I won't go so far as to say Jesse would have definitely won, had the #68 of Hendrick gotten out of the way. But, I really wish he would have made room for the leaders so we could have more than likely seen a classic finish. Bottom line is DD had to (and did) get around the #68, also. It was a great race, none the less. From Clauson gassing it up and really letting it hang out there, on the top side, early, to the way Jesse was just slamming it into 1 and 3 (Bob Kinser-like, I must say) to take control of the race, to the way Levi charged up through the field, to the way DD surgically knifed his way through the lead group to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, I'd say the racers and track crew did a complete reversal from what the program was like up till the heats were over. Great track surface recovery and an even greater race!!
