And, finally, since we’re still “pickin’” on Juan Pablo, here’s another video of him causing a multi-car pileup in the 2007 Nextel Open…

Juan Pablo Montoya got the 2007 Nextel Open off to a messy start,causing a multi-car pileup off of turn 2.

Montoya started 5th and took Dave Blaney’s spot on the start on a three-wide move.

A multi-car pileup ensued.

The crash took out David Gilliland, Joe Nemechek, Paul Menard, Jon Wood, A.J. Allemendinger and Scott Riggs
