Who's side were you on when that happened? I'm for Jeff, who just did what needed to be done to win. Kenseth was too slow and then tried to block Gordon, naturally. But Gordon just decided to be pretty aggressive. Thoughts on this?

Everyone's got an opinion. Gordon ran down Kenseth and had the faster car. Did Kenseth really think he was going to hold him off? Kenseth should have just let him go, finish second, and take the point lead, if he didn't run out of gas before the finish. I am not a Gordon fan, but I don't think he did anything really bad. Kenseth dropped the ball on this one.

I am a Kenseth fan, the replays showed Kenseth had already blocked Gordon at least twice before. The interview with Kenseth he said he figured Gordon would be able to pass him, #24 was faster.
I still think Helton and NASCAR treat Gordon as their golden boy.I still didn't like it, Kenseth will do a payback, or Roush Racing will have someone else do a number on Jeffy baby...I hope.

Matt Kenseth was obviously slower than Jeff Gordon. BUT, Jeff Gordon knew that because his crew chief was talking to him on the radio. Therefore, given the fact that Jeff Gordon would have been able to pass him cleanly after they both got past Casey Mears, the incident was unnecessary. Jeff Gordon demonstrated zero patience and on an intermediate sized track, those kinds of things are not called for.

Gordon was just racing! I am not a fan of Gordon, or Kenseth (btw, it was Karma), but Gordon just gave a light tap like all the drivers do! Kenseth shoulda got the heck outta his way! Kenseth attracts drama (w/Kurt Busch, Gordon, Stewart)!

I agree. I'm not all that much of a Gordon fan, but that was just racing. Kenseth looked like he let up, or wasn't coming off the corner very well.

Simple, Jeff Gordon is a idiot and a little pretty boy that can't win a race without wrecking someone... Jeff Gordon needs to be run into the wall himself and see what it's like... Jeff Gordon is an ***!!

It was just a little pay back, to bad cause Gordon definitely had the faster car,he would have won anyway, Kenseth ran out of gas he would not have finished first anyway!!!

That's an easy answer, Jeff Gordon is a whiner who somehow always gets his way. Sorry, not a Gordon fan here..
