Juan Pablo Montoya vs. Jamie McMurray: The Earnhardt Ganassi Racing teammates eliminated each other in a Vegas crash, and Montoya took direct aim at the Daytona 500 winner afterwards. "He's not doing himself any favors," said Montoya of McMurray. "I'm sure (McMurray) is going to say, 'Oh, I didn't mean that.' ... He is just trying to prove to people he can drive a race car, and I guess he isn't doing too many favors on this team." McMurray, taken aback, suggested that Montoya's remarks were made in part because, in the heat of the moment, he was frustrated.
My take: To paraphrase the country song, who picks up the pieces every time two teammates collide?
