What?

 

Newman would be the first to admit that he blocked Blaney and that Blaney was fully in his rights to keep his foot in it. Newman would have done the same.

Its about seeking victory, not about considering the consequences.

Usually they bump them to get em loose & then go around ... he wrecked him IMO.

But it was last lap, so no time for much.

It’s a combination of the track, the aero packages and HP and that’s why none of the drivers are pointing fingers...Newman had to block if he wanted to win and Blaney had to try and get around him. Look at the wrecks earlier in the race where guys were pushing and hit the rear bumper a little off center...spins in the middle of big packs of cars and half the field is junked.

BTW this isn’t a short track where you give ‘em the chrome horn...the old bump and run. At 200 mph you saw the results. 
 

Newman has always been known as a hard charger and also as a driver that is extremely hard to pass...curious to here what he has to say but guessing he won’t lay any blame.

Blaney did everything he could to get around Newman clean but Newman was actively blocking until the moment he lost control. You sound like the people that think Sterling Marlin intentionally wrecked Dale Sr.

Excellent news! If it was a severe traumatic brain injury he'd still be in a medically induced coma for sure.

A lot of people are talking about Ryan. This is the most attention NASCAR has had in a long time. I can't help but wonder if they're dragging it out for attention. 

The dude took a car to the face at 190mph... It's a miracle he's alive let alone awake and talking.

It basically means you are way Off base with your comment about them dragging it out for attention.

I could be and it's not a pleasant inquiry

If he's got some serious injuries I'm wrong obviously. If he walks out in a day or two I'm not. 

There has been many horrific wrecks over the years, some long before safe cars,walls, hans etc and if someone isn't gravely injured you'd know what happened to them by now.
