Nascar is holding a news conference today at 12:30 PM, it should’ve already started by now, but the live video feed hasn’t updated yet, check here. Update: It has started now. The short of it sounds like Carl is going on probation for the next three races. Yawn. It’s a racing deal I say, suspension would’ve been too much punishment as this has been building up for awhile. The audio on the news feed is very low for some reason, so not sure what kind of questions he is being asked.

Below are some of the videos taken at the speedway featuring the wreck caused by Carl.

In the other news, Kurt Busch wins the spring Atlanta race, taking advantage of the wreck caused by Carl and Brad and holding off Matt Kenseth for the win.

Here are some great videos for all you fans of Danica Patrick. Some of them are calling her the Anna Kournikova of Nascar, not sure that I agree yet, on Trackside the other night, she seemed very knowledgeable about racing in general. We shall see if she can do any good, I bet she can win in the Nationwide series at least.

Here are some of her GoDaddy and other commercials.

Here she is racing.

Jimmie Johnson won at his hometrack this past weekend, making up for the bad start at Daytona. He caught a break on the caution and definitely took advantage of it. Harvick had the best quote after the race, and Johnson seemed to get a little touchy in his.

“They’re really good, but they’re also really, really lucky,” Harvick said. “They have a golden horseshoe stuck up their a** — there’s no getting around that.”

“I’m not going to lie — the fact that we were on pit road gave us track position, and I drove my butt off. We finally got the car turning — it was just a little too loose. The 29 [Harvick] was coming, but then he hit the wall and let us get it.

“Yes, we were lucky [Sunday], but you don’t get lucky and win four championships and 48 races.”

Here are the latest videos uploaded from the Daytona 500.

Here are some of the videos that have already been uploaded from today’s Gatorade Duel Races at Daytona.

Here are some great videos from the 2010 Bud Shootout.

Here are some videos from Joey Logano’s big wreck at Dover, I would’ve posted them earlier but my video site was having trouble.

About 120 videos available from this link.

In case you missed the end of the Nationwide series race today, which Clint Bowyer won by the way, Denny Hamlin called Brad Keselowski an idiot after his remarks on what happened on the track today as Brad wrecked Denny.

I think we have a rivalry growing here, check out the video below, which has Brad’s comments that made Denny call him an idiot, and it also has a little run in they had in Charlotte.

It looked to me like Brad just took him out, so it will be interesting to see what happens in the future, I think Denny is smarter than to try something during the Chase, but you never know.

Here are the points standings after todays race:
1. — Kyle Busch 4,549 —
2. — Carl Edwards 4,338 -211
3. — Brad Keselowski 4,252 -297
4. — Jason Leffler 3,749 -800
5. +1 Steve Wallace 3,259 -1,290
6. -1 Justin Allgaier 3,240 -1,309
7. — Jason Keller 3,125 -1,424
8. +1 Mike Bliss 3,120 -1,429
9. -1 Brendan Gaughan 3,063 -1,486
