The idea that this is a legal NASCAR strategy is the most NASCAR thing that ever NASCARed.

Edit: I mean this as a good thing

You know that the guys in race control were staring at each other and saying "wait, can he do that? Is that a penalty?"

It's legal because there was never a rule saying it ain't prior. (Because the guys that tried it before just damaged their cars and kept or lost spots). Moving forward will probably be a different story.

sending it on the last lap shouldn’t be legal? if they wanna wreck themselves and not even come close to damaging another car or put anyone else at risk, let em

Nothing in the rulebook says a dog can't drive a race car

The problem is it can become a fine line between putting others at risk or not. This time it worked to perfection. Doesn’t mean that will always be the case. Bit of a slippery slope.
