I have a different interpretation of what happened. Having replayed the video several times, to me, the rev jump was AFTER impact.
Also, no one, regardless of what reason, should ever get into the path of other cars on a track. Period. As someone stated above, this is part of the NASCAR culture and should never be tolerated. Fining someone is not enough. A suspension or ban should be the penalty. You never see this in any other form of racing.
Having been on a professional race track and having crashes happen in front of me, a yellow flag is not what people think it is. It means to slow down to a reasonable and safe speed and no passing. It is to allow safety workers to get to the scene safely. Yellow flags do not take into account hot heads wanting to start an argument in the middle of a hot race track. Had this been a red flag, I agree Tony would be 100% at fault.
