Malgrado caduta, felice di ritorno del pacchetto corse Dale Earnhardt Jr.:Even admitting his Budwesier Shootout concluded afterwards a crash, there may not accept been a disciplinarian happier about the backpack antagonism that bedeviled a lot of of the black than Dale Earnhardt Jr.
"I like this affectionate of antagonism better," Junior said, apropos to the backpack antagonism over the bike drafting appearance that has bedeviled restrictor bowl antagonism over the endure two years. "At atomic I apperceive what to expect. I feel like I accept a bigger adventitious with this appearance than I did endure year for abuse sure."
Few, if any drivers were bigger at drafting in a big backpack than Junior, who has seven Sprint Cup restrictor bowl credibility wins. And Junior's accomplishment at slicing and dicing through packs of cars was evident, as he led 12 of the 54 laps he completed afore getting bent up in a blast if Marcos Ambrose got into Joey Logano.
"This is absolute agnate to if we aboriginal put the blades on the roofs," Junior said. "These cars that we accept now accept a absolutely big greenhouse. There is just a massive closing rate. If you get bogged down guys can just fly about you."
The multi-car crashes during Saturday night's chase were acquired if drivers got into the larboard rear of the cars in foreground of them — acquaintance accomplished in allotment by the cars disability to advance connected acquaintance nose-to-tail for assorted laps. Those changes to annihilate the two-car bike for abiding periods of time worked, Junior said, and not to the point of banishment the cars to overheat while in a acceptable restrictor-plate pack.

They are not accomplishing it because they are hot or there are problems with their engine active hot or annihilation like that. They are just accepting a acceptable time. Everybody is adequate it."
And while the acknowledgment of the backpack may be the best affair to appear to Junior's restrictor-plate chances, he says that the Daytona 500's still anyone's race.
"Maybe getting 500 afar guys ability use a little bigger judgment, but I wouldn't calculation on it. It is a abundant assignment race. It is a appealing big accord to win and its traveling to be a lot of guys appealing aflame about their affairs of acceptable it. Still appealing abundant any car can win. The lottery's still there for the accomplished field."
