RE: 07 NASCAR CUP PREDICTIONS ?
Wonder what Tony will say tomorrow night on his radio show about it....
Gibbs pretty much said that everything is ok,
But I would be welling to say once the boss gets both of them behind close doors
It will be a different story

Fuel mileage played a role in the outcome at Michigan so you can’t necessarily look at the finishing order. You’ve got to look at how the teams ran. [/align][*][align=center]Read full article

Stewart’s reaction to wreck still an issue
CIA Stock Photo[/align]Jul 14, 2007
DAVID POOLE, charlotteobserver.com: “Definitely,†Hamlin said Friday at Chicagoland Speedway when asked if he’s disappointed at how Stewart blamed Hamlin for the crash, which happened with Hamlin leading and Stewart running second.
“Even if it was a situation where I had wrecked him from behind, he still probably shouldn’t have thrown me under the bus as far as he did,†Hamlin said. “I was the guy in front. It was a little bit of disappointment, so that’s why I’ve taken this week to kind of calm down.â€
Darrell Waltrip from Fox Sports: Doing the HotPass telecast was interesting. I was following Stewart, and you call the race like a No. 20 fan. I was able to talk with Tony after he and Denny Hamlin crashed, and I got some of his insight. After talking with Tony for a little while, all of the sudden, it clicked that the same thing happened to him in February.
In the Daytona 500, he was coming off of Turn 4, got a little loose and probably got out of the throttle a little bit. Kurt Busch took himself and Tony out of the race. I think Tony started to recall that incident. It was obvious, watching him on camera, that some of his anger had diminished.
On his weekly satellite radio show, Stewart said he had not yet talked with Hamlin but that he and last year’s top rookie have a good relationship. “Oh, yeah. And the thing that people didn’t understand about the deal the other day is I remember when we were in Sonoma [last month] and he had just won the Busch race at Milwaukee and I put a note on his door just telling him that I was proud of him and he did a good job with the circumstances that happened there,†he said “I love the kid like a little brother. There’s not any animosity from that. It’s just as tough as the competition is and the way that some of the things happen during the weekend and early in the race like that, I think there’s ways that we can work as teammates better ... But we’ll get all that stuff figured out. And that’s just part of being young teammates. I mean, we’ve only worked with each other a year and a half.â€Associated Press via ESPN
Denny Hamlin was leading the race going into Turn 4 of the 2.5-mile track when Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Tony Stewart bumped him from behind in what NASCAR calls the no-bump zone. Hamlin almost saved his car, and then Stewart bumped him again to start a multi-car wreck that sent both to the garage. Next thing you know, Stewart is on television blaming Hamlin for the accident. “All of a sudden he just stops on the exit of Turn 4 and in front of 42 cars and he can’t expect all of us to drive around him,†Stewart said. “He just wrecked two really good race cars. >ESPN
