Is it just me or did we see Tony not run for the win yesterday? I'm not saying that he should have wrecked his team mate for the win or driven stupid to get the victory but I didn't tune in to watch a parade, I tuned in to watch a race and we did not get that. I have been a huge Stewart fan for years and he is the last guy I would ever expect to have a shot at a win and not take it. If Tony is content to run second I don't think we need to hear much from him.
Tony had no intention of winning that race.

question...what woulda happened if it was tony if first...and kyle in second? How would Kyle have raced? Maybe tony shoulda thought about that for abit. U know Kyle woulda done anything to win.

I think Tony wanted the win as much as every driver did, but you have to have the car to do it. I didn't see the restart but it sounded like he didn't have a good a restart either.
I do not think that is the case at all. So...what ur saying is tony figure Kyle already had 7 wins...so he might as well have 8 and leave himself at 0? I dont think so. Maybe he didnt have the car to win, which is probly it, but no way he backed off to let Kyle win...and if that is the case...then Tony needs to step up and be a man and try to win instead of helping Kyle (his teammate who is already sucking up all the glory)! Srry SF, but I had to say it.

I looked to me like Tony was just laying back keeping Ambrose off of Kyle.
Or maybe Kyle just got a great restart off of Stewart, which, you know has happened a couple of times this year (think behind Johnson a few weeks ago?) Kyle has proven that this year he has the restart game DOWN.
Tony is a racer, he's on the longest dry spell of his long career, if he thought he had a better car than Kyle he would have gone for it. To think otherwise is to really not know Tony very well...

At least in my own case I didn't say Tony didn't even try to win. BUT he did hold off Ambrose and everyone else for that matter, and who favored? Kyle did. Tony didn't have the car (at least we think it was the car) to catch Kyle, but I believe Ambrose did. Ambrose was really clean about it.
I watched a interview with stewart, and even though he tried to seem proud of Kyle, I think he believes he is getting left out! You barely here stewarts name anymore, and hardly Dennys either. Its always all about Kyle, and possibly not only his teammates, but posibly everyone is getting alittle upset! Kyle is a good driver, and they all know that, but their are other people out their getting solid top 10s everyweek, but its still about Kyle. My question...why do the winners always get all the credit, and the people who get maybe...a 4th str8 top 10 finish hardly get talked about? Even in the past years...not only the winners, but the others with solid finishes each week were talked about...so what makes Kyle so special? They seem to only focus on the most popular drivers...jr had a horrible season last year with all the blowups, and after signing with hendricks, he was talked about for the rest of year, but Mark signed with hendricks for next year...they are hardly talking about that. So why do they focus on certain drivers more then others?
Kyle is getting so much attention because he is having a record setting season. It's not any worse than Gordon and Johnson last year. They got all the attention because they WON. The guys that finished behind them were side-notes, just as they are this year.
Nascar is about WINNING. If you're not in victory circle, you're a loser in this sport. That's the way it's always been and that's the way it will always be.
In regards to Jr vs Martin, Jr has a much larger fan base than Martin thus more coverage. Jr always gets coverage whether his performance deserves it or not (usually the latter). TV coverage is all about ratings, so focusing on drivers that more people like (or really hate for that matter, aka Kyle Busch) helps to pull in ratings.
