Juan Pablo Montoya has hit the headlines once again thanks to "an inappropriate gesture" made during practice for the recent NASCAR Busch Series race at Phoenix. NASCAR has fined him $10,000 and placed him on probation until the end of the year for giving one of his opponents the finger while he was unaware that he was being shown live on an in-car camera.

There is currently no word on the casualty figures but undoubtedly some of the red-neck NASCAR fans will have died of shock at such rudeness, unaccustomed as they are to such behaviour.

This was judged to be an action detrimental to stock car racing and so the fine was imposed.

One can only wonder what will happen if JPM gets going with one of his colourful rants at some point as some of his favourite adjectives are probably a little too colourful for the NASCAR folk.

Only in a America!!!!

A country that is happy for students to go and kill as many fellow students as possible before turning the gun on themseleves, but if you stick your finger up in disgust at someone then you are a criminal and you need to be punished!!!!!

Worst of all, this country is going down the same route, please someone help us...

Maybe so, but will they change anything....

NO

My comment was more about the reaction to someone sticking a fingerup!! So what if was caught on live TV - are the Americans really that narrow-minded.

No need to answer that one !!!!

They were just angry that a "mexican" (according to some utter turd I've read on other forums) is allowed to race NASCARs.
