wasnt leading.

Vicky D said...

great finishes for Jeff Burton, Reut, Bobby Labonte & Marcos too.

point taken. he's not my favorite driver so i am, perhaps, guilty of an unfair assumption.

i bet nos energy drink is hated by many

Sophia said...

In all fairness, no matter who won

NASCAR NEVER MAKES SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:-)

Karen said...
