Most exciting thing that happened. Stenhouse can might as well just head to the nascar hauler

Just glad that Hamlin couldn't pass Logano. If he did then it probably would have been over and that would have sucked.

Stenhouse has some fire!

Larsons a beast! Part of me wanted to see him win just for the sake of how amazing that would have been.

Hopefully the Fords keep this momentum going because I do want to see Buescher win a race.

I'm sure that they will make some changes before the All Star race next year. They always seem to.

Can hear the conversation a little clear. Ricky tells Kyle that he didn't touch him during the race....well, he sure did after the race! I forgot about Stenhouse Sr. getting involved also. Thats how much a lot seemingly happened within a short time.

Edit: Another angle



Can hear the post fight talk better. Stenhouse saying that he will wreck him at Charlotte.

There's only one thing in the world that can settle a dispute like this.

That's right.

Parking Lot Brawl.

Apparently Kyle was pissed that Stenhouse made it three wide on the first lap and forced him up the hill and into the wall. Ricky landed a decent shot; I'm surprised little fella could reach up that far.

I mean yeah, I haven't always been positive of Ricky but credit to him for standing on his own two feet and defending himself. I don't think that he was in the wrong with what he did on the track. It was racing... and the drivers knew before the race started that it would be hard to pass and that they should take every opportunity. Shorter race than usual.

After reading Kyles response to everything that happened it sounded like Kyles just frustrated that he has struggled a lot this year and hasn't had as good of a ride as others, which is understandable. He did end Ricky's day just because Ricky created a 3 wide situation though...

Between Kyle Busch and RCR things just seem "off" with them right now. Dude wrecked himself in the Truck Series.

The majority don't like mediocre crybaby douchebags

I mean he was top 5 in the fan vote, I say he’s pretty liked.

Stenhouse may face ban for swing at Kyle Busch

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. threw a right hook at Kyle Busch, and suddenly, an otherwise boring All-Star Race had NASCAR fans buzzing heading into next weekend's marquee Coca-Cola 600.

It’s some bullshit if they suspend him. NASCAR has been posting the shit out of it since it happened. Don’t hype it up then condemn it.

 

[Stellar]

...and really every opinion that I have heard from the NASCAR world has said things to hype it up if anything. I mean yeah, Stenhouse Sr. getting involved is not ideal but let the drivers handle situations themselves as long as they don't try to kill each other. Boys have at it.

 

[Tommy Bedlam]

Yep. If you wanna ban his dad for a few weeks, that’s fine. He shouldn’t have been involved and you can’t have family members fighting drivers.

Looks like Ricky Stenhouse is getting a fine. One crew member suspended for 8 weeks, another one for 4. His dad is banned from the track indefinitely. No punishment for Busch and the 8 team. Don't always get to say this, but NASCAR got it right IMO
