Juan Pablo's "pass" on Pruett last weekend

[lateapex911]

No, Pruett should be kicking himself for not kicking JPM in the sack after the race, LOL.

JPM wasn't NEARLY close enough to attempt a clean pass. JPM was Pruetts teammate. (1st rule in racing, don't take out your teammate), so Pruett, at that point, in that corner, really didn't need to be a dick and block.

Later, maybe, but not that corner, on that lap. And yes, JPM did have a faster car, so it was likely inevitible that he'd get by. But, he really needed to show his TEAMATE some respect, and be SURE to be clean when it was time to go.

Dick move, NOT Pruetts fault, no other way about it.

Even if JPM made the pass, you guys are forgetting there was a left hand turn right after that, so SP would have the inside line! The best way to protect your car is by not allowing the car behind you any room that he could possible take you out. You control where he passes, don't let him control the pass.
