Why NASCAR Doesn’t Need to Step in on Sawalich vs. Day

Dale Earnhardt Jr. is back with TJ Majors for another packed episode of Dirty Air.

The guys break down a wild weekend at World Wide Technology Raceway, including the chaos on pit road, the on-track aggression between Corey Day and William Sawalich, and what caused all the chaos in the Cup race.

Cliff Daniels – Crew Chief for Kyle Larson - digs into the recent brake failures that sent cars hard into the wall. They break down what’s happening with the current brake packages, how teams are managing temperatures and cooling, and whether NASCAR needs to step in before the problem gets worse.

Plus, the guys look at the current Championship picture heading into Bristol, who is gaining momentum, who is running out of time, and whether the back half of the Chase can mount a run for the title.

Ask Jr and Dirty Mo Dough round out another episode of Dirty Air.
