RELATED: Comparing NFL QBs to NASCAR drivers | Drivers attend Super Bowl
NASCAR drivers were quick to chime in on the result of Super Bowl 50 — Denver Broncos 24, Carolina Panthers 10 — Sunday night, with the results split between being disappointed for the hometown Panthers, who are based in Charlotte, North Carolina, and respect for Broncos QB Peyton Manning.
Here’s some of the reaction from NASCAR Nation. And to those die-hard Panthers fans (looking at you, Austin Dillon and Ty Dillon), here’s some news that will cheer you up — cars are on track in five days.

Will teamates talk Peyton into one more year? I doubt it. He is one of the best. Amazing to go out with another ring.
