In March 2010, at Kobalt Tools 500 in Atlanta, only away from the end, Karl Edwards has woven his intention to Brad Kisselovsky during a confrontation on the path. This step fired Ford Kiselovsky in the wall, as she was briefly carried by an atmosphere before he retreated, criticizing his contemporary teammate Clint Puert.
This collision pushed one of the most drivers that spoke in the afternoon and Edwards fell on a NASCAR test. At the end of the tail of the race, Edwards, who was eliminating the damage caused by a previous incident, returned with intent. NASCAR announced earlier January 2010 that Nassakar President Mike Hilton described the moment as unacceptable, but not outside the scope of “new boys”, earlier in January 2010.
The NASCAR penalty was a three -time test for Carl Edwards, which is meant as a balance between allowing drivers to settle grades and enforce safety. Brad Kisselovsky, on his part, before the ruling. He said (cross Associated Press Gina Fryer):
“They are not in an enviable position when it comes to these matters, but they are doing a great job,”
But not everyone agreed with Naskar. Clint Boer was reflected in the accident during the tire test in Darlington. He said:

While admitting the desire for freedom to the path, Bouer felt that clear borders were crossed. Hilton agreed that the work was necessary, even in the comfortable Naskar approach.
“The clear message, as I think, we sent in January is that we were ready to put more responsibility in the hands of the driver. But there is a line that you can cross and will enter the law and order when we think this line is intersecting,” Hilton said.
Ultimately, Edwards avoided the comment but was reminded of the line between the self -appointment punishable by explicit recklessness by NASCAR.
Talladega’s 2009 Aaron’s 499: The Origins of the Carl Edwards-Brad Keselowski Trivalry
The seeds of competition between Edwards and Keselowski were planted in 2009 Aaron’s 499 in Talladega, one year before Atlanta’s revenge. Karl Edwards called Brad Kisselovsky in the final corner, turning himself alongside. Then his car collided with Ryan Newman at full speed, turned an atmosphere and fell into the fence, and sprayed the debris in the crowd.
The medical director, Dr. Bobby Lewis, reported seven fans who were treated, who were transported, although any of the life -threatening injuries. Edwards discussed the wreckage, saying (via ESPN):
“NASCAR puts us in this square and will compete in this way until they kill someone. Then they will change him. We are very lucky that no one is injured today.”
While Keselowski note:
“I do not want to destroy anyone, but to say that the sport of not communicating is fun, I don’t buy it. These men want to see contact as much as I want to give it and take it.”
Karl Edwards was running through the finish line after leaving his car, as Kisilovsky won the first crown jewel race.
