Shame on you, Denny Hamlin!

I am a huge Junior fan, but after being an official in a sim racing league and even watching an identical incident take place in front of me at Phoenix (sim racing again) I can't in good conscience blame Kurt Busch, and I hope no other Dale Junior fans will either. That incident was caused by Denny Hamlin's selfish decision to park on the track to force a caution. Junior had broken away from KB, and was well on his way to a win. It was Hamlin attempting to stay on the lead lap that brought those two back together, not a boneheaded move by either Kyle or Dale. So hopefully the rest of Junior Nation will understand and not issue any death threats to KB. He raced Junior clean until he got loose after being pinched down.

This was Hamlin's doing, and he should take full responsibility.
