A nine-car wreck on a restart eliminates several contenders halfway through the NASCAR Cup race at AutoClubSpdwy:
“I took off on the restart and went from second to third gear and all of a sudden everybody in front of us just stopped," explained Almirola."I think the leader was just playing games, trying to prevent the runs coming from behind and they stopped in the middle of the restart zone was right about where they should have been accelerating. It was just a huge accordion effect. We were back in 16th, so everybody just started stacking up and you can’t stop on a dime.
"It’s unfortunate. That adjustment could have gotten us a lot better and we could have kept on making little gains. That was our goal, not to beat ourselves and just be there in the last 50 or 60. That’s why we stayed out that run, to see what our car would do in clean air and if we needed to work on it, which we did, and I felt like we just kept on making it better and better.
Reddick's race was also over. He echoed the thoughts of the SHR drivers."It got stacked up pretty bad. I saw he car behind me got a really big run, so I kind of elected to make the decision to juke to the bottom and get around it. Unfortunately, Ryan had the same idea, so we just got collected and went through the grass. The right front of our Toyota was broke. Unfortunate end to my Cup racing career at this two-mile track, but thankfully, got one more shot later.
