I disagree, he tried for a hole that wasn't there. Even Denny said the air moves the cars around so much that it may look like a driver moved when the air moved them over.
I thought he gave a pretty good drivers perspective, a nice change from the talking heads that no nothing about driving the new cars.
It was not Stenhouse Jr.'s fault - IMHO. The hole was there - because Stenhouse was alongside the 36 car when the 36 car hit him. The 17 car maintained his line - the 36 car didn't. Whether the air moved the 36 car over, or Yeley drove the car over doesn't matter, the hole WAS there.

DW (and I agree that sometimes it's almost painful to listen to him) pointed out several times yesterday (correctly also) that you need to be decisive when you make a move. The 36 car moved down to make the hole, then came back up to close it and hit the side of the 17 car.

Any good racer will go for an opening that is big enough for his car to fit into. That's why they call it racing. If Stenhouse had clipped the 36 in the rear (ala Kyle Busch clipping Kasey Kahne), then I'd agree it was the 17's fault.
