Poor Jimmy, he couldn't hardly get any coverage at all: even when he was battling Kenseth for 2nd late in the race the cameras were on Gordon racing for 6th .. until victory lane, that is. Post race interview with Gordo produced these jewels: "Top 10 isn't good enough!"; "you can't rub Kevin 'cause he gets mad..."; "It's over, even if we win the championship it'll be because (Jimmy) had a problem .. I'll take it, but it's not the way I want to win it."

Man! If ever there was a true statement, that was it. So much coverage of Gordon! I barely watched the race. I hate to say it, but I hoped that "Happy" would take him out just for the controversy!

Good!

That is definitely a consistent criticism of the coverage. A few drivers always stay in the focus, no matter what else is going on around the track. I hope they find a way to improve the coverage in the near future
