00:00:08,054 --> 00:00:10,724
[crowd talking]
2
00:00:10,807 --> 00:00:14,019
[reporter] We are joined by Tyler Reddick,
owner of number 45.
3
00:00:14,102 --> 00:00:16,396
[reporter 2] Do you feel
any added pressure knowing
4
00:00:16,479 --> 00:00:18,898
you're always
one of the favorites?
5
00:00:18,982 --> 00:00:22,485
[Tyler] It's a confidence booster if you
are favorite going into the weekend.
6
00:00:22,569 --> 00:00:24,612
Do you feel like
a championship favorite?
7
00:00:24,696 --> 00:00:27,240
I don't know yet.
That's for you guys to decide.
8
00:00:27,323 --> 00:00:28,950
I just go out there and drive.
9
00:00:29,034 --> 00:00:31,411
Every lap matters,
every position matters.
10
00:00:31,494 --> 00:00:34,873
I want to keep gaining points,
get further away from that cut line.
11
00:00:34,956 --> 00:00:37,459
[reporter] This is the tightest
I've seen a Round of 8 start.
12
00:00:37,542 --> 00:00:38,835
It's gonna be tough.
13
00:00:38,918 --> 00:00:40,587
It's closer than ever.
14
00:00:40,670 --> 00:00:43,048
Gotta not make mistakes
and have good luck.
15
00:00:43,131 --> 00:00:44,257
[reporter] Thank you.
16
00:00:45,759 --> 00:00:47,927
[intense music]
17
00:00:48,011 --> 00:00:50,930
{\an8}[producer speaking]
18
00:00:59,439 --> 00:01:00,774
{\an8}I wasn't in that plan, was I?
19
00:01:00,857 --> 00:01:02,692
{\an8}[producer speaking]
20
00:01:02,776 --> 00:01:03,651
Imagine that.
21
00:01:04,694 --> 00:01:05,904
{\an8}[intense music]
22
00:01:06,988 --> 00:01:10,617
{\an8}[Mike] When you talk about drivers
who could race into the championship race,
23
00:01:10,700 --> 00:01:11,743
{\an8}here's a question,
24
00:01:11,826 --> 00:01:15,163
why aren't more people talking
about Christopher Bell?
25
00:01:15,246 --> 00:01:17,916
He made it to
the Championship 4 last year.
26
00:01:17,999 --> 00:01:20,877
He is rarely discussed
as a Joe Gibbs Racing star.
27
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:22,879
He's rarely in that spotlight.
28
00:01:22,962 --> 00:01:25,632
Normally that spot's
held by Denny Hamlin,
29
00:01:25,715 --> 00:01:29,427
but C-Bell is thriving,
had a strong qualifying effort.
30
00:01:29,511 --> 00:01:33,765
He's gonna begin this race on
the front row alongside Kyle Larson.
31
00:01:33,848 --> 00:01:35,809
[Kyle] In my eyes,
he's not an underdog.
32
00:01:35,892 --> 00:01:39,229
{\an8}I've raced with him for a decade
33
00:01:39,312 --> 00:01:42,273
and seen how extremely good he is.
34
00:01:42,357 --> 00:01:43,566
[intense music]
35
00:01:43,650 --> 00:01:46,903
[Steve] It's now down to
eight drivers left to decide
36
00:01:46,986 --> 00:01:49,656
who will be
the 2023 Cup Series Champion
37
00:01:49,739 --> 00:01:52,408
as the NASCAR playoffs
roll into Las Vegas
38
00:01:52,492 --> 00:01:55,745
for one of the biggest races
of the year.
39
00:01:55,829 --> 00:01:57,247
A win for a playoff team today
40
00:01:57,330 --> 00:02:02,168
is an automatic berth into
the Championship 4 in Phoenix.
41
00:02:02,252 --> 00:02:04,546
{\an8}[producer speaking]
42
00:02:08,133 --> 00:02:10,218
I mean, like lap one.
43
00:02:12,387 --> 00:02:14,514
[Steve] Place your bets.
We're ready to race in Vegas.
44
00:02:14,597 --> 00:02:17,058
[crew member] 400 miles today,
let's be there at the end.
45
00:02:17,142 --> 00:02:19,644
We got your back in here.
Let's go get 'em.
46
00:02:19,727 --> 00:02:20,937
We're good, green.
47
00:02:23,022 --> 00:02:24,941
[Steve] Green flag here in Las Vegas.
48
00:02:25,024 --> 00:02:26,818
Christopher Bell with a push.
49
00:02:26,901 --> 00:02:29,154
Martin Truex will lead
the field to turn one.
50
00:02:29,237 --> 00:02:31,322
[engines rev]
51
00:02:34,409 --> 00:02:36,327
[Rick] Larson with the momentum now.
52
00:02:36,411 --> 00:02:40,540
He's got to the back bumper of the 20,
goes to the bottom of the track.
53
00:02:40,623 --> 00:02:42,167
He's gonna take the lead.
54
00:02:42,250 --> 00:02:45,378
[crew member] Still out there?
Still there and clear.
55
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,841
[Steve] They do drag race in Vegas,
but now we're on the oval.
56
00:02:49,924 --> 00:02:52,635
It looks like a drag race.
Bottom of the track.
57
00:02:52,719 --> 00:02:54,429
Here comes Christopher Bell.
58
00:02:54,512 --> 00:02:56,139
[Dale] Side-by-side,
almost contact.
59
00:02:56,222 --> 00:02:58,308
These guys race close and hard.
60
00:02:58,391 --> 00:03:01,769
[Steve] They run five laps back and forth,
back and forth.
61
00:03:03,521 --> 00:03:05,064
He... Oh, wow.
62
00:03:05,148 --> 00:03:07,317
That looked like madness.
63
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,611
-[Cliff] Did you hit the wall?
-[Kyle] A little bit.
64
00:03:09,694 --> 00:03:11,905
{\an8}[Kyle] I'm mad at myself.
My race is over.
65
00:03:11,988 --> 00:03:15,241
{\an8}Barely nicked the wall,
and it helped straighten me out.
66
00:03:15,325 --> 00:03:18,786
Okay, now I just gotta nurse it
to the next pit stop.
67
00:03:18,870 --> 00:03:20,538
No matter what race you win,
68
00:03:20,622 --> 00:03:23,666
it takes good fortune
along the way.
69
00:03:23,750 --> 00:03:27,420
[Steve] He bounced off the wall,
gets it righted, and gets it rolling.
70
00:03:27,503 --> 00:03:29,881
[Rick] Keselowski all the way
down to the apron.
71
00:03:29,964 --> 00:03:33,927
Trying to stay in front of the 5,
but here comes Larson.
72
00:03:34,010 --> 00:03:36,179
[Steve] Larson will move him up
just slightly there,
73
00:03:36,262 --> 00:03:38,598
and Larson will have a lead on 4.
74
00:03:38,681 --> 00:03:43,186
Kyle Larson leads this race
for the fifth time this afternoon.
75
00:03:43,269 --> 00:03:47,315
[Rick] He won stage one and stage two
and has led over 100 laps today.
76
00:03:47,398 --> 00:03:49,943
[Kyle] I was able to stretch out
a couple seconds,
77
00:03:50,026 --> 00:03:53,238
then I could see those guys
start to close on me.
78
00:03:53,321 --> 00:03:56,282
[Rick] Bell, pushing it
here at the end of the race.
79
00:03:57,116 --> 00:03:59,953
{\an8}[Christopher] I see Kyle slipping.
80
00:04:00,036 --> 00:04:01,704
{\an8}I started gaining on him.
81
00:04:01,788 --> 00:04:03,831
[Steve] Bell, clearly the faster car.
82
00:04:03,915 --> 00:04:06,000
Catching is one thing,
passing another.
83
00:04:06,084 --> 00:04:08,836
Three miles to go
here in the South Point 400.
84
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,172
[Christopher] I didn't think
I was gonna have a shot.
85
00:04:11,256 --> 00:04:13,841
He was so far out.
He was backing up in a hurry.
86
00:04:13,925 --> 00:04:15,718
[Steve] Bell close enough to close in.
87
00:04:15,802 --> 00:04:18,513
He's to the bumper.
They battle for the win.
88
00:04:18,596 --> 00:04:22,267
Bell now can almost touch Larson,
Larson throws the block.
89
00:04:22,350 --> 00:04:25,436
[Cliff] High, high, push it...
checkered flag, hell yeah!
90
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,730
[Steve] And he will win
the South Point 400.
91
00:04:28,898 --> 00:04:31,943
-[Kyle] Yeah, good job, guys.
-[Cliff] Let's go to Phoenix, boys.
92
00:04:33,361 --> 00:04:35,363
[Kyle] Honestly,
it's good to win a race.
93
00:04:35,446 --> 00:04:37,198
The Cup Series is so tough.
94
00:04:37,282 --> 00:04:40,868
Knowing you're locked into
the final four is a cherry on top.
95
00:04:40,952 --> 00:04:44,080
[Rick] Larson advances
to the Championship 4,
96
00:04:44,163 --> 00:04:48,751
but what an effort by
the 20 of Christopher Bell.
97
00:04:49,377 --> 00:04:52,380
[Christopher] Man, that one was close.
That one was close.
98
00:04:52,463 --> 00:04:56,676
Needed a little bit more...
Another lap, man.
99
00:04:56,759 --> 00:04:57,969
Just another lap.
100
00:05:04,225 --> 00:05:07,812
{\an8}-[Morgan] Going to Charlotte?
-The NASCAR Hall of Fame?
101
00:05:07,895 --> 00:05:11,899
{\an8}-Yep, got it.
-All right, you ready? Let's go.
102
00:05:12,859 --> 00:05:13,860
Thank you.
103
00:05:15,570 --> 00:05:19,240
Did you drive in my grass?
No, you're good.
104
00:05:19,324 --> 00:05:22,243
[Morgan] If I drove in your grass,
you directed me.
105
00:05:22,327 --> 00:05:24,579
-My grass has been a...
-[Morgan] Project.
106
00:05:24,662 --> 00:05:26,080
It's been a project.
107
00:05:26,164 --> 00:05:31,002
[Morgan] I don't know what finally
made you be a grass guy.
108
00:05:31,085 --> 00:05:34,088
This is the first house
that we had with a yard.
109
00:05:35,048 --> 00:05:39,469
Christopher strictly envies this guy
110
00:05:39,552 --> 00:05:42,221
on the corner up here on our right.
111
00:05:42,305 --> 00:05:45,016
He envies his grass.
It is beautiful.
112
00:05:45,099 --> 00:05:48,561
One day... One day, we'll get there.
113
00:05:51,314 --> 00:05:54,692
I am Christopher Bell,
and I drive race cars.
114
00:05:54,776 --> 00:05:58,363
There was no plan B,
I was gonna make it happen,
115
00:05:58,446 --> 00:06:00,948
whether dirt track racing
or NASCAR racing.
116
00:06:01,032 --> 00:06:03,201
I didn't think it was
gonna be NASCAR.
117
00:06:03,284 --> 00:06:07,330
I was committed. Ever since
I was in my early teens,
118
00:06:07,413 --> 00:06:09,540
wanted to be a race car driver,
119
00:06:09,624 --> 00:06:12,377
and Morgan was dedicated
to being a Cup wife.
120
00:06:12,460 --> 00:06:14,545
That's all she wanted to be,
a Cup wife.
121
00:06:14,629 --> 00:06:16,339
Stop it.
Don't even start.
122
00:06:16,422 --> 00:06:19,217
[Christopher] You know,
I'm very quiet, reserved.
123
00:06:19,300 --> 00:06:22,720
I keep to myself, I don't want
to be known for social media
124
00:06:22,804 --> 00:06:26,599
or known for doing dumb stuff.
I wanna be known for winning races.
125
00:06:26,682 --> 00:06:30,019
Wonder if the kids
are gonna know who I am.
126
00:06:30,103 --> 00:06:33,398
I haven't won enough to be
that guy yet. One day I will.
127
00:06:34,982 --> 00:06:37,235
All right, so,
we got two teams here.
128
00:06:37,318 --> 00:06:41,239
We got team one, the driver,
then team one, the loser.
129
00:06:42,865 --> 00:06:45,410
{\an8}[producer speaking]
130
00:06:45,493 --> 00:06:48,538
No, I'm not an underdog
in my eyes.
131
00:06:49,872 --> 00:06:52,583
Who's strong
and who can jack the car?
132
00:06:52,667 --> 00:06:55,294
We'll go you,
you're gonna be my jackman.
133
00:06:55,378 --> 00:06:56,712
All right.
134
00:06:56,796 --> 00:07:00,258
I think that we,
as in the 20 car,
135
00:07:00,341 --> 00:07:02,885
are capable
of being the best team.
136
00:07:02,969 --> 00:07:05,805
This year, have we been the best,
week in and week out?
137
00:07:05,888 --> 00:07:09,183
We have not,
but I think that is our own doing.
138
00:07:10,226 --> 00:07:12,728
Yeah, there we go, we beat 'em.
139
00:07:12,812 --> 00:07:15,356
I successfully got beat by a fifth-grader.
140
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,819
Our ceiling is as high as any other
team's ceiling in the industry.
141
00:07:19,902 --> 00:07:22,780
-You're 11 left.
-I'm 11.
142
00:07:22,864 --> 00:07:25,032
Thank you for the ride, Denny.
143
00:07:31,122 --> 00:07:35,042
[Dennis] They stole my name,
I'm back to Dennis again.
144
00:07:35,126 --> 00:07:37,837
-I've always been Big Denny.
-[Denny] Big Denny.
145
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,338
[Dennis] Yeah. Big Denny, Little Denny.
146
00:07:39,422 --> 00:07:42,633
{\an8}James Dennis Allen Hamlin Jr.
147
00:07:42,717 --> 00:07:45,720
{\an8}-[Mary Lou] He's not a junior.
-He is a junior.
148
00:07:45,803 --> 00:07:48,222
-James is a surname.
-We have this argument all the time.
149
00:07:48,306 --> 00:07:52,185
{\an8}A junior has to be
the exact same name.
150
00:07:52,268 --> 00:07:53,728
{\an8}Not in my book, it don't.
151
00:07:55,188 --> 00:07:58,691
So it's my son, my rule,
I'm living with it.
152
00:07:58,774 --> 00:08:00,526
[Mary Lou] Okay.
153
00:08:00,610 --> 00:08:05,490
My name is Dennis Hamlin,
and I'm Denny Hamlin's daddy.
154
00:08:06,782 --> 00:08:09,785
{\an8}[producer speaking]
155
00:08:09,869 --> 00:08:12,622
I am very proud of that fact.
156
00:08:12,705 --> 00:08:15,791
Not because of
the race car driver he is,
157
00:08:15,875 --> 00:08:18,127
more of the young man
he grew up to be.
158
00:08:18,878 --> 00:08:21,714
He made my whole life.
He's my heartbeat.
159
00:08:26,511 --> 00:08:31,182
[Mary Lou] If you find out that your kid
is interested in something,
160
00:08:31,265 --> 00:08:34,644
you support it 100%.
161
00:08:34,727 --> 00:08:38,189
This is my '32
that I sold to keep him going.
162
00:08:38,272 --> 00:08:42,485
And this one is the '40 Ford
I had, and I sold that one,
163
00:08:42,568 --> 00:08:45,196
and there's
a '69 I had, and I sold it.
164
00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:51,244
[Mary Lou] We refinanced our house to
get out money to buy the next engine.
165
00:08:51,327 --> 00:08:54,205
I don't recommend people do that.
166
00:08:54,288 --> 00:08:58,876
Just so happens
that it worked out for us.
167
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,255
But the majority of people,
it does not work out for.
168
00:09:02,338 --> 00:09:05,508
[commentator] On the pole,
Denny Hamlin to the outside.
169
00:09:05,591 --> 00:09:07,927
[commentator 2] Hamlin running
a really smooth line.
170
00:09:08,010 --> 00:09:10,137
[commentator 3] Right from the green,
it was Hamlin.
171
00:09:10,263 --> 00:09:13,099
[commentator 4] He's one rising stars of
the NASCAR Nextel Cup.
172
00:09:13,182 --> 00:09:14,433
[commentator 5] Sweeps at Pocono.
173
00:09:14,517 --> 00:09:16,143
[commentator 4]
Hamlin, the race winner.
174
00:09:16,227 --> 00:09:18,688
Denny Hamlin wins
his second Daytona 500.
175
00:09:18,771 --> 00:09:20,481
Denny Hamlin gets the win,
176
00:09:20,565 --> 00:09:23,818
the new point leader
in the Sprint Cup Chase.
177
00:09:24,860 --> 00:09:27,113
You know, fate's gonna
decide this chase.
178
00:09:27,196 --> 00:09:30,324
it's gonna happen...
someone's gonna have bad luck.
179
00:09:30,408 --> 00:09:33,286
We're in right now.
We're trying to stay there.
180
00:09:33,369 --> 00:09:35,413
-[reporter] Congratulations.
-[Denny] Thank you.
181
00:09:35,496 --> 00:09:37,957
[Dennis] Him and Michael Jordan
are friends and partners.
182
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,419
So he pulls up in his Lamborghini.
183
00:09:41,502 --> 00:09:45,381
He reaches down to the side door,
pulls out this cigar.
184
00:09:45,464 --> 00:09:49,552
Michael Jordan signed it for me
and wrote a little letter says,
185
00:09:49,635 --> 00:09:52,263
"Break it when we win
the championship."
186
00:09:52,346 --> 00:09:55,182
I'm supposed to break that
and smoke that cigar.
187
00:09:55,266 --> 00:09:57,018
That's what I'm gonna do.
188
00:09:58,019 --> 00:10:01,314
And I'd give you everything I own,
189
00:10:01,397 --> 00:10:04,650
every car in this garage,
a house, whatever,
190
00:10:04,734 --> 00:10:06,444
if I could make that happen.
191
00:10:07,653 --> 00:10:11,449
[Mary Lou] To have
the satisfaction of working
192
00:10:11,532 --> 00:10:14,702
for it his entire racing career,
193
00:10:15,620 --> 00:10:17,955
I would like him
to win the championship.
194
00:10:18,039 --> 00:10:21,292
But if he doesn't,
it's not meant to be.
195
00:10:24,003 --> 00:10:28,090
[Mike] Miami, one of the most popular
vacation destinations in the world.
196
00:10:28,174 --> 00:10:33,679
For the eight drivers in the playoffs,
there's no relaxing.
197
00:10:33,763 --> 00:10:37,475
Just two chances left to grab
a seat in the Championship 4.
198
00:10:39,226 --> 00:10:41,145
{\an8}[Denny speaking]
199
00:10:41,228 --> 00:10:43,856
-[producer] You caught a fish?
-Yeah, a little large-mouth bass.
200
00:10:43,939 --> 00:10:48,110
{\an8}-How many did you catch?
-None. Caught weeds.
201
00:10:48,194 --> 00:10:49,195
{\an8}[producer speaking]
202
00:10:49,278 --> 00:10:51,238
[Denny] It's ice and compression.
203
00:10:51,322 --> 00:10:57,411
So I have a hereditary,
degenerative condition
204
00:10:57,495 --> 00:11:01,457
that essentially my collarbone
205
00:11:01,540 --> 00:11:03,834
has grown into my rotator cuff.
206
00:11:03,918 --> 00:11:06,379
I've officially knocked
off all four fenders.
207
00:11:06,462 --> 00:11:10,132
So both ACLs, this one.
Now I've gotta get this one fixed.
208
00:11:10,216 --> 00:11:13,469
It's a hereditary problem
I thought I could put off.
209
00:11:13,552 --> 00:11:16,097
My crew chief's
not very happy with me.
210
00:11:16,180 --> 00:11:19,433
I thought I could get
through one more season with it.
211
00:11:19,517 --> 00:11:23,854
Now the numbing shots and all
that stuff don't even work anymore.
212
00:11:23,938 --> 00:11:27,483
I can't get my arm up,
so I had issues, you know,
213
00:11:27,566 --> 00:11:31,779
adjusting brake bias,
flipping switches.
214
00:11:31,862 --> 00:11:33,698
All that's a little bit of a hindrance.
215
00:11:33,781 --> 00:11:35,866
It forces me to change my style.
216
00:11:35,950 --> 00:11:39,286
That's difficult,
but in the end, no excuses.
217
00:11:39,370 --> 00:11:41,789
I gotta just go out there and do it.
218
00:11:47,837 --> 00:11:51,674
[Ryan] A lot of times in these playoffs
you've seen one or two points
219
00:11:51,757 --> 00:11:54,093
determine if you get
into the next round.
220
00:11:54,176 --> 00:11:57,847
{\an8}Everyone feels the pressure
of these situations.
221
00:11:57,930 --> 00:12:01,267
{\an8}If anyone tells you there's
no pressure, they're lying.
222
00:12:02,435 --> 00:12:05,354
This is your whole season,
this is your year.
223
00:12:05,438 --> 00:12:08,482
[Rick] There's tension here
at Homestead Miami Speedway.
224
00:12:08,566 --> 00:12:12,361
It is two races to go in the Round of 8
for the NASCAR Cup Series.
225
00:12:12,445 --> 00:12:18,075
[Steve] No track on the NASCAR calendar
is more high-risk/high-reward than this.
226
00:12:18,159 --> 00:12:20,703
[Jeff] You don't wanna let down
in this race
227
00:12:20,786 --> 00:12:23,581
and then think you can
pick it back up in Phoenix.
228
00:12:23,664 --> 00:12:27,251
You've gotta keep that pressure
on the rest of the field.
229
00:12:28,210 --> 00:12:30,880
{\an8}[Christopher] It's a huge, huge race.
230
00:12:30,963 --> 00:12:34,008
{\an8}It's the difference between
being under the cut line
231
00:12:34,091 --> 00:12:37,052
or being locked in to Phoenix.
232
00:12:37,136 --> 00:12:38,471
[Jeff] Green flag in the air,
233
00:12:38,554 --> 00:12:42,224
and we are racing NASCAR
Cup Series-style at Homestead.
234
00:12:44,351 --> 00:12:46,270
[Rick] It's the second race
of the Round of 8.
235
00:12:48,397 --> 00:12:50,941
{\an8}[Ryan] Super hard to accomplish
winning in this sport.
236
00:12:51,025 --> 00:12:55,196
{\an8}It's those little things that can
build up and get momentum rolling.
237
00:12:55,279 --> 00:12:57,698
[Jeff] Side-by-side for the race lead,
238
00:12:57,782 --> 00:13:00,868
it's Ryan Blaney going to
the point in lap traffic.
239
00:13:00,951 --> 00:13:04,371
[Steve] Kyle Larson
hanging on by his fingernails.
240
00:13:06,123 --> 00:13:08,918
[Jeff] 12 just barely got in front
of the 5 there.
241
00:13:09,001 --> 00:13:11,962
{\an8}[Kyle] My driving style
is super aggressive.
242
00:13:12,046 --> 00:13:15,257
{\an8}Sometimes too aggressive,
which is why I make mistakes.
243
00:13:15,341 --> 00:13:16,967
[crew member] Road's open, we're pitting.
244
00:13:17,051 --> 00:13:19,762
[crew member 2] This time, do not speed
your second gear light.
245
00:13:19,845 --> 00:13:21,931
[Rick] Here comes
Kyle Larson back out...
246
00:13:22,014 --> 00:13:25,309
Larson flies, he hits
the barrier to the driver's right!
247
00:13:25,392 --> 00:13:26,477
Sand flying.
248
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:29,688
[crew member] 5 hit the barrels
behind you. Caution's out.
249
00:13:29,772 --> 00:13:32,608
[Kyle] He was well ahead,
so my goal was, "If I could just get
250
00:13:32,691 --> 00:13:35,569
to his bumper and ride
behind him down pit road,
251
00:13:35,653 --> 00:13:39,365
we'd have a faster pit stop
and I'd come out in front."
252
00:13:39,448 --> 00:13:41,867
When I realized
I'm gonna run into him,
253
00:13:41,951 --> 00:13:45,079
I locked my brakes up,
and that's when I hit him.
254
00:13:45,162 --> 00:13:48,833
It broke my left-front steering
and shot me into the barrels.
255
00:13:48,916 --> 00:13:51,877
I did not expect him
to slow down that much.
256
00:13:52,878 --> 00:13:55,381
[Cliff] Our ride's through.
We're done.
257
00:13:55,464 --> 00:13:57,383
[Steve] Day over for Kyle Larson.
258
00:13:57,466 --> 00:14:01,345
Hamlin the race leader
under the caution flag.
259
00:14:01,428 --> 00:14:04,890
[Ryan] There are adrenaline-filled moments
and tense moments.
260
00:14:04,974 --> 00:14:07,560
{\an8}It's hard to beat these guys,
to be competitive.
261
00:14:07,643 --> 00:14:11,605
{\an8}How do you change your driving style
week-to-week to stay relative?
262
00:14:12,356 --> 00:14:15,025
[Rick] Ryan Blaney got in the lead
and the win of the stage.
263
00:14:15,109 --> 00:14:17,695
-[Jonathan] 11 tight at your door.
-[Steve] Blaney will challenge.
264
00:14:17,778 --> 00:14:20,447
Bell wants three wide,
he'll get three wide.
265
00:14:20,531 --> 00:14:23,325
Blaney at the top.
Hamlin's gonna crowd him.
266
00:14:23,409 --> 00:14:26,245
Here comes Bell
for the lead to the inside.
267
00:14:26,328 --> 00:14:27,538
[Adam] Clear, take it.
268
00:14:27,621 --> 00:14:31,292
[Steve] What a move by Christopher Bell
from third to first.
269
00:14:31,375 --> 00:14:34,545
[Rick] They're side-by-side,
door to door, up high.
270
00:14:34,628 --> 00:14:37,423
[Steve] While all that's going on,
Bell is waving bye.
271
00:14:37,506 --> 00:14:40,759
He's checked out by five car lengths
over this three-wide battle.
272
00:14:40,843 --> 00:14:44,013
They come off the corner,
stacked up behind the leader.
273
00:14:45,139 --> 00:14:48,434
[Dale] The 11 almost hit
the side of the 12 again off of two.
274
00:14:48,517 --> 00:14:50,144
They're upset at each other.
275
00:14:50,227 --> 00:14:53,147
[Denny] My car's faster than his,
so he's fighting
276
00:14:53,230 --> 00:14:57,026
{\an8}to keep it up front as long as he can.
277
00:14:57,109 --> 00:14:59,403
{\an8}He's grinding on my right.
I'm up against him.
278
00:14:59,486 --> 00:15:02,489
[Steve] Hamlin, Blaney
giving each other the business.
279
00:15:02,948 --> 00:15:04,617
[Ryan] Fuck you, dickhead.
280
00:15:05,367 --> 00:15:07,786
[Denny] Neither one of us wanted
to give the spot up.
281
00:15:07,870 --> 00:15:11,790
What do you expect me to do?
I'm trying to race for a Final 4 spot,
282
00:15:12,666 --> 00:15:15,502
but something that was
outta my control happened,
283
00:15:15,586 --> 00:15:18,464
and I feel like if I have
something bad happen,
284
00:15:18,547 --> 00:15:20,841
I want it to be in my control, my fault.
285
00:15:25,095 --> 00:15:28,724
[Steve] Hamlin hits the wall,
and he hits it hard!
286
00:15:28,807 --> 00:15:32,519
He has pancaked the entire
right-side of that machine.
287
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,857
[Denny] Something broke in the steering.
288
00:15:36,941 --> 00:15:39,026
[Chris] We're done, bud.
Good work, everybody.
289
00:15:39,109 --> 00:15:42,446
Great day, great fight.
That's fucking racing.
290
00:15:42,529 --> 00:15:44,239
[Steve] It gets worse for Hamlin.
291
00:15:44,323 --> 00:15:49,453
He has already fallen below the cut line
on the championship points.
292
00:15:51,038 --> 00:15:53,207
[Rick] Twenty-five laps to go.
293
00:15:55,292 --> 00:15:58,212
[Steve] A trip to Phoenix
hangs in the balance.
294
00:15:58,295 --> 00:16:00,506
You can tell it
the way Byron's driving,
295
00:16:00,589 --> 00:16:05,678
{\an8}by the way Bell, Blaney,
everybody that is up for contention,
296
00:16:05,761 --> 00:16:09,056
driving as hard as they possibly can.
297
00:16:10,933 --> 00:16:13,894
{\an8}[Christopher] I believe that
my car is the fastest car.
298
00:16:13,978 --> 00:16:19,149
{\an8}Was able to get some clean air
on the restart, and my car woke up.
299
00:16:19,233 --> 00:16:20,985
[Steve] Now the 20 throttles up.
300
00:16:21,610 --> 00:16:23,946
[Rick] Now for the lead,
Bell on the inside.
301
00:16:25,072 --> 00:16:27,616
Byron gassing it up,
trying to keep momentum
302
00:16:27,700 --> 00:16:30,369
as he goes almost
all the way up to the wall.
303
00:16:30,452 --> 00:16:33,288
[Jeff] In the lead,
Bell pulling away from Byron.
304
00:16:33,372 --> 00:16:34,999
Fourteen laps to go.
305
00:16:35,082 --> 00:16:38,544
[Steve] An hour ago, Bell didn't
think he could run 20th.
306
00:16:38,627 --> 00:16:41,505
[Rick] Christopher Bell
goes down the backstretch
307
00:16:41,588 --> 00:16:44,591
and the 28-year-old
is gonna lock himself
308
00:16:44,675 --> 00:16:47,094
in the Championship 4,
he's won at Miami.
309
00:16:48,137 --> 00:16:49,847
[Christopher] Yes!
310
00:16:50,931 --> 00:16:53,517
[Steve] He needed to win,
and he's done it.
311
00:16:56,979 --> 00:16:59,314
[Adam] That's why you never give up.
Great job.
312
00:16:59,732 --> 00:17:04,319
Way to pull us out a one this weekend.
That's how champions are made.
313
00:17:04,403 --> 00:17:07,823
[Christopher] Thank you, guys.
You guys are amazing.
314
00:17:08,615 --> 00:17:13,579
[Steve] At least one Joe Gibbs Racing
driver will be in the Championship 4.
315
00:17:13,662 --> 00:17:17,041
But, man, what a rough turn
of events for Denny Hamlin.
316
00:17:17,124 --> 00:17:20,085
Hamlin coming into Miami, plus-two,
317
00:17:20,169 --> 00:17:23,297
after Miami, minus-17.
318
00:17:23,380 --> 00:17:25,924
[Mike] Huge disappointment
for Denny Hamlin today.
319
00:17:26,008 --> 00:17:29,720
He's got one more shot next week
to make the Championship.
320
00:17:29,803 --> 00:17:33,348
Shoulder and the heart
about equally broke.
321
00:17:33,432 --> 00:17:36,310
Frustrating because
I feel I'm running well
322
00:17:36,393 --> 00:17:39,146
and doing everything I need to do,
323
00:17:39,229 --> 00:17:42,107
I just can't get the result
I'm looking for.
324
00:17:42,983 --> 00:17:46,236
[Rick] What a day for Blaney.
He's above the cut line now,
325
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,823
but he was in striking distance
of getting the win here.
326
00:17:49,907 --> 00:17:51,408
{\an8}[reporter speaking]
327
00:17:55,662 --> 00:17:58,373
He tried to slide me
and failed miserably,
328
00:17:58,457 --> 00:18:00,250
then decided to juice me up.
329
00:18:00,334 --> 00:18:02,878
If you're gonna slide
somebody, commit.
330
00:18:02,961 --> 00:18:06,757
What did he say, "Hack?"
I think he was that today. So, yeah.
331
00:18:07,591 --> 00:18:12,888
{\an8}Blaney, the one thing for him is
managing the emotions inside the car.
332
00:18:12,971 --> 00:18:17,226
He's a volatile guy.
He's a bit short-tempered.
333
00:18:17,309 --> 00:18:20,020
In these final rounds,
can he let go of that
334
00:18:20,104 --> 00:18:22,272
then go out and make it happen?
335
00:18:22,356 --> 00:18:25,776
I texted Ryan after the race
and said, "You talking shit?"
336
00:18:25,859 --> 00:18:29,822
This is a end-of-the-race
scenario for a final four spot.
337
00:18:29,905 --> 00:18:31,448
Like I don't get it, why,
338
00:18:31,532 --> 00:18:33,534
you know,
everyone's so soft nowadays.
339
00:18:34,243 --> 00:18:38,914
Now it just gives me
a fire to go to Martinsville
340
00:18:38,997 --> 00:18:42,209
and just put a total ass-kicking together
341
00:18:42,292 --> 00:18:45,671
that nobody will be able to overcome.
342
00:18:45,754 --> 00:18:48,298
[Ryan] I have a short fuse
when I have a helmet on,
343
00:18:48,382 --> 00:18:52,469
especially if someone doesn't
think they did anything wrong.
344
00:18:52,553 --> 00:18:54,429
Now I'm going to race you
the same way you raced me.
345
00:18:54,513 --> 00:18:56,765
We're not gonna have
a friendly relationship.
346
00:18:56,849 --> 00:18:58,934
So, it's kind of all situational.
347
00:18:59,977 --> 00:19:02,813
[Mike] Ryan Blaney is
ten points above the cut line.
348
00:19:02,896 --> 00:19:04,565
That's the good news.
349
00:19:04,648 --> 00:19:08,819
But he's never gotten past
this point in the playoffs,
350
00:19:08,902 --> 00:19:10,654
to the Championship 4.
351
00:19:10,737 --> 00:19:15,409
With some momentum, is this
the year he takes the next step?
352
00:19:16,451 --> 00:19:18,495
[Ryan] Wednesdays are the days...
353
00:19:18,579 --> 00:19:21,874
this week's push is a bit later
'cause it's a close race.
354
00:19:21,957 --> 00:19:24,334
We probably won't load up
till Thursday night.
355
00:19:24,418 --> 00:19:26,378
It gives you an extra day
to work on your stuff.
356
00:19:26,461 --> 00:19:29,673
Seeing where Jonathan's
at from where we talked earlier,
357
00:19:29,756 --> 00:19:33,343
what changes we made
and a little bit of strategy talk.
358
00:19:33,427 --> 00:19:37,264
If those opportunities arise,
it depends where you are.
359
00:19:37,347 --> 00:19:39,933
If you can get
five stage points, take them.
360
00:19:40,017 --> 00:19:41,435
Take them, right?
361
00:19:41,518 --> 00:19:44,104
[Jonathan] For me, our personalities
really jibe a lot.
362
00:19:44,188 --> 00:19:47,858
We're pretty calm, cool,
laid-back people.
363
00:19:47,941 --> 00:19:51,028
{\an8}He puts a helmet on
364
00:19:51,111 --> 00:19:53,614
{\an8}and there's no fiercer competitor.
365
00:19:53,697 --> 00:19:55,073
He's out there to win.
366
00:19:55,157 --> 00:19:57,117
He's giving it 110% all the time.
367
00:19:57,201 --> 00:19:59,661
There's no one else I'd rather work with.
368
00:20:00,704 --> 00:20:04,583
{\an8}Hello? Thanks for having me.
I'm well.
369
00:20:04,666 --> 00:20:08,795
{\an8}I appreciate it.
Yeah, it was a good weekend.
370
00:20:10,839 --> 00:20:14,009
It's no secret maybe we didn't
have the speed we wanted
371
00:20:14,092 --> 00:20:17,221
in the summer
months leading to the playoffs,
372
00:20:17,304 --> 00:20:20,557
but I reference this sport
as a big circle.
373
00:20:20,641 --> 00:20:24,186
For a while, you'll be on top.
Everything's working for you.
374
00:20:24,269 --> 00:20:28,023
Your cars are fast.
But sometimes your cars are off
375
00:20:28,106 --> 00:20:30,776
and nothing seems to go your way.
376
00:20:30,859 --> 00:20:34,696
And it's all about like
peaking at the right time. And...
377
00:20:34,780 --> 00:20:38,617
[Roger] Blaney has been a product
of ours since he walked in ten years ago
378
00:20:38,700 --> 00:20:40,661
as a young, skinny kid with his old man.
379
00:20:40,744 --> 00:20:45,415
{\an8}He's been a charger, been fast.
But I think what I've seen
380
00:20:45,499 --> 00:20:48,085
{\an8}in the last few months
is he's really matured.
381
00:20:48,168 --> 00:20:52,464
When I was a kid watching Dad,
that's what you wanna be, right?
382
00:20:52,547 --> 00:20:57,552
You see the champions of the sport,
all these greats, right?
383
00:20:57,636 --> 00:20:59,429
You wanna be that guy.
384
00:20:59,513 --> 00:21:01,765
So that's what you aspire at as a kid.
385
00:21:01,848 --> 00:21:03,809
And we're close to doing it.
386
00:21:03,892 --> 00:21:06,353
Just gotta dig down deep here
the next couple weeks.
387
00:21:07,479 --> 00:21:09,314
-[Mike] Thank you.
-[Ryan] Welcome.
388
00:21:12,776 --> 00:21:15,737
It's the first time
I've seen IROC quarter midgets.
389
00:21:15,821 --> 00:21:18,282
That thing's pretty long.
Like, long as...
390
00:21:18,365 --> 00:21:19,908
[Dave] It wasn't a quarter midget.
391
00:21:19,992 --> 00:21:21,535
-It was something else.
-[Ryan] Really?
392
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,706
{\an8}[producer speaking]
393
00:21:25,789 --> 00:21:27,499
{\an8}I'd say nine or ten.
394
00:21:27,582 --> 00:21:30,836
{\an8}-Nine was when it originally got built.
-Yeah.
395
00:21:31,420 --> 00:21:34,589
[Dave] From the start he was
incredibly fast, incredibly good.
396
00:21:34,673 --> 00:21:38,635
He had the skills, but you never
know if it's gonna happen.
397
00:21:38,719 --> 00:21:41,430
[reporter] Where do you
see him in the next 20 years?
398
00:21:41,513 --> 00:21:45,058
I don't see him anywhere.
It's up to him what he wants to do,
399
00:21:45,142 --> 00:21:49,354
if he's got the desire to keep doing it,
it's up to him.
400
00:21:50,147 --> 00:21:53,650
Yeah, right then it was obvious.
It was obvious to me.
401
00:21:53,734 --> 00:21:56,778
Once he had a little success,
it took off from there.
402
00:21:56,862 --> 00:22:01,366
So, yeah, the teaching days
ended when he was 14, so...
403
00:22:01,450 --> 00:22:04,911
Now it's just pump him up days,
that's all.
404
00:22:06,413 --> 00:22:09,666
He proved himself immediately
in every car he got in.
405
00:22:09,750 --> 00:22:12,377
Every one he wins,
it's another level of confidence.
406
00:22:12,461 --> 00:22:16,423
It keeps going up, and that's
what it takes to get to the top.
407
00:22:16,506 --> 00:22:20,093
[Ryan] Confidence is always great,
and that's what you need.
408
00:22:20,177 --> 00:22:21,511
That makes you better.
409
00:22:21,595 --> 00:22:24,348
That's what makes you
believe you can do it.
410
00:22:24,431 --> 00:22:27,559
Any playoffs in any sport
you've ever watched,
411
00:22:27,642 --> 00:22:30,520
once you get to the playoffs,
anything can happen.
412
00:22:30,604 --> 00:22:34,024
You can get on a hot streak,
you can have not a great year,
413
00:22:34,107 --> 00:22:38,445
but you can find something,
and little confidence boosts,
414
00:22:38,528 --> 00:22:41,907
it fucking propels you
to the stratosphere.
415
00:22:44,993 --> 00:22:47,829
[Rick] ...Wallace come up
and challenge the 20 of Bell,
416
00:22:47,913 --> 00:22:50,624
but Bell has moved
to that second spot,
417
00:22:50,707 --> 00:22:54,044
and now Bubba Wallace on
the inside trying to get third.
418
00:22:54,795 --> 00:22:56,755
{\an8}[William] You're coming to watch with me?
419
00:22:56,838 --> 00:22:58,507
{\an8}You normally just...
[laughs]
420
00:22:58,590 --> 00:23:01,635
{\an8}-What?
-Normally go in the other room
421
00:23:01,718 --> 00:23:03,804
{\an8}-when I start watching.
-No, I don't.
422
00:23:03,887 --> 00:23:06,556
In fairness,
I just watched the whole race.
423
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:07,599
Yep.
424
00:23:08,809 --> 00:23:13,021
I like to watch it
when it's fresh because I like to know
425
00:23:13,105 --> 00:23:16,858
if like what I felt,
is what happened, you know?
426
00:23:17,609 --> 00:23:20,320
[Dale] Looks like William Byron's
got a really fast car taking off,
427
00:23:20,404 --> 00:23:22,781
not quite as good on a long run.
428
00:23:22,864 --> 00:23:25,534
I've thought about what it would
feel like to win a championship.
429
00:23:25,617 --> 00:23:29,413
I dream about that moment,
but I've never had the negative to it:
430
00:23:29,496 --> 00:23:32,791
"What's it gonna be like
if you don't win?"
431
00:23:32,874 --> 00:23:34,543
I don't think like that.
432
00:23:34,626 --> 00:23:38,755
[Rick] William Byron's so good at
sneaking into race-winning potential.
433
00:23:38,839 --> 00:23:40,048
He is right there.
434
00:23:41,258 --> 00:23:44,219
[William] When you go into the playoffs,
the intensity's higher.
435
00:23:44,302 --> 00:23:46,972
In the third round,
you've gotta perform,
436
00:23:47,055 --> 00:23:50,475
in the top five all three races
to be in at Phoenix.
437
00:23:51,101 --> 00:23:52,602
This is my one shot.
438
00:23:53,895 --> 00:23:55,313
As close as I got.
439
00:23:56,898 --> 00:24:00,110
There's obviously
a points path for us to get in,
440
00:24:00,193 --> 00:24:03,405
but I think the best way
for us to advance is to win.
441
00:24:03,488 --> 00:24:06,992
[Rick] Christopher Bell is gonna
lock himself into the Championship 4!
442
00:24:07,075 --> 00:24:08,618
He's won in Miami!
443
00:24:10,245 --> 00:24:12,038
I kind of taste it.
444
00:24:12,122 --> 00:24:13,665
I was like, "Damn."
445
00:24:13,748 --> 00:24:15,083
I can smell it.
446
00:24:15,167 --> 00:24:17,544
[William] I crave that feeling of winning.
447
00:24:17,627 --> 00:24:21,173
It's a sense of relief,
a sense of accomplishment that
448
00:24:21,256 --> 00:24:24,217
you just don't get from anything else.
449
00:24:24,301 --> 00:24:27,679
[Steve] Does it come down
to a Denny Hamlin, Kyle Larson battle?
450
00:24:27,762 --> 00:24:31,349
[Jeff] They're gonna have to figure out
how to beat William Byron.
451
00:24:31,433 --> 00:24:33,977
I am on the William Byron
train right now.
452
00:24:42,486 --> 00:24:47,073
[Steve] It is time to determine who will
be racing for a championship next week.
453
00:24:47,157 --> 00:24:51,161
[Jeff] Everybody's gonna do all they can
to win a grandfather clock trophy.
454
00:24:51,244 --> 00:24:55,123
[Rick] It's gonna take the complete
package here at Martinsville Speedway.
455
00:24:59,252 --> 00:25:01,421
Two drivers have punched their ticket.
456
00:25:01,505 --> 00:25:03,924
They know what they're doing
next Sunday,
457
00:25:04,007 --> 00:25:06,426
and that is to race for a championship.
458
00:25:06,510 --> 00:25:10,263
Six other drivers, two open spots.
How's this gonna play out?
459
00:25:10,347 --> 00:25:12,432
[Jeff] I have no idea.
I'm excited to find out.
460
00:25:18,939 --> 00:25:21,650
[Ryan] We're plus-ten on the cut line,
so we're in.
461
00:25:21,733 --> 00:25:23,777
Definitely not in a comfortable spot.
462
00:25:23,860 --> 00:25:26,488
I mean, ten points can vanish quickly.
463
00:25:26,571 --> 00:25:28,865
Try not to let anything surprise me.
464
00:25:28,949 --> 00:25:33,036
Crazy things can happen,
but I got momentum from last week.
465
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,373
We're the ones they might
need to be worried about.
466
00:25:38,375 --> 00:25:40,794
[Tyler] You're gonna be racing
the best of the best.
467
00:25:40,877 --> 00:25:43,421
We've just gotta make it
outta this round.
468
00:25:44,839 --> 00:25:46,216
[Alexa] There you go.
469
00:25:46,299 --> 00:25:48,301
[Tyler] Personally, yeah, it's stressful.
470
00:25:48,385 --> 00:25:51,638
{\an8}One second's notice
everything can change for you.
471
00:25:52,973 --> 00:25:55,725
{\an8}[Denny] Tyler and myself
are first two guys out
472
00:25:55,809 --> 00:25:58,520
{\an8}that have gotta work
their way back in.
473
00:25:59,729 --> 00:26:02,816
Kind of a feeling that
I've got two chances at it,
474
00:26:02,899 --> 00:26:06,903
you know, between me and him
to try to get into that final fours.
475
00:26:08,530 --> 00:26:12,993
I mean, would I be as happy
if Tyler made it and I didn't?
476
00:26:13,493 --> 00:26:14,619
No.
477
00:26:15,537 --> 00:26:17,247
I'm rooting for myself first.
478
00:26:17,330 --> 00:26:19,082
This is my life work.
479
00:26:19,916 --> 00:26:22,711
{\an8}[producer speaking]
480
00:26:22,794 --> 00:26:25,338
You know, slowly
getting the range back,
481
00:26:25,422 --> 00:26:28,300
the strength's not there,
but it's something I can't
482
00:26:28,383 --> 00:26:30,468
fix until the season's over.
483
00:26:30,552 --> 00:26:33,513
But I can't think of
another track I'd rather be
484
00:26:33,597 --> 00:26:35,807
going to than Martinsville.
485
00:26:35,890 --> 00:26:38,268
[fan] Do my arm.
I'm gonna get it tattooed.
486
00:26:38,351 --> 00:26:40,604
[Denny] Look at the success
we've had there.
487
00:26:40,687 --> 00:26:42,564
This is my wheelhouse.
488
00:26:42,647 --> 00:26:44,816
[PA announcer] Driving number 11,
489
00:26:44,899 --> 00:26:47,277
Denny Hamlin.
490
00:26:54,367 --> 00:26:57,621
-I'm trembling. Can you sign here?
-Absolutely.
491
00:26:57,704 --> 00:27:00,290
We've been waiting since Charlotte,
but it rained out,
492
00:27:00,373 --> 00:27:02,917
and then we went
on our honeymoon on Monday.
493
00:27:03,001 --> 00:27:05,754
You're right here.
You're officiating...
494
00:27:05,837 --> 00:27:07,672
-Are y'all sure?
-Yep, we're sure.
495
00:27:07,756 --> 00:27:11,676
We're so sure.
We just need Denny for the winny.
496
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,429
Denny for the winny, baby.
Let's go, Denny.
497
00:27:15,972 --> 00:27:18,099
-Thank you.
-We love you, brother.
498
00:27:18,183 --> 00:27:19,309
Congrats.
499
00:27:19,392 --> 00:27:21,519
-Thank you so much.
-Congrats, y'all.
500
00:27:21,603 --> 00:27:23,063
Thank you so much.
501
00:27:23,146 --> 00:27:24,731
Ain't nobody better.
502
00:27:24,814 --> 00:27:27,150
Let's... Let's go.
503
00:27:29,069 --> 00:27:32,072
{\an8}You only get so many shots.
504
00:27:32,155 --> 00:27:33,657
{\an8}We only get so many shots.
505
00:27:33,740 --> 00:27:37,744
We will race respectfully,
but we will race hard as fuck.
506
00:27:38,536 --> 00:27:42,582
{\an8}I'm proud of what you've done,
getting yourself in this position.
507
00:27:42,666 --> 00:27:45,126
Y'all have a lot to be
proud of this season.
508
00:27:45,210 --> 00:27:48,046
-It's gonna be a good day.
-I think it's gonna be a good day.
509
00:27:52,509 --> 00:27:56,638
{\an8}-I love you. Good luck.
-Thanks.
510
00:27:56,721 --> 00:27:59,641
{\an8}Be safe. I'm proud of you.
Be Ryan Fucking Blaney.
511
00:27:59,724 --> 00:28:02,727
-I hope you win.
-Thank you.
512
00:28:02,811 --> 00:28:05,605
[Rick] A gorgeous Fall day
in Martinsville, Virginia,
513
00:28:05,689 --> 00:28:07,399
and the fans have showed up.
514
00:28:07,482 --> 00:28:10,318
Sold-out crowd here to see this.
515
00:28:10,402 --> 00:28:11,736
The elimination race.
516
00:28:11,820 --> 00:28:14,823
Only four drivers
after today's race will have
517
00:28:14,906 --> 00:28:16,991
a shot at the championship.
518
00:28:17,075 --> 00:28:21,204
It all comes down to
500 laps here at Martinsville.
519
00:28:21,287 --> 00:28:23,832
[announcer]
Drivers, start your engines!
520
00:28:25,959 --> 00:28:27,794
-[crew chief] You all set?
-[driver] Yes, sir.
521
00:28:27,877 --> 00:28:31,589
[Denny] Everybody have a good day.
Finish her off. I know we can do it.
522
00:28:31,673 --> 00:28:33,550
[Steve] We are under the green flag.
523
00:28:38,096 --> 00:28:41,307
[Rick] Will fight for that second spot
is Denny Hamlin in the 11.
524
00:28:41,391 --> 00:28:42,809
Looking good.
525
00:28:42,892 --> 00:28:45,228
{\an8}[Denny] The shifting was painful.
526
00:28:45,311 --> 00:28:49,107
{\an8}We had to try to do things
with the steering to make it easier.
527
00:28:49,190 --> 00:28:51,151
It was a pain in the ass.
528
00:28:51,234 --> 00:28:52,652
[Steve] Here comes Denny Hamlin!
529
00:28:52,736 --> 00:28:55,864
[Denny] But you know how good your car is.
530
00:28:55,947 --> 00:28:57,073
Gonna have to earn it.
531
00:28:57,157 --> 00:28:59,492
[Steve] He opens the door,
and he'll take the lead away.
532
00:28:59,576 --> 00:29:01,202
[Bubba]
Is anybody coming?
533
00:29:01,286 --> 00:29:02,620
[Bootie] The 12's coming.
534
00:29:02,704 --> 00:29:05,165
[Dale] For this day
to be successful for Blaney,
535
00:29:05,248 --> 00:29:07,834
he needs to continue to
drive through this field.
536
00:29:09,627 --> 00:29:13,089
[Rick] A lot of sheet metal
and contact being exchanged.
537
00:29:13,173 --> 00:29:17,343
So a little shove,
and then the pass was made.
538
00:29:17,427 --> 00:29:20,972
[Mike] Ryan Blaney, who started
this race in eleventh position,
539
00:29:21,055 --> 00:29:25,143
has climbed to seventh,
and he's making a huge push here.
540
00:29:25,226 --> 00:29:27,520
[Rick] Blaney has caught that 5.
541
00:29:27,604 --> 00:29:30,231
Blaney looking very strong already.
542
00:29:31,858 --> 00:29:35,236
[Jeff] Bubba Wallace's teammate,
Tyler Reddick, qualified 19.
543
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,572
Well, he has only gotten up to 18.
544
00:29:37,655 --> 00:29:39,616
[Steve] Tyler Reddick is not happy.
545
00:29:39,699 --> 00:29:43,244
[Jeff] 45 slid all the way through
turns three and four.
546
00:29:43,328 --> 00:29:46,498
[Steve] How patient is
the young man gonna be right now?
547
00:29:47,332 --> 00:29:49,334
[Steve] Tyler Reddick and Eric Jones
548
00:29:49,417 --> 00:29:51,920
are knocking the slobber
out of each other.
549
00:29:52,003 --> 00:29:55,215
They've exchanged everything
but Christmas cards so far.
550
00:29:57,300 --> 00:30:01,387
{\an8}Daddy needs to find that gas pedal.
551
00:30:05,058 --> 00:30:06,559
{\an8}[Denny] You're leading the race,
552
00:30:06,643 --> 00:30:09,771
{\an8}and you know the only thing
that can end your race
553
00:30:09,854 --> 00:30:11,648
is getting caught up
in someone else's mess.
554
00:30:11,731 --> 00:30:13,149
You have to tread lightly.
555
00:30:13,233 --> 00:30:16,569
[Steve] Black cars tangled right
in front of Denny Hamlin.
556
00:30:19,823 --> 00:30:22,617
That was as close a call
as you'll ever wanna see
557
00:30:22,700 --> 00:30:25,328
for a leader trying
to dodge the lap traffic.
558
00:30:25,411 --> 00:30:27,205
[driver] I don't know what
I'm supposed to do now.
559
00:30:27,288 --> 00:30:28,498
[Denny] I had a front-row seat.
560
00:30:28,581 --> 00:30:30,583
You had one guy trying to
knock the other out of the way,
561
00:30:30,667 --> 00:30:33,044
but then the guy who got knocked
outta the way said, "Fuck you."
562
00:30:33,127 --> 00:30:36,297
It's a bit of catching your breath
in those moments for sure.
563
00:30:36,381 --> 00:30:38,675
[Rick] Green flag.
Hamlin on the inside,
564
00:30:38,758 --> 00:30:42,095
Blaney on the outside,
and we're underway.
565
00:30:44,138 --> 00:30:46,850
Denny's gonna get the lead yet again.
566
00:30:46,933 --> 00:30:49,060
[Steve] Tremendous break for Hamlin.
He'll get away.
567
00:30:49,143 --> 00:30:51,187
Denny Hamlin's out in front.
568
00:30:51,271 --> 00:30:54,691
He has already led
113 laps today at Martinsville.
569
00:30:54,774 --> 00:30:58,903
[Denny] There's an extra fire in your gut,
something extra you dig out
570
00:30:58,987 --> 00:31:02,782
and get to raise your game
when it really counts.
571
00:31:04,242 --> 00:31:07,495
The 12 second.
Keeping the 12 behind us.
572
00:31:07,579 --> 00:31:08,580
That's composure.
573
00:31:09,330 --> 00:31:10,707
Four-hundred stick.
574
00:31:14,752 --> 00:31:15,962
[Steve] Here comes Blaney.
575
00:31:16,045 --> 00:31:18,256
[Jeff] Ryan Blaney
driving for Team Penske.
576
00:31:18,339 --> 00:31:21,509
He's all over the back bumper now
with race leader Denny Hamlin.
577
00:31:21,593 --> 00:31:23,803
[Rick] Fight is on between the 11 and 12.
578
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,683
Blaney takes the high entry
into turn number one.
579
00:31:28,766 --> 00:31:30,727
He's gonna try it the long way around.
580
00:31:31,603 --> 00:31:34,689
[Denny] The bottom is
the preferred lane in Martinsville.
581
00:31:34,772 --> 00:31:39,402
When you get past on the outside
of Martinsville, it's a kick in the dick.
582
00:31:39,485 --> 00:31:41,112
Your superpowers are taken away.
583
00:31:41,195 --> 00:31:43,489
[Rick] Blaney's gonna take the lead away.
584
00:31:43,573 --> 00:31:45,909
[Steve] You can do all kinds of work
with the math.
585
00:31:45,992 --> 00:31:47,619
You can twist the numbers,
586
00:31:47,702 --> 00:31:50,663
but it's simple
for Ryan Blaney at this point.
587
00:31:50,747 --> 00:31:54,792
He's in the lead, and if he can
hold it and finish first, he's in.
588
00:31:54,876 --> 00:31:56,669
{\an8}[Ryan] I felt confident we had
a shot to win it.
589
00:31:56,753 --> 00:31:59,297
{\an8}Good about where your car's at,
but you still have to put together
590
00:31:59,380 --> 00:32:01,215
500 laps on that place,
which is hard to do.
591
00:32:01,299 --> 00:32:03,092
One mistake ruins your race.
592
00:32:03,176 --> 00:32:06,971
[Steve] Meanwhile, Denny Hamlin
and William Byron are tied.
593
00:32:07,055 --> 00:32:09,390
Do not mistake that as a lock for Byron.
594
00:32:09,474 --> 00:32:11,517
This has not been his day.
595
00:32:13,186 --> 00:32:16,940
{\an8}[Denny] I shifted my focus
to thinking that we had to win.
596
00:32:17,690 --> 00:32:20,026
[Jeff] Blaney by maybe
half a car length on the inside.
597
00:32:20,109 --> 00:32:22,904
Hamlin's gonna duck to the bottom.
He gets into Blaney.
598
00:32:22,987 --> 00:32:24,113
[Rick] Contact is made.
599
00:32:24,197 --> 00:32:27,659
Blaney fishtails three, four times
getting into the corner.
600
00:32:27,742 --> 00:32:30,495
[Denny] I see the 12 wiggling
in front of me.
601
00:32:30,578 --> 00:32:33,790
What that tells me is that,
"Okay, he's vulnerable."
602
00:32:33,873 --> 00:32:36,042
[Rick] Hamlin already roughing him up.
603
00:32:36,125 --> 00:32:38,586
[Denny] You know
that's my opportunity to pounce.
604
00:32:38,670 --> 00:32:41,339
[Rick] Denny Hamlin will take advantage
to jump to the bottom.
605
00:32:41,422 --> 00:32:43,508
[Ryan] Well, shit. That was not helpful.
606
00:32:43,591 --> 00:32:45,093
[Rick] Blaney, though,
is gonna power back
607
00:32:45,176 --> 00:32:47,261
around the outside,
and he'll take the lead.
608
00:32:47,345 --> 00:32:49,681
[Denny] Fucking 12 tried to break down
the backstretch
609
00:32:49,764 --> 00:32:51,391
to keep me on the outside.
610
00:32:51,474 --> 00:32:55,645
[Dale] Denny was trying to get in behind
the 12 and just misjudged it.
611
00:32:55,728 --> 00:32:58,523
{\an8}[Ryan] That was a close moment.
I thought the worst at that time.
612
00:33:00,274 --> 00:33:03,403
[Denny] He wants to play games,
we can play games.
613
00:33:03,486 --> 00:33:06,531
[Ryan] Caught me right when I shifted.
Kind of scared the shit outta me.
614
00:33:08,116 --> 00:33:11,619
[Steve] Right now, Denny Hamlin's
got a bigger problem, and that's Ty Gibbs.
615
00:33:11,703 --> 00:33:14,789
Gibbs is all over his bumper.
Oh, he gets hit by Joey Logano!
616
00:33:14,872 --> 00:33:16,332
He checks up going into the corner
617
00:33:16,416 --> 00:33:18,751
and around goes Gibbs,
and he gets labeled.
618
00:33:18,835 --> 00:33:20,503
Daniel Suarez slams into him.
619
00:33:20,586 --> 00:33:22,672
Everybody else scatters.
620
00:33:22,755 --> 00:33:26,092
[Mike] And William Byron barely avoids
getting caught up in that crash.
621
00:33:26,175 --> 00:33:28,928
If William had gotten
caught up in that,
622
00:33:29,012 --> 00:33:30,471
roles would've been reversed,
623
00:33:30,555 --> 00:33:32,724
and Denny Hamlin would've
been in the catbird seat.
624
00:33:32,807 --> 00:33:36,853
[Rick] Joey Logano just tattooed
the rear bumper of Ty Gibb.
625
00:33:36,936 --> 00:33:38,813
[crew member] Be smart. Be smart.
626
00:33:38,896 --> 00:33:42,358
[Denny] Fucking Joey.
He's such a piece-of-shit human.
627
00:33:42,442 --> 00:33:43,735
[Rick] Green flag is out.
628
00:33:43,818 --> 00:33:47,238
Denny Hamlin, he'll start outside row one,
Blaney on the inside.
629
00:33:47,321 --> 00:33:49,282
[Steve] These two have
had a spectacular battle
630
00:33:49,365 --> 00:33:51,117
for the lead at various
times this afternoon.
631
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:52,744
We'll see if they
have another one here.
632
00:33:52,827 --> 00:33:54,829
[Jeff] Ryan Blaney
will clear Denny Hamlin.
633
00:33:56,039 --> 00:34:00,543
[Rick] Tyler Reddick in the best position
that he's been in all day long.
634
00:34:00,626 --> 00:34:02,628
Right now, Reddick running eight.
635
00:34:02,712 --> 00:34:04,964
[Steve] Still in a must-win situation.
636
00:34:06,007 --> 00:34:08,885
I just wish I could shake him
637
00:34:08,968 --> 00:34:10,595
because I want to be like,
638
00:34:10,678 --> 00:34:13,181
"Just fucking drive through him."
639
00:34:13,264 --> 00:34:14,557
Drive through him.
640
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:18,061
Like do what you need to do.
Stop being so nice.
641
00:34:18,144 --> 00:34:19,479
[Tyler] Been struggling...
642
00:34:19,562 --> 00:34:22,690
the damn car is just kind
of doing that same shit.
643
00:34:22,774 --> 00:34:24,942
[Mike] It's been one of
those days for Tyler Reddick.
644
00:34:25,026 --> 00:34:27,445
He cannot find a path to the front.
645
00:34:27,528 --> 00:34:31,949
His championship dreams are
slipping away one lap at a time.
646
00:34:32,033 --> 00:34:33,826
And by the way,
speaking of rough days,
647
00:34:33,910 --> 00:34:36,496
William Byron isn't having
the best of days either.
648
00:34:36,579 --> 00:34:39,207
He's clinging onto
that last playoff spot,
649
00:34:39,290 --> 00:34:41,751
but he is dealing with
some horrendous conditions
650
00:34:41,834 --> 00:34:43,544
inside of that race car right now.
651
00:34:43,628 --> 00:34:44,712
{\an8}[William] It is so hot.
652
00:34:44,796 --> 00:34:46,881
{\an8}I don't know why our car
is so hot around other cars.
653
00:34:46,964 --> 00:34:48,716
{\an8}It's ridiculous.
654
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,718
[Steve] This place
is brutal when it's hot.
655
00:34:50,802 --> 00:34:53,930
[William] The exhaust in the fumes
around the car were
656
00:34:54,013 --> 00:34:55,598
creating a pretty bad situation for us.
657
00:34:55,681 --> 00:34:57,934
And on top of that,
the helmet fan wasn't working.
658
00:34:58,017 --> 00:35:00,520
[Steve] William Byron especially said
when he's beside a car,
659
00:35:00,603 --> 00:35:02,688
it is so hot in his race car.
660
00:35:02,772 --> 00:35:05,316
[William] The heat inside the helmet
is blowing hot air
661
00:35:05,399 --> 00:35:07,276
and really feels like a blow dryer.
662
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,822
It fricking sucks, but just
fight your ass off for me.
663
00:35:10,905 --> 00:35:14,534
[Rick] Every spot on the racetrack
now is worth a point.
664
00:35:14,617 --> 00:35:18,287
William Byron has had a long,
long afternoon.
665
00:35:18,371 --> 00:35:21,040
[Steve] It's been pretty much miserable
from start to finish.
666
00:35:21,124 --> 00:35:23,918
We gotta finish in this spot
no matter what.
667
00:35:24,001 --> 00:35:26,003
[William] If he's leading,
what's the situation?
668
00:35:26,087 --> 00:35:28,256
We're still plus-three,
but he can go four.
669
00:35:28,339 --> 00:35:33,344
[William] As hot as it was in the car,
it was just not worth giving up.
670
00:35:34,804 --> 00:35:36,973
[Steve] Time is running out
for Denny Hamlin.
671
00:35:37,056 --> 00:35:39,767
Every lap that passes,
a shot at the Championship 4
672
00:35:39,851 --> 00:35:41,310
is fading just a bit more.
673
00:35:42,436 --> 00:35:45,022
Blaney and that team are doing
what they have to do.
674
00:35:45,106 --> 00:35:47,483
They're driving away with this thing.
675
00:35:47,567 --> 00:35:49,360
[Rick] Twenty-two to go.
676
00:35:49,443 --> 00:35:53,906
{\an8}[Gianna] Very nerve-wracking
going through all of the emotions,
677
00:35:53,990 --> 00:35:56,659
the ups, and the downs,
and the nervousness.
678
00:35:58,619 --> 00:36:00,621
[Steve] It's still now a points
battle between Byron
679
00:36:00,705 --> 00:36:02,707
and Hamlin for that final spot.
680
00:36:02,790 --> 00:36:06,169
[Rick] Hamlin can't get enough points
unless he wins this race.
681
00:36:06,252 --> 00:36:09,630
It has to be Byron falling back
for Hamlin to be able
682
00:36:09,714 --> 00:36:11,549
to advance based on points.
683
00:36:11,632 --> 00:36:13,342
[Steve] I mean,
they're on pins and needles.
684
00:36:13,426 --> 00:36:15,553
They are driving around on ice.
685
00:36:15,636 --> 00:36:18,264
[Rick] Digging deep for everything
they could get right now,
686
00:36:18,347 --> 00:36:21,309
trying to muscle these cars
around this half-mile.
687
00:36:21,392 --> 00:36:22,810
[Steve] Three points is what separates
688
00:36:22,894 --> 00:36:25,646
the 24 and the 11
from a Championship 4 run.
689
00:36:25,730 --> 00:36:27,815
[Jeff] This is getting very tense.
690
00:36:27,899 --> 00:36:30,193
[Rick] Byron just lost the spot.
691
00:36:30,276 --> 00:36:32,945
Denny Hamlin just picked up a spot.
692
00:36:33,029 --> 00:36:35,990
[Rick] White flag
is in the air for Ryan Blaney.
693
00:36:36,073 --> 00:36:37,617
One lap to go.
694
00:36:37,700 --> 00:36:38,784
[Jonathan] White flag.
695
00:36:38,868 --> 00:36:41,412
So 3 in front, 15 back of the 10.
Don't have to force it.
696
00:36:41,495 --> 00:36:42,830
Coming back to the checkers.
697
00:36:42,914 --> 00:36:46,375
[Rick] To the back straightaway.
He's got a playoff first
698
00:36:46,459 --> 00:36:48,878
and a Championship 4 run in hand.
699
00:36:48,961 --> 00:36:51,339
Into turn three for the final time.
700
00:36:51,422 --> 00:36:52,381
It's Ryan Blaney.
701
00:36:52,465 --> 00:36:54,258
[Jeff] To the bottom
of a racetrack off turn four.
702
00:36:54,342 --> 00:36:56,219
Checkered flag is out.
703
00:36:56,302 --> 00:36:59,639
[Rick] Ryan Blaney wins in Martinsville.
704
00:36:59,722 --> 00:37:03,768
[Ryan] Yeah, baby, let's go, fellas!
Let's go!
705
00:37:03,851 --> 00:37:07,396
[Rick] Joining Ryan Blaney
of course will be Christopher Bell
706
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:08,773
and Kyle Larson
707
00:37:08,856 --> 00:37:12,276
and by eight points
over Denny Hamlin,
708
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,613
William Byron will join the other three
709
00:37:15,696 --> 00:37:18,324
and race for a championship next week.
710
00:37:25,456 --> 00:37:27,708
[Ryan] It's all about peaking
at the right time.
711
00:37:27,792 --> 00:37:32,255
It happens in every single sport...
and that's what we're doing right now.
712
00:37:34,674 --> 00:37:36,425
I just wanna attack him.
713
00:37:40,471 --> 00:37:41,597
I'm so proud of you.
714
00:37:42,807 --> 00:37:44,392
I'm so proud of you.
715
00:37:47,728 --> 00:37:49,021
[Chris] Way to fight, man.
716
00:37:49,730 --> 00:37:51,315
Yeah, good work.
717
00:37:51,399 --> 00:37:52,942
Finished third there.
718
00:37:53,025 --> 00:37:55,611
Yet another year we should
have made it, and didn't.
719
00:37:56,654 --> 00:37:57,697
[Mike] We're here again.
720
00:37:57,780 --> 00:37:59,865
Denny Hamlin falling short of
721
00:37:59,949 --> 00:38:03,536
that opportunity to become
a NASCAR Cup Series champion.
722
00:38:03,619 --> 00:38:06,622
[Denny] What else am I supposed to do?
I drove as good as I could.
723
00:38:06,706 --> 00:38:08,749
There's...
I can't second-guess anything
724
00:38:08,833 --> 00:38:10,376
that I did on the track today.
725
00:38:10,459 --> 00:38:13,296
Us and the 12 are just
better than everyone else.
726
00:38:13,379 --> 00:38:16,424
That was the one car
we didn't need to be outstanding,
727
00:38:16,507 --> 00:38:18,342
and they were,
and they deserved it.
728
00:38:18,426 --> 00:38:20,303
-Yeah.
-Appreciate you.
729
00:38:20,386 --> 00:38:22,263
-Yeah, you too.
-Yeah.
730
00:38:22,346 --> 00:38:23,931
They can do whatever they want.
731
00:38:24,015 --> 00:38:26,225
You and I will do it
until we're done doing.
732
00:38:27,101 --> 00:38:30,855
[Denny] I can't draw any conclusions
of why year after year
733
00:38:30,938 --> 00:38:32,940
things out of my control
have happened
734
00:38:33,024 --> 00:38:36,485
that has taken us
from in control to out of it.
735
00:38:36,569 --> 00:38:38,571
It's just been bad luck, honestly.
736
00:38:38,654 --> 00:38:40,448
I am the black cat of death.
737
00:38:41,115 --> 00:38:42,658
I'm fucking cursed.
738
00:38:42,742 --> 00:38:46,370
[Mike] And edging out Denny Hamlin
somehow, some way,
739
00:38:46,454 --> 00:38:48,914
in a car that must have felt
like a furnace,
740
00:38:48,998 --> 00:38:50,333
William Byron hangs on.
741
00:38:50,416 --> 00:38:53,044
He will indeed race
for a championship next week.
742
00:38:53,127 --> 00:38:54,628
[Jeff] Holy cow, buddy.
743
00:38:54,712 --> 00:38:56,797
Let's get all the stress
outta the way this weekend.
744
00:38:57,965 --> 00:38:59,383
{\an8}That's awesome.
745
00:39:00,509 --> 00:39:02,553
{\an8}-Good job.
-I told you it wasn't easy.
746
00:39:03,137 --> 00:39:06,932
[William] My heart rate on my watch
after the race is 189.
747
00:39:07,016 --> 00:39:09,101
You know, that wasn't
a good situation.
748
00:39:09,185 --> 00:39:11,228
That was the worst race of my life,
but the best result.
749
00:39:11,312 --> 00:39:12,897
-I know.
-I've never been that hot.
750
00:39:12,980 --> 00:39:14,023
I was gonna pass out.
751
00:39:15,107 --> 00:39:16,859
Hey, thanks, babe.
752
00:39:16,942 --> 00:39:19,487
When you get to the playoffs,
guys step their game up.
753
00:39:19,570 --> 00:39:21,197
We've gotta do the same thing.
754
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:22,823
It's not supposed to
be that hard, man.
755
00:39:22,907 --> 00:39:24,658
-Good job.
-Thank you. Appreciate you.
756
00:39:24,742 --> 00:39:26,118
-Proud of you guys.
-Thank you.
757
00:39:26,202 --> 00:39:29,705
If we bring what we've brought
at certain points of the season,
758
00:39:29,789 --> 00:39:31,916
I think we'll win the championship.
759
00:39:31,999 --> 00:39:33,501
We knew what to...
760
00:39:33,584 --> 00:39:35,795
Hey, buddy, thanks.
Appreciate it.
761
00:39:35,878 --> 00:39:37,171
Yeah, thank you.
762
00:39:38,756 --> 00:39:40,049
We knew...
763
00:39:41,300 --> 00:39:42,760
I don't know what I was saying.
764
00:39:42,843 --> 00:39:45,179
-What were you asking me?
-How difficult it was this weekend.
765
00:39:45,262 --> 00:39:48,808
[Kyle] My mind is already
switched over to the next race.
766
00:39:48,891 --> 00:39:52,061
I would love to keep
stacking championships, you know.
767
00:39:52,144 --> 00:39:53,687
It's gonna be a tough race,
768
00:39:53,771 --> 00:39:57,108
and these guys
are all really tough competitors.
769
00:39:57,191 --> 00:40:00,236
{\an8}[producer speaking]
770
00:40:00,319 --> 00:40:04,365
{\an8}Absolutely. I definitely think
that people underestimate me.
771
00:40:04,448 --> 00:40:06,826
I like it.
I like proving people wrong.
772
00:40:06,909 --> 00:40:08,786
I certainly like
proving people wrong.

00:40:11,831 --> 00:40:13,374
-Congrats, man.
-Appreciate that.
774
00:40:13,457 --> 00:40:14,500
-Yeah.
-You did good.
775
00:40:14,583 --> 00:40:15,751
Yeah, thank you.

00:41:56,769 --> 00:42:01,649
But now that they're invested,
and understand what's going on,
815
00:42:01,732 --> 00:42:03,734
and they know how hard Dad works at it,
816
00:42:03,817 --> 00:42:05,736
they understand that
this is my life's work.
817
00:42:05,819 --> 00:42:08,822
I'm trying to get to the peak
818
00:42:08,906 --> 00:42:11,575
and the pinnacle of my profession.

[Denny] I remember Michael
saying to my dad,
825
00:42:32,972 --> 00:42:34,473
"When your son wins
the championship,
826
00:42:34,557 --> 00:42:37,393
we'll crack open that cigar case
and we'll smoke it together."
827
00:42:37,476 --> 00:42:40,604
I hope my dad's health hangs
in there long enough for him
828
00:42:40,688 --> 00:42:42,231
to be able to experience that.
829
00:42:42,314 --> 00:42:45,025
Because I'd love to see the excitement
on my dad's face
830
00:42:45,109 --> 00:42:47,611
if he gets to break open
that case with Michael.
831
00:42:51,907 --> 00:42:53,492
[Joey] Blaney!
You're the fucking man!
832
00:42:53,576 --> 00:42:54,702
-Thanks, bro.
-Good job.
833
00:42:54,785 --> 00:42:56,120
Thanks. Appreciate it.
834
00:42:56,203 --> 00:42:57,830
[Ryan] My main focus right now is,
835
00:42:57,913 --> 00:43:00,624
is how do we repeat this in seven days,
836
00:43:00,708 --> 00:43:02,668
and then we can let loose a little bit.
837
00:43:03,586 --> 00:43:05,254
How do you measure success?
838
00:43:06,714 --> 00:43:08,173
Personal perspective,
839
00:43:08,257 --> 00:43:11,468
is it 70 wins and no championships,
840
00:43:11,552 --> 00:43:15,389
or 15 wins and two championships.
841
00:43:15,472 --> 00:43:17,850
I'd probably take the championships
if I had to pick.
842
00:43:18,559 --> 00:43:21,061
[Mike] And then there were four.
What a race it will be
843
00:43:21,145 --> 00:43:24,148
when NASCAR's Championship
wraps up in Phoenix.
