What Stewart Did Right After The Crash Shows What Kind Of Guy He Really Is After facing public scrutiny following the questionable crash that resulted in the death of Kevin Ward Jr., Tony Stewart made the decision to bow out of a race in Watkins Glen. The more interesting story is why he made that decision. According to his director, Greg Zipadelli, Stewart was business as usual in the hours immediately following the young drivers death. Ultimately, the decision to drop out of the race is perceived to have been made because it was only optionnot because Stewart was so devastated he felt he couldnt participate. Now, questions about Stewarts character continue to come to the surface. His reputation for being a hot head is stifled by the assertions of his friends that he is a great guy. Still, some doubt that his decision to drop out of the race was based on anything other than necessity. Keep in mind, though, that NASCAR is within their rights to bench the driver as he faces any potential charges, but they instead let Stewart make the decision on his own. The decision was not an easy one for Stewart, and his backing down shows a humility and acceptance of the tragedy. What do you think? Is Stewart really the villain the media is making him out to be?
