NASCAR Sprint Cup - race in Las Vegas 2008

Clock 02:19: Edwards wins at the end safely before Junior, Harvick and Biffle. His second victory in a row and he also takes the lead in the championship. Gordon has not yet interviewed briefly, he is ok but complains that it strongly on the inside of the track needs a safer wall. That could have gone really well different.

That was it for today - analysis coming tomorrow. I hope it was just as exciting for you as for me! Next week we go to Atlanta. Since I'm on the road, there is probably no live blogging. Information about the race will be found but right in the chat!

02:14 clock: Restart! Junior comes off better. Stay tuned from Edwards. But coming from behind and Biffle, who is junior to the bumper. Edwards goes away again. Last round. Biffle tried everything. It is in turn three, he slipped out a little and save just like that! Edwards wins!

02:12 clock: Now put the car back slowly. No Green / White / Checkered. It's probably only two rounds.

02:10 Clock: There is still tidy. That shows how much it has dismantled the car of Jeff Gordon. There was not much left front.

02:02 Clock: Still will not run, the cars are on the line and wait for the restart.

01:59 Clock: The Clock are still four rounds. This will be a shootout at the end. Nor is cleaned up. And just as the ausieht, what it takes to even.

01:57 Clock: Race is completely broken, because the track will be made ​​only once clean. Gordon has mighty lucky. He has taken sides with the front end. One meter further back, and it would have been the driver's door.

01:55 Clock: Because Junior was started so badly, flew past Gordon and Kenseth. Gordon slipped out at the end of turn two and something touched Kenseth. Both revolve, sliding across the infield Gordon into the wall. He rips apart the front half-car, the cooler is flying on the route. Gordon is ok! That was a very hard strike and down there is no safer wall.

01:51 clock: Restart Edwards comes off well, Junior has a lousy Restart.BÖSER ACCIDENT Gordon YELLOW!!!

01:46 clock: Kurt Busch is flying after a tire blow hard into the wall. The accident looked like a copy as that of Stewart. Bush but rises rapidly and seems to be ok. This is an interesting restart, because now the lapped back and it starts in one line. It would surprise me, but when Junior comes over to Edwards.

Clock 01:43: Edwards has responded .... YELLOW!!

Clock 01:40: Edwards leads by 1.5 seconds ahead of Kenseth. Junior is finally passed Kenseth. The rest is still slower than the three leaders. Where Junior is now over, it is still exciting times. Yet 14 laps, but Junior is back 2 seconds.

01:37: Positions. Edwards, Kenseth, Junior, Gordon, Harvick, Biffle, Burton, Kahne, Martin, Ragan, Hamlin, Kvapil, Kyle Busch, Truex, Kurt Busch 21 laps yet.

01:35 clock: Kenseth is much slower. Junior is already on his bumper, but Edwards is significantly faster than both drivers behind him.

01:34 clock: The Fords go flying. Kenseth is a bit too high in Turn 3, Edwards flies. Junior is now no longer so far away. However, he complains about lack of grip. Only 27 laps.

01:32 clock: Restart Next go!. It is now more hectic at the top and it would surprise me if that's just been the last Caution. Kenseth on the front before Edwards, Jr. and Gordon.

01:28 clock:! YELLOW Dale Jarrett spins in Turn 2 and hits backwards into the wall. Gilliland missed him extremely scarce, then other drivers, as Jarrett slips down.

01:25 clock: Only 40 rounds. Looks at the moment is not as if anyone could jeopardize the two Fords at the top. One eye, one should have to Kahne, who had been overtaken and now ranks number six.

01:23 clock: Restart! Positions: Kenseth, Edwards, Jr., Gordon, Harvick, Biffle, Burton, Kahne

01:21 clock: Mears sends Vickers into a spin. Coming back onto the track and Mike Skinner missed him by millimeters. Nothing happened. Vickers has not touched the wall.

01:20 clock: Positions: Kenseth, Edwards, Junior ..... YELLOW!!

01:17 clock: Restart Edwards was not punished. Kenseth leads before Junior, who is doing well. The two put away, and once again benefit from the lapped traffic jam behind them.

01:16 Clock: It checks to see whether this really the fault of the crew who was 99, because there was a camera man in the way of good. So it looks like he will not set back.

01:10 clock:! YELLOW And since it is the hoped-for Caution. If debris. The strategy paid off by Junior? Auja, he is second. All take four tires. Edwards crew makes a mistake and a tire rolls down the pit lane. The sentence is ne.

Clock 01:09: Interestingly, the tires from Junior to recover. Turn 1 and 2 are now in the shade, so the track temperature is as low. He now travels back two or three tenths faster. However, he must sooner than anyone else in the box and can only hope that the caution is coming soon. Otherwise, he must first and only under pure green and loses its good postion.

01:06 clock: Junior longs for a Caution. But right now the field is drawn far apart. Edwards runs the fastest times, Kenseth will fall back a little. Junior slips very strong, but holds third place, behind Gordon because he is barely faster.

01:03 Clock: 200 laps down. Junior is complaining about his car. I think, to remain outside the decision was not so good. When he departs, is the abgenudelten on his tires.

00:59 clock: The Roush / Fenway cars today really go like hell. Edwards, Kenseth and Biffle are in the top 10 Ran so slowly comes to Edwards Junior. He passed him relatively easily. I must also give junior hit Kenseth. The team leader of Junior, Tony Eury Jr. has, once again gambled?

00:58 Clock: It's back to business in the field. Sometimes it goes back to third by the curves. Kyle Busch has fallen far behind and is in ninth place. He complains about massive understeer. Junior forward moves the fastest laps. As just: who is at the front, driving the best of times and allowed to settle. The leader went so far everything Sun This shows where you should be on the penultimate lap.

00:55 clock: Restart Now I'm curious to see how the junior with the old tires!. Old tires are not, but if there is now a long green phase, then it might look bad for him. More than a pit stop at the moment is no longer necessary.

00:52 clock: If I have seen really was not junior in the pits. This strategy had been to Daytona, and it has not helped him.

Clock 00:47: Ahh ... just caught YELLOW Scott Riggs it!. Bobby Labonte goes outside very close by him, and it takes the output. Riggs turns Franchitti caught him easily, unfortunately, left front. Hamlin gets the "free pass", the rest goes to the box.

Clock 00:43: Apparently the cars are better when you're ahead alone. Gordon pulls away easily. Jeremy Mayfield skin it sideways into the wall, but he can continue. No, he was only fully cross was able to rescue the car but before it went into the wall.

00:40 clock: Restart from Gordon and Kenseth Biffle. Slowly the battle for the positions will be harder. Sometimes you go to three abreast.

Biffle has a wide circle drive on the back straight, because he is Paul Menard almost touches the sides.

00:37 clock: Almost all drivers accept only new tires on the right side. Gordon is the fastest out of the box and takes the lead.

00:35 clock:! YELLOW Carpentier is cut by Ryan Newman and goes sideways until the outer, inner, then into the wall. He is ok and goes to the pits. Too bad, Carpentier was running well. Like yesterday, the field thins out quite rapidly. Kasey Kahn gets the "free pass".

00:34 clock: At the moment Carl Edwards fastest on the track, which had indeed come from the back, the error due to the pit stop. Ford is very good at all sorts on this course.

00:30 clock: The leaders must fight their way to the driver over, lying one lap. This pulls the box apart a little, but this is still 113 laps at more normal. You stay back a bit now and just trying to stay in the top 10.

00:27 clock: RESTART 18 cars are still in a round, which means that it is mighty close to the inside line. Kenseth goes off the front, followed by Gordon, Busch, Biffle, Burton.

00:22 clock: almost all the drivers to pit, although there was only 20 laps. After 145 laps and 55 laps around a Boxfenster, you will still come in at least twice. We have seen it, that you can ride with older front tires. As some team bosses are now considering already. At present there is only 20 cars in one lap, so you are not too far back must meet.

00:20 Clock: Re-lateral strike hard. Robby Gordon suggests, but in a slightly better angle and can be returned to the pits. YELLOW!

00:16 clock: Positions: Kenseth, Gordon, Busch, Jr., Burton, Harvick, Riggs, Martin, Labonte. Edwards 14th I would not want to commit myself, who can win there today.

00:13 clock: Tony Stewart is out of the hospital and still looks very taken with. He is not hurt, but you can hear in his voice that it has shaken him quite through. He also says that it was the hardest impact he had in a long time. He thanked the "safe wall". He can probably also as violent as the side impact was.

00:12 clock: The race is approaching the half-time. Until now, a lot going on and you can still make no favorites. First it was Kyle Busch, Matt Kenseth now seems to dominate. Behind Gordon and Junior in the Wall.

00:08 clock: As so many cars are 1 lap back, the group of those who argue for the "Lucky Dog" is very large. Kurt Busch makes it easy times on a third line, where there is none. Johnson's problems are grßer. He is about 10 mph slower than others before him. There are about 20 cars back from the iihm also a swim.

00:05 clock: RESTART: Kenseth in front, then Kyle Busch, behind Gordon, Burton, Junior. Forward but it is very, very closely. Busch and Gordon are fighting very hard, side by side. Bush stands at the output of the curves cross, Gordon stay tuned.

00:02 clock: Johnson was in the box. Something is wrong with his car is not, you have worked long at the front. Nothing new from Stewart. Edwards has to end because he was cut off during a tire change a tire.

23:59 Clock: It's not that Stewart really good. He is held by two assistants under the arms and led to a car. He limps slightly, may be that he has injured his ankle.

23:57 clock: It was an evil, side impact for Stewart. Obviously, a tire burst. Stewart gets out very slowly and stands on shaky legs. It has taken him very clearly. But he is ok.

23:56 clock! ..... Tony Stewart in the wall YELLOW Uh, that was a hard impact.

23:51 Clock: Matt Kenseth entirely overlooked, who has smuggled in second place. Kyle Busch is clearly the fastest. Edwards is also on the way to the front and hanging behind Jeff Burton. The rest more or less cruising around the course.

23:47 clock: Now Busch pulls off the front, Burton talks to his old tires in second place, behind Stewart. Edwards and Junior. Race is now very quiet. You can tell that you are really moving mid-race, where you hold your position on the track and be patient.

23:45 clock: Not going to come Hamlin and especially Johnson, who is a lap down and the time is far from being able to get the lap back. Currently, only 18 cars on the lead lap.

23:43 clock: front there is Kyle Busch and Danny Hamlin correctly. Hamlin will not be overtaken. Burton has caught up, as Kurt Busch, who also is a game back. Junior and Stewart come closer.

23:41 clock: 80 laps von267 went. So far it runs very nicely. Kyle Busch overtakes junior and Burton and leads. Now Tony Stewart also appears on the front. The changes seem to be paying off his car.

23:38 clock: RESTART: Burton is ahead because he was not in the box. As far as I've seen, but Junior was there. This is quite a strategy game, if all boxes have a different window.

23:33 clock: According leaderboard now leads Jeff Burton. The field is extremely dependent rolled by. Behind him, junior, then Kyle Busch.

Clock 23:28: YELLOW debris on the track!. The photo shows nothing. Naja. Since Edwards was probably a bit too far forward. The field is led back together. Only 17 cars currently on the lead lap. Through the green-stops, a lot has moved. Amazingly, half the field is already in the box. Now is the Zeitpzunkt, wio out some remain and get back to her lap. The field is very thrown by the other.

23:26 clock: Positions: Edwards 7 seconds before Kyle Busch and Mark Martin (!). Gordon 6th, Stewart 7, Junior 8, Hamlin 17th, Johnson 19th

23:24 clock: Junior was not there and now leads a lap. Now he goes inside. He complains about too much oversteer, but it will not change anything as far as I could see that.

23:21 clock: Stewart earlier. Amazing, how long can the outside. Toyota have a consumption advantage? Stewart is waiting for a caution, since it has just half the field a lap behind. Now he has yet pure. after all, on lap 60, up to 10 rounds later than the rest

23:19 clock: Gordon in the pits. Similarly, the Busch brothers and Mark Martin. Tony Stewart takes the time, but must still aich pure. Kurt Busch gets a drive-thru because he was too fast in the pits. Biffle also. Oh no, two of the fastest losing a round.

Clock 23:17: Good race by Scott Riggs, who works his way slowly to the front. So slowly comes the phase of pit stops under green. Edwards in there, inside Biffle. CRASH: Hornish in the wall, no yellow, even though the car is badly defomiert. No yellow. All need to clean green.

23:13 Clock: In contrast to the NW race yesterday, today it is really too mannered. 42 laps are run, Edwards is ahead, behind Biffle, Kurt Busch before. Gordon only sixth, ninth Tony Stewart.

23:11 clock: Junior is working slowly forward again, after he was early in the race fell far behind. Of 30 He has worked himself back up to 17th place.

23:09 clock: Bush has fallen back behind Gordon. Apparently he has his car on short runs voted, or that something is wrong with the trackbar. As will be safe even worked on the car. Behind Kyle Busch, Kurt's brother shows up. The two are on the track and more fire and water. In Charlotte, they have shot down last year against each other.

23:04 clock: Positions: Edwards, Busch, Biffle, Gordon. Martin 7, Stewart 14, Junior 25, Hamlin 26, Johnson 27. Montoya 30th

23:01 clock: Montoya, who was weak throughout the weekend on the way, has kissed the wall. Busch and Edwards give it all right in the first round and battle for the lead. Gordon sits at a safe distance behind them and look at this. Behind him, however, is Greg Biffle. Not anymore, Gordon has squandered in Turn 1 and Biffle is due.

Clock 23:00: Edwards nibbling at the rear of Kyle Busch. The two have sold something. Busch goes a little higher than Edwards and comes out with more momentum, Edwards sits down next to him in the turns almost.

22:58 clock: Restart Next go!. It is run single file. Kyle Busch the front, behind Edwards.

22:54 clock: It was not McMurrys error. Kahne came across and kicked out of Turn 4 McMurry in the meadow. Nothing happened. All drivers go after 11 laps in the pits, with many working on the car.

22:53 clock: Amazingly, not a "yellow" although parts lying around. After yesterday's race ... and because Jamie Macmurray in the wall! YELLOW!

22:49 clock: Kyle Busch leads the first round. Behind him Mark Martin second. Carpentier almost thrown out in the first round, but can save themselves. Similarly Reutiman that the car can not catch anymore. Although he may go further, however, brought out by the officials, because his car is rear dissolves.

22:49 clock: JOIN NOW!!

22:47 clock: The last lap is running!

22:44 clock: The cars are in the warm-up laps. Kyle Busch is on pole, Carl Edwards is next to him.

22:38 clock: The drivers sit in their cars and the "Splendid words" were just told. It thunders and 43 cars have engines that run hot.

22:31 clock: The starting ceremony begins. Now is prayed, sang, and later, the famous "Gentleman, start your engines" give.

22:24 clock: still preliminary. Racing weather is terrific, but it's pretty windy, and it is expected that some drivers may have problems with rumfliegenden plastic bags in the grille.

Clock 22:14: I'm curious how the race is run. If it is anything like the Nationwide race, it will be a looooong night, and he could end up with a surprise. The field is so close together that you can make in the top 10 does not have favorites.

22:08 clock: The preliminary reporting progress. It is a good atmosphere and the excitement is so slow. The race is going on between 22:30 and 22:50 clock clock.
