IMO it was a horrible combination of stupid on both sides. Yes, the two cars did a little dirt track bumping, and Ward's car got wrecked.
-Ward exits his car in a black uniform and goes to yell or what not at Tony's car as it comes by. The white car that passes Ward first gave not indication that he saw Ward and he blows past him, almost hitting him. It was a stupid move to both exit the car and walk down to the racing line, granted the yellow was out.
-I have NO IDEA if Stewart saw Ward then gunned the engine as a "F-U" on the way by or if he didn't see him at all until right at the last second and gunned it to try and miss him. How can anyone know at this point? Tony was stupid to be there at all and then whatever transpired was terrible.
Sad day, and mad props to AJ Allmendinger today for talking about Ward in Victory Lane, that was a class act.
As I have become older it blows my mind, really blows me away that you can spend 20, 30 years building a life, a career, your word and reputation and 60 seconds of poor judgement or emotion can flush it down the toilet like it never existed. Everyone should keep that in mind at all times.
