This was explained over and over by Harvick and Bowyer (mostly by Harvick because he had first hand experience driving the new configuration) during the course of the race... they were more fanned out after the first two rows because they needed air on the front of the nose of the cars to fight the tightness in the turns.ncsupack1 said:ge_traveler said:
The Penske cars (and Wood Bros) had a plan and executed it most of the race keeping them up front for most of it. They stayed in line and together. The cars from 3 to 15 were all over the place, jumping line to line and they really never had two good lines of racing. Just when a second lane would form, they would jump lanes and it would break up. The two doing most of the jumping were Chastain in the 1 and Hocevar in the 77. 77 is young and learning, Chastain just aggressive. Almost worked out for 77 though.
You are right, racing behind the leaders seemed disorganized at best.
That very well may be. My issue is with the 77, this type of driving by him goes back to his ARCA days.
