For the most part, any seriously dangerous situations were avoided anyway. If there would have been a crash going into turn one, and they didn't throw the caution, with what happened off of turn four, there would have been an issue. But everybody that wrecked was going to wreck anyway, regardless of whether or not they threw that caution. There is always a fine line in a grey area, but I think for as much as they get criticised for various cautions and too many green-white-chequereds. Mark [Martin] is a great, but he has been a big proponent for not having cautions come out. So I think they did the best job with the scenario they had, you know, having the race finish the way it would have finished if there wasn't a caution. I don't view anything any different. I've always known that beyond the last lap, things are different. As a driver, if you take a guy out in the middle of a race, you're a bad guy. But if you take a guy out with one lap to go, hey, you're did what you could to win. Those last lap scenarios are always different and NASCAR's got to make those calls as well.
