The last race of the NASCAR Cup at the WWT Raceway has been a true spectacle of tension and excitement. On a day marked by 18 stops, the drivers have surpassed the limits of courtesy on the radio stage, accumulating 245 vulgarities that have increased NASCAR’s famous ‘vulgarity jar.’ Thus, the total fines amount to $1,225, which will go to the promotional fund of the competition.
These insults are part of a new initiative that allows fans to earn money by inviting them to guess the number of vulgarities expressed during the live broadcasts of each race. So far, the accumulated amount reaches $2,340 in just two Chase races, including 223 vulgarities in the race prior to the Southern 500.
In the ranking of insults, the most repeated word has been ‘f***’, totaling 235 of the 468 observed expressions of bad manners so far, followed by ‘sh*t’ which has appeared 103 times. New additions such as ‘bullsh*t’ and the inevitable ‘sh*tshow’ have also been included. This last race has set the record for vulgarities in a single event at Gateway.
In light of this situation, the drivers and teams seem willing to be increasingly creative with their vocabulary, as the competition intensifies with the fight for the championship.
In an exciting context, Kyle Larson has been the winner of this intense race, ending a 51-race win drought, while closing in to just nine points from the championship leader, Denny Hamlin.
