As long as he won it "fair and square," what's the beef? If NASCAR says he won, then he won.VAROOOOOOM!! GO J-GORDON!!!

Yeah... i like to look at the amounts...they are some pretty impressive #'s.....However the drivers dont get all that money!!! They usually are paid a base salary just to start with....plus a % of other sales....and the winnings are divided by the team owner....throughout the crew and so on!!!GO HARVICK & RCR!!!

I think they should have ended the race after the 2nd red flag if they couldn't get the entire rest of the race in before dark. Why they decided on 77 more laps, I will never understand. They should have called it, or post-pponed the rest of the race to the next day without rain.Go Jr.>>>>

I always go to yahoo sports and get the break down----how much they won--how many laps led--how many laps completed and so on. The drivers just get a percentage of the total winnings based on their contracts. Some get more $ by finishing lower because of the apperance monies and so forth .

Bowyer should of have been named as the winner. Biffle barely even crossed the finish line because he ran out of gas. They shouldn't just change the rules because the race was under caution.

NASCAR, (GOD),has done it again, messed things up. Yes Bowyer should have won. I do realize that when a caution flag comes out the field is frozen, however that should not apply with circumstances as they were last night.

Well, Nascar says he won. I don't feel he should have been scored where he was. It is too bad that yellow came out. Biffle would not have finished the race under green. He pulled down and really slowed up, out of gas or not, the confusion alone almost caused Boyer to run into the 38. Nascar saying he maintained a reasonable speed is laughable.

Johnson won the race the way I seen it. Biffle run out of gas and Boyer followed at Biffles slow speed so Johnson went around them because they were not keeping up with the pace car. When boyer finally came to his since instead of falling in behind Johnson he passed Johnson which made him passing and opponent under yellow. Should have been penalized. Crazy I know but so is NASCAR

Bowyer fair and square but when in Nascar fair? Hey Biffle may have been in the lead when the field was frozen but at least Bowye completed all remaining laps without running out of gas. And that just gives Jeff and Jimmy a few extra points.

Bowyer should have been declared the winner. The rules say that a driver has to keep a reasonable pace under caution. Umm, shouldn't that be the pace at which the pace car is running? And, Biffle couldn't do that. And not to stir the pot, but in my opinion the race should have never been restarted after the second red flag. Gee, do you think maybe somebody couldn't stand for Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon to be that far back in the field and actually have to fight some difficulties in the chase? Wasn't gonna happen. The ruling Nascar body was not going to allow their golden boys to finish at the back. That was a big shake up in the standings as far as Hendrick and Gibbs racing was concerned. What's with Jr running over Kyle? It shows a lot of maturity in the fact that Kyle never tried to punt Jr when he got back out on the track like he used to would've done. RCR fan all the way here. I hope Bowyer wins it all and makes them all look like chumps!

I like the fact that Biffle won due to the fact that it didnt affect the Chase standings all that much then again, I have to admit that I would have loved to see Bowyer win as he was the hometown guy and didnt live that far away from the track and he was the favorite to win.
