We feel that NASCAR has acted unjustly in leveling fines on drivers for public allowing the occasional "obscene" word to slip. This is a fine levied for showing emotion in Victory Lane after winning a race. Most recently this fine has impacted the "Chase for the Championship" a.k.a. "The NASCAR Playoffs" with the moving of Dale Earnhardt Jr from first to second. Others have felt the wrath of NASCAR President Mike Helton, and they to have be unjustly fined by the almighty sanctioning body for stock car racing. Denial of emotion in Victory Lane puts a black cloud on racing and a smear on the fabric of the sport.

    • NASCAR has gone to far and is denying driver's the right to show emotion in Victory Lane. They should be called NA$CAR!!!

    • Check to see if anyone else in the past few months have said that same word on air after a race...eg Rusty Wallace a couple of months ago did the same thing and I know nothing was done about that. Nascar is doin this to make more controversy and they have chosen the wrong guy...Jr has come a long way and he deserves to keep his points!!

    • other cup drivers have done the same thing and only got $ fined. Please be consistent. Next year perhaps don't fine points for things not on the track - fine large amounts of money. $50,000 instead of $10,000

    • This comment was not directed towards anyone ,just caught up in the excitment of the win. It's really sad that the drivers have to be so cautious when they are so excited and happy. Nascar you are takeing their fun out of the racing. The words were not that bad you hear it on tv everyday.

    • Watch Shaq on an NBA game or Tiger Woods on a PGA tournament... do they take away points for his mouth? Keep this up and you can have your drama and I'll keep the 25% of my pay that has been going into your pockets for NASCAR merchandise and tickets and sponsorship support.

    • natzicar has went too far this time - they are the ones who bunched up the top 10 by 5 points apart - it is very unjust to fine any driver points for an off track offense - STOP SUPPORTING NASCAR IN ANY WAY UNTIL HELTON SOBERS UP
