    I need help (as usual....) I need real NASCAR fans to help me.


    Here's my malfunction!


    MM get the win on the last lap.

    He gets the 5 points for leading a lap, right? I guess he does get credit for leading the last lap? Even if it's not a whole lap?

    LOL, I put way too much thought into stuff like this!

    I went on the NASCAR website and could not find any info....I could look in the Monday sports section and they would give the break down of who lead what laps and when---like J. Gordon 1-25, H. Sandler 25-67....., but not anymore....

    Does anyone know where I can find that info?

    THanks!

    Yes, the winner of the race gets 5 points for leading a lap, even if it is only the last lap. Lap leaders are only calculated at the start/finish line. So someone could pass the leader going into turn one and lose the lead coming out of turn four and not get credit for leading a lap. The leader of the lap is the driver leading at the start/finish line.

    You can see who received 5 bonus points for leading a lap and who received 10 bonus points (5 for leading a lap and 5 more for leading the most laps) by going to NASCAR.com then go to the Standings tab and down to the Cup Results link.

    Here it is for Michigan.

    Edited to add that Paddocktalk.com has a NASCAR section. They will tell you the bonus points and also the number of laps led and the number of times the driver led. Here is the link for Michigan.

    God, I hate it when TV shows take a song and run it into the ground. I loved it the first time I heard it, in it's new in-CAR-nation, now it's simply annoying!

    Dat was my boy!

    I was driving back from Atlanta for the entire race. I started listening on lap 4 and kept finding new stations that carried it all the way home. Except until that final caution! So I missed the green, white, checker restart. Then it took me a couple more hours before I got home and could check the results online. YAY Kasey and RPM!
