Sports Illustrated Bowlesy Awards
Sports Illustrated motor sport writer Tom Bowles has released his Bowlesy awards which recognises the good, the bad and the ugly that has been the 2009 Sprint Cup season to date. This semi-annual check-up happens each July and December, and recognises a select number of American stock car drivers on their accomplishments – or lack thereof.
Tasmanian Marcos Ambrose makes the grade with the The Carl Edwards award for providing a pleasant surprise due too:
“Once considered a road course specialist, the Tasmanian has opened eyes with a handful of top-10 finishes on all different types of tracks driving for MWR-supported JTG Daugherty Racing. Eighteenth in the Cup standings, he’d be a Chase contender, too, if not for a litany of mechanical failures early in the season.”
