Veteran NASCAR Driver Annoyed By Cameras During Playoffs

Earlier this week NASCAR driver Joey Logano made it clear he's not in love with fact the NASCAR Playoffs are being filmed for a Netflix documentary series.

In a conversation on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio, Logano admitted he watches documentary series about other sporting events and loves them. However, it's not as fun being the one in front of the lens.

“It’s okay, it’s a little annoying if I’m being real with you guys, right?” Logano said. “It’s, who wants a camera following you and a microphone listening to everything you got? And you know, the way this Netflix thing is, we don’t have editing rights. 

"So what they get and what they use is totally up to them. So watch what you say and watch what you do because they can use it, and they can edit it in a way that makes you look completely different than the actual situation that is happening."

"That part is really concerning for me, not that I’m worried I’m going to say the wrong thing, it’s that they’re going to use it in a different context than what it actually was," he added.

"That’s what makes me really really nervous about the situation. At the same time, I watch docuseries all the time and I love them, about sports or whatever I think they’re great because I learn about what somebody’s industry is all about and how people prepare and whatever. So I really like that part, but being on it is not that much fun.”

The good news for Logano is that he was eliminated from the playoffs so he won't have to worry about the cameras being in his face on the track.
