I think common decency and respect was shown by the broadcast in not showing replays of such a horrific crash.

Yeah, I guess your right. I'm just use to nascar replaying crashes a 100 times right after they happen.

NASCAR broadcasts, and replays, are a product of their fan base as played to by the production team.

Yesterday's crash was violent-looking...and worrisome to all, watching...which happened to involve the Pole-sitting Corvette DP. Ergo the post...

Best news, this morning, was the positive update.

I haven't watched a NASCAR race in quite some time, but I think even they tend to wait until they see movement in the car, or the driver get out, before showing replays.
