You know, the more I look at that....JV should have saved that.

That could be the last we see of him this season and possibly ever. Although if he does go the next rounds, he probably has a chance to qualify at one or two of them.

But if he doesn't get into the top 35 in points after Bristol (which he probably won't now) his NASCAR aspirations are screwed.

Of all the new open wheel drivers this year he's shown by far the most potential and aptitude.

The tactics are a bit more aggressive in this because it is a qualifying race.

But yeah, you get teammates helping each other a lot. Particularly on plate tracks like this one, where you can push each other along and gain lap speed.

Excellent to see Jarrett make it for his last 500. Didn't expect Andretti to make it!

Roll on Sunday.

Come Sunday though don't count on a teammate when it comes down to the wire.

Carpentier, I thought showed some potential.

The race Sunday should be a wingdinger, aren't all the Daytona 500's.

Never say "big one" when you're refering to a restrictor plate race.

Is Channel Five going to do what they did last year when they show the full race but it wasn't live?

Franchitti grabbed fourth, hopefully he can have a good race and get some experience under his belt.

http://www.nascar.com/multimedia/web...sch/index.html for the Nationwide race - as last year it would seem they will be on NASCAR.com

For some reason none of the video clips play for me on NASCAR.com - do they play for anyone else? Just wondering whether it is an outside-US thing - they played fine in 2007.

Thanks for the Nationwide live stream link.

I have the same problem with the video clips. Last year I had no problems.
