Hocevar’s innovative use of a phone camera has also ignited questions about his choice within the fanbase. While some have directed him to use a GoPro for better results and a clearer stream, some have asked NASCAR to take a cue and do something similar for the fans.

GoPro has been used to create and store multiple sporting activities, including extreme sports like mountain biking, skiing, and diving. A helmet view of all the drivers would be great for continuously streaming on any platform. It looks like NASCAR might have to pay closer attention to what’s brewing in the fandom.
