    I remember in September 2001, motorsport worldwide was grieving for those who lost their lives in 9/11. I remember the first F1 race after the attacks, which took place in Monza just days after, several teams had some sort of tribute, usually depicting the American flag. The Ferrari team had probably the most simple yet moving tribute, a plain, sponsorless livery and a matte black nose cone, chosen as a mark of respect for the thousands who died

    Mad respect to Dale Jr for how he managed his way through 2001 and beyond, but I always feel like I'm the only person who doesn't care about him winning that Pepsi 400. I don't feel the emotions that most people feel when they watch the final laps of that race. Nothing against y'all that do, but it wouldn't have made a difference to me whether he won or finished last.

    I still find it in many ways ironic that Dale Senior had all those victories, and all those championships but was seemingly never the most popular driver in the sport (being booed after spinning out Terry Lebonte on the final lap of Bristol in 1999), yet after his passing in 2001, Dale Earnhardt Junior became the most popular driver to the fans, despite not matching the same heights as his father (in both race victories and championships). I guess popularity does not necessarily mean success on the race track
