Dale Earnhardt Jr. believes fans can relate to the emotion Stewart showed after his wreck with Kenseth.
“I’m sure everybody watching the race has somebody’s neck they’d like to wring,” Earnhardt said Friday at Atlanta. “Maybe they live vicariously through that emotion in some way. There’s probably a co-worker or two they wouldn’t mind running their fist into his face. It’s probably more likely than you imagine. . . .
“When we get out (of the car) and do things such as Tony did, the fans really connect to that. They really connect to that emotion. And driving down the road, somebody cuts you off on the highway — you would love to shoot them the bird or something. Maybe you do.”
