And we can all be thankful that this wasn't Danica that blocked Tony Stewart, or slid up into Denny Hamlin. Think about it. If this were Danica instead of Joey Logano (just a hypothetical here, I realize Danica is Stewart's driver), that enraged driver would be suspended indefinitely, called a male chauvinist, be forced to do a public service announcements about anger management and domestic violence, and feminist groups and certain politicians would be calling for massive changes in how NASCAR treats women, and how there needs to be a 50/50 balance of female and male drivers, with ethnic diversity forced into the mix.

Latest Story:

Three-time Sprint Cup champion Tony Stewart won't be fined for a post-race fight or vulgar statements about Joey Logano on Sunday at Auto Club Speedway, NASCAR announced Tuesday. NASCAR also won't discipline six drivers who were called to the hauler following the California race for entering pit road after the checkered flag, when the pit was closed.

In explaining his decision, Darby said Stewart and Logano didn't place anyone at risk, like during a 2011 incident at Darlington that led to $25,000 fines for Kyle Busch and Kevin Harvick. In that altercation, Harvick took a swing at Busch, who stayed in his car. In trying to pull away, Busch pushed Harvick's car into the inside retaining walls with safety workers and crew members still in the area.

The scene between Stewart and Logano never reached that point. Stewart was angry that Logano blocked him on the final restart. After the race, Stewart cut off Logano's car on pit road with his, approached him and shoved .netA scuffle ensued, and Stewart lashed out during an interview later shown on Fox, with the cuss words bleeped.

Funny how no mention in most media coverage even when showing the video of Stewie blocking "The Kid" with his car. CALM DOWN Tony The Tiger!!!
