BROOKLYN, Mich. - Brad Keselowski answered two questions with one answer Friday morning.Team Penske has won both of the races with the proposed 2017 aerodynamic package. So what gives? And what has the team heard, if anything, about the post-Pocono competitive balance wind tunnel testing NASCAR did after it took cars from every manufacturer?Keselowski answered the second question before it was even asked with his answer to the first one about why Joey Logano won Michigan in June and Keselowski won Kentucky in July, both races with the proposed 2017 rules package being used again at Michigan this weekend.There actually is a really good reason for it, Keselowski said. I think from an aero perspective -- NASCAR took all the cars after Pocono -- and from an aero perspective right now the Fords are the worst.So when you go to a lower downforce [for 2017], we arent at quite a disadvantage. Since we are running well, we have other advantages on the car, but from an aero perspective we are the worst in that category.Its not a surprise to hear Keselowski say that. The statistics show it.In the 18 races using the 2016 aerodynamic package (in other words, races not including restrictor-plate events at Daytona and Talladega, and the 2017 package races at Michigan and Kentucky), Toyotas have led 62 percent of all laps and won 10 of them. Chevrolets have led 30 percent with six wins, and Fords have led just eight percent with two wins.In those races, Toyota earned 46 percent of the top-five starting positions, which shows its speed. Chevrolet does have 48 percent of the overall top-five finishes.Obviously, the number and strength of the manufacturers teams -- Toyota is primarily Joe Gibbs Racing and affiliate Furniture Row Racing -- play a role in these results. And a postrace car in the wind tunnel is never truly an accurate picture since the cars had just run hundreds of laps.I am sure you would be shocked to know who won, Keselowski said about the wind-tunnel testing, referring to Toyota. I didnt see the numbers personally so it isnt fair for me to say [exactly how far were off].But I could read the faces of the people that did see the numbers and I know the meetings that happened right after and I would say based on that there were some reactions to say we were a little further behind than we wanted to be.The former Sprint Cup champion said this as just plain fact and he swore he wasnt trying to lobby for a rule change the rest of the season. NASCAR officials wouldnt release numbers nor confirm Keselowskis assessment from the test, but they said they have no plans to make any rules changes based on what they saw.Balance of performance is something that hurts our sport when we continue to make changes and concessions, Keselowski said. As long as when we are on the good side of that, it stays the same.It seems every time we get on top there is a wind tunnel test or some kind of rule change to try to pull us down. But when we are behind it is like, Oh now, lets keep it fair and equal and everyone with the same opportunity. As long as it is consistent either way, I am good with that.Ford introduced a new nose in 2016, and Toyota changed some of its body style in 2015. The Chevrolets have remained relatively the same but would expect to have a new car either in 2017 or 2018 as Chevrolet closes its SS production plants in Australia next year.The Gibbs guys have got, I feel like, a little bit of an advantage right now because they have just been working hard on it, said Richard Childress Racing driver Austin Dillon, who drives a Chevrolet. We just have to keep working on it in our camp and see if we can catch them before the end of the year. http://www.officiallionsgear.com/Lions-Theo-Riddick-Draft-Jersey/ .

In the second heat of the womens 5,000 meters Tuesday at the Olympics, Abbey DAgostino of the United States reminded us of what the Games are all about.After Nikki Hamblin tripped, DAgostino stumbled and fell over the New Zealander, injuring her knee.But instead of immediately attempting to catch the pack of runners, the American helped the visibly rattled Hamblin to her feet.Get up, get up! We have to finish! DAgostino told her. This is the Olympic Games. We have to finish this.The two shaken runners were able to finish the heat, although well behind the rest of the field. DAgostino has been lauded for her inspiring actions.Its not the first gesture of sportsmanship at the Olympics, and its likely not the last.?Here are 10 other memorable moments of great sportsmanship at the Summer Olympics:Lutz Long, long jumper, Berlin 1936After fouling on his first two attempts in the long jump, Jesse Owens needed to make an adjustment if he expected to qualify for the final. Legend has it that German competitor Long, who had befriended Owens, told the 23-year-old American to tweak his approach -- advice that would change the course of the competition. Long, who had already qualified for the final, told Owens to make his final attempt from a foot behind the takeoff board to avoid the risk of another foul. Using Lutzs advice, Owens qualified for the final and went on to win gold. Long earned the silver.Shawn Crawford, sprinter, Beijing 2008In the final of the 200 meters, American sprinter Crawford finished fourth behind winner Usain Bolt, Churandy Martina of the Netherlands Antilles and American Wallace Spearmon. But afterward, it was determined Spearmon and Martina had stepped on their lane lines during the race, a technicality that disqualified them. As a result, Crawford went from fourth place to second and was awarded the silver medal. After the Games, Martina received a package from Crawford. When he opened it, it contained the Americans silver medal and a note: I know this wont replace the moment, but I want you to have this, because I believe its rightfully yours!Andrew Turner and Jackson Quinonez, hurdlers, London 2012During a heat in the 110-meter hurdles, Chinese track star Liu Xiang injured his right leg and hobbled past the finish line. Britains Turner and Spains Quinonez came to Xiangs aid, assisting the 2004 Olympic champion and former world-record holder to a wheelchair to be taken from the track.Shuhei Nishida and Sueo Oe, pole vaulters, Berlin 1936After Earle Meadows of the United States won gold in the pole vault, Japanese competitors Nishida and Oe competed in a jump-off for the silver. Although both vaulters finished with the same height, the silver was ultimately awarded to Nishida for having fewer misses than Oe. However, when the Olympians returned home, they did the unthinkable. Nishida and Oe cut their medals in half to create two new medals of half silver, half bronze. They were called the medals of friendship.Derek Redmond, sprinter, Barcelona?1992Who can forget Redmonds courageous moment during his 400-meter semifinal? Near the end of the race, the British track star suffered a torn hamstring and began hobbling in pain, but he was determined to finish.dddddddddddd As Redmond struggled, his father came to his aid, rushing down from the stands through fans and past security to reach his son. With Jim Redmond supporting him on the track, Derek completed the race, although he was later disqualified for receiving assistance. In 2012, Jim Redmond was a torchbearer for the 2012 London Games.Lawrence Lemieux, sailor, Seoul 1988During the fifth race of Finn class sailing, a seven-race event, harsh winds caused Singapores Joseph Chan and Siew Shaw to capsize, throwing them into the water. When Lemieux saw the stranded sailors, the Canadian veered from his course and ceded his second-place position to rescue them. He returned to the race but finished in 22nd place. Because of his actions, the yacht racings world governing body gave Lemieux the points from the race he would have earned for a second-place finish. Lemieux finished 11th overall in the event but was awarded the Pierre de Coubertin medal for sportsmanship from the IOC for his actions.Cam McEvoy, swimmer, Rio 2016Favored in the 100-meter freestyle, Australian swimmer Cam McEvoy finished a shocking seventh. But instead of sulking and turning a cheek to the winner, Australian teammate Kyle Chalmers, McEvoy championed Chalmers and celebrated his Olympic roommates victory. After the race, McEvoy hoisted Chalmers arm and pointed at the gold-medal winner to recognize his feat.Dara Torres, swimmer, Beijing 2008The swimsuit of Swedens Therese Alshammar ripped as she was preparing for a 50-meter freestyle semifinal. Torres, an American competing in her fifth Olympics, tried helping Alshammar fix the suit, but Alshammar had to change it and didnt enter the pool area with the rest of the swimmers. Unaware of Alshammars situation, race officials simply assumed she had missed her race. Torres, however, told them what was going on, and the race didnt start until Alshammar was ready. Alshammar did not qualify for the final, but Torres did and went on to take silver.Judy Guinness, fencer, Los Angeles 1932British fencer Guinness was in position to win the individual foil gold medal match against Austrias Ellen Preis. Guinness, however, notified the judges that they failed to award two points to Preis for successful touches, and the change in scoring reversed the final result, giving Preis gold and Guinness silver.Pavle Kostov and Petar Cupac, sailors, Beijing 2008Kostov and Cupac of Croatia didnt qualify for the final of the mens 49er skiff class, but their boat did. Event leaders Jonas Warrer and Martin Kirketerp Ibsen of Denmark were in danger of being stranded when the mast of their skiff broke before the 10-boat final. But Kostav and Cupac agreed to let the Danes use their vessel. Warrer and Ibsen finished seventh in the borrowed boat, which was all they needed to clinch the gold medal. Kostov, Cupac and their trainer, Ivan Bulaja, were awarded the Pierre de Coubertin medal for their sporting gesture.
