NASCAR mandates sensitivity training for Kyle Busch after he used slur in post-race i
He said the "R" word. wtf is the "R" word
Kyle Busch will be required to take sensitivity training ahead of the 2022 NASCAR season. Busch was eliminated from the Cup Series playoffs on Sunday at Martinsville Speedway. After tangling with Brad Keselowski late in the race, Busch used the R-word as an adjective to describe how he felt about his longtime rival's actions in an interview with reporters after the race. “He was trying to do a Harvick is what he was trying to do," Busch said (via NBC) of contact from Keselowski on the last lap. Kevin Harvick tried to spin Busch a year ago at Martinsville to advance to the final round of the playoffs. "For what? For second place? To do what? He wasn’t going to transfer through with that. Freaking [R-word]. So stupid. I don’t understand these guys.” Busch and Keselowski were among the four drivers eliminated from title contention at Martinsville. They needed to win to advance to the championship race next weekend and restarted second and third behind Alex Bowman for the race's final two-lap shootout. Neither driver was able to catch Bowman, however. Keselowski tagged Busch on the final lap, though getting to second place ahead of Busch wasn't going to be enough to get Keselowski into the final round. Busch and Keselowski have never been friends throughout their NASCAR careers as they've been the top drivers in the series for the past decade. The Cup Series champions have had various well-documented run-ins throughout their time in NASCAR. Busch is the second NASCAR driver required to take sensitivity training for publicly saying a variation of the R-word. Truck Series driver Hailie Deegan used it on a live stream to describe someone she was racing in a a simulated race in January. Deegan later apologized on Twitter to "everyone who was offended by it," and NASCAR ordered her to get sensitivity training before the season began. Like Deegan, Busch will not face an on-track penalty for what he said. |

Kyle should publicly tell NASCAR to **** off. Attendance and ratings are in the toilet already and they keep doing shit like this.

Talk about a slow moving train wreck of a self inflicted death, NASCAR will be a core college business class on how to **** up a good thing.

The France family -the "First Family of NASCAR" - has controlled the stock car racing organization since its inception in 1948. Brian France, the grandson of founder Bill France, Sr. and son of former CEO Bill Jr., has been at the helm since 2003.
$5.7B is the net worth of the family. https://www.forbes.com/profile/france/?sh=c6bd81b20a5a Read a book on the early years of NASCAR. Three men had the idea to incorporate. Bill France said that he'll take care of it. He did by incorporated in HIS name only shafting his partners. |

I lnow people whose livelihoods depended on races at Rockingham so when they started buying tracks and moving races I already hated France and their bullshit. The weather was perfect right after Daytona here and didn't bake in 120 heat for 6 hours like Charlotte races. It was always packed.
That area a deserted area now, killed the drag race track across the street also. State of NC set aside millions for revitalization of the track and immediate areas recently and some racing is scheduled to return. Personally I think track is too big for most series so unless they convert to road race it'll never work well. |

Saw a news story yesterday about how NBC and NASCAR will try to "quiet the crowd noise" during post-race interviews so fans can hear the interview better. Yeah, that's why they want to mute the crowd.
