Joey Logano, Daniel Suarez caught up in NASCAR Cup Pocono restart wreck | Motorsports on NBC

E STRATEGIES WORK. >> SMALL DETAILS. SMALL EXECUTION. >> THIS IT IS A FAMILIAR SITE. WILLIAM BYRON, LARSON ON THE OUTSIDE OR VICE VERSA. AS WE SEE THE 24 AND 5 GETTING THE GREEN FLAG. ONCE AGAIN, AS KYLE PETTY MENTIONED, THEY’RE FANNING OUT. THREE, FOUR, FIVE WIDE. >> CONTACT MADE. >> 22 LOGANO AROUND. >> 99. >> BACKWARDS. >> SUAREZ IN THE WALL. >> THAT IS HUGE FOR SUAREZ. >> TALKING ABOUT THIS TIGHT POINT BATTLE. >> THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH STARTING BACK MID PACK. JOEY LOGANO WON STAGE 1. REMEMBER, ONLY ONE STAGE ONE WINNER HAS FINISHED

IN THE TOP FIVE TWO OF THE LAST EIGHT RACES. TWO OF THE LAST EIGHT RACES. STAGE ONE WINNERS. THAT’S THE DANGER AND GETTING THOSE POINTS AND THEN GETTING MID PACK. >> LOOK AT ALL OF THE DAMAGE TO SUAREZ’S 99 MACHINE. >> THINK ABOUT ALL OF THE ADJUSTMENTS AND CHANGES TO THESE CARS THAT NASCAR MADE TO ALLOW THEM TO ABSORB THESE HITS. THIS IS THE RAMIFICATIONS. IT ABSORBS A LOT OF ENERGY THAT THE DRIVER DOES NOT BUT THE DAMAGE MUCH MORE SEVERE IN THESE IMPACTS, THESE WRECKS THAN WE’VE SEEN IN THE PAST. >> I’M GREAT WITH

IT. I’D MUCH RATHER HAVE THE CAR AS SAFE AS POSSIBLE. YOU KNOW, PEOPLE HATE THIS CLICHE. YOU DON’T BUILD THEM TO WRECK

AND RACE. THE 22 ON THE OTHER HAND, IT DIDN’T LOOK LIKE HE WAS DAMAGED TOO MUCH. IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S STUCK WITH FOUR FLAT. >> FOUR FLAT. >> NEED A TOW TRUCK QUICK. >> THEY’RE GOING TO PUSH HIM AROUND TO HIS PIT STOP. LET HIM PUT TIRES ON IT. THEY’RE NOT GOING TO REMOVE HIM FROM THE RACE WITH THE AMR SAFETY TEAM THERE. ON TRACK TO HELP HIM. HE’S DEFINITELY GOING TO LOSE A

LAP OR TWO. >> SEE WHAT HAPPENED TO START ALL OF THIS. HERE’S JOEY LOGANO IN THE OUTSIDE LANE. THIS IS THE BOTTOM. >> HE CAME DOWN ON HIM. COULDN’T QUITE MAKE OUT WHO THAT WAS. >> THERE IT IS. THE 45 OF REDDICK IS ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE 22. THE 22 IS GETTING SHOVED AROUND. HE HAS SOME CONTROL BUT WHEN YOU’RE GETTING PUSHED THAT MUCH, JEFF, YOU KIND OF ARE BEING STEERED BY THE CAR BEHIND HIM. THE 45 CAR OF REDDICK TURNS HIM AROUND. >> I ALWAYS WANT TO KNOW, WHEN YOU GO DOWN THE INTERSTATE,

YOU HAVE BLIND SPOTS. THAT’S WITH SIDE MIRRORS. THESE GUYS HOW WELL DEFINED IS LANE ONE, TWO, THREE, JEFF? >> NOT VERY WELL. SUAREZ, THERE’S THE CONTACT RIGHT THERE. HE JUST WAS UNDERNEATH SOME OTHER CARS. THEY CAME DOWN ON HIM. JUST NOTHING HE COULD DO. >> ONE OF THOSE IS BUBBA WALLACE. WE’RE GOING TO RIDE ON BOARD WITH HIM. LOOK AT THE LEFT SIDE OF YOUR SCREEN. HE HITS THE RIGHT REAR QUARTER PANEL. HE DROVE DOWN INTO THE RIGHT REAR QUARTER PANEL BY ANOTHER CAR. >> THAT CAR WAS MICHAEL McDOWELL. SO YOU WONDER IF HE’S GOT

DAMAGE. AGAIN, ANOTHER ONE OF THE GUYS IN THE POINTS TRYING TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS. SUAREZ CAR, IT’S A LOT OF DAMAGE. YOU MENTIONED LOGANO MAYBE NOT HAVING AS MUCH DAMAGE. HE WILL GO MULTIPLE LAPS DOWN THOUGH TRYING TO GET HIM TO PIT ROAD. AND ON TOP OF THAT, GETTING THE CAR BACK TO PIT ROAD DAMAGES ALL OF THE UNDERBODY. >> RIGHT. >> AND THE CAR MANY TIMES DOES NOT PERFORM AS WELL AFTER THAT. >> I’LL BE SURPRISED IF THE CAR DRIVES AS GOOD AS IT DID ALL DAY LONG AFTER DRAGGING THAT STUFF OFF. EVEN A

THOUSANDTH OF AN INCH CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN HOW MUCH THAT — YOU KNOW, THAT CAR LOSES
