Wonderful video.
Fighting is love❤
Let them fight like hockey players. The first one to get knocked out loses.
just say you hate chastain
@sebrr I do. What are you going to do, punch me in the face?
Noah will just have to retaliate by Ross not finishing the races or if he does be laps down just like he did at dover drive thru him instead of around him sooner or later he might get the message
Noah was multiple laps down, ran out of talent, wrecked himself. Unless you are legally blind, there’s plenty of video to watch.
Noah shouldn’t have even BEEN in the racing line.
If Noah screws around on track, NASCAR will park him for a race or two. He needs to concentrate on learning how to race with the adults.
@Gary Jackson need to go listen to Tony Stewart on Kenny Wallace’s show and that’s how the old guard taught the newbies the way to race Noah wasn’t in his lane Ross pushed up the track which push the air on to Noah and into the fence and we all know Ross doesn’t know where the brake pedal is
@Charlie White Didn’t know there was lanes in racing. Thought you could run anywhere you wanted to
@charliewhite3992 Noah was multiple laps down. You get out of the way when you are multiple laps down. Everyone knows that. NASCAR is the only racing series that won’t park lapped drivers that refuse to get out of the way.
Noah wrecked himself. He’s driving over his head.
THEN he put his hands in Ross. Big mistake. Noah simply isn’t mature enough for Cup.
Ross is an aggressive race car driver. Get over it.
I’m a huge Stewart fan, especially now that he’s driving a fuel car, but he didn’t get in many fights. He TALKED about fighting.
Ross finished second in the championship last year, and is leading the points this year. He’s not the problem.
@Gary Jackson he was on the lead lap inside the Top 20. He only lost laps after he hit the wall and spun.
Ross Chastain drives like Dale Sr. And he is very effective, hell Chastain and Kyle bush would make one hell of a team
How many championships?
@Naz Idoura exactly
Noah needs to get better at driving the cup series car at the cup level. He did not get wrecked by Chastain at Talladega, he got loose and Chastain went underneath him. He left Noah plenty of room on the outside to control his car and Noah would have just shuffled to the back if he had control of his vehicle. In this case, Noah was barely tapped by Chastain. Chastain admitted to have a tight vehicle at the time, Gragson also apparently had a tight vehicle because he had a lane to work with and Noah couldn’t control his car.
The other thing Gragson needs to do better is control his emotions. This is the same dude that caused a seven car wreck in Xfinity on a Road Course because he got hit a few times by another car. The guy is an emotional time bomb. Those are the ones on the track that the teams should be worried about, not Chastain.
Amen!!
Lol nobody can control there emotions on a dirty driver if you were a driver you would have known
@ASHOC energy cup series , I mean, *looks at Chase Elloitt*, he seems to control his emotions well enough on and off the track. At least keeps it from the public eye.
The major dirty driving I saw on Sunday was Hamlin tagging Larson to win the race.
@ASHOCengerycupseries “dirty driver” Cry harder! Noah was multiple laps down, in the racing line, where he had no business being. He panicked and wrecked himself. He ran out of talent. Then he acted like a child and got spanked. He needs to grow up.
@Patrick Steckman I guess
Grip up on a dude except to be punched.
Is it me or is Ross Chastain getting into more fights than any other drivers
It’s just you.
Hes definitely been in more incidents than any other for sure. Fight no. But wreck related yes..if theres a car spinning 99 percent of the time ross was involved
Logano opening a Coke and taking a swig while watching the action
Some head injuries causes are more acceptable than others
I will say this. When Niah grabbed him first, Ross had free reign to punch Noah. If Noah kept his hands to himself, Ross would not have thrown the punch. Furthermore, the replay showed Ross never banged cars with Noah, and Noah was 5 laps down vs Ross being 5th, so why was Noah getting in Ross’s face.
Well put. Ross did nothing wrong not this time anyway
100%. Noah fucked around and found out.
Should have never put hands on Ross..and I agree with you Adam..your comment is spot on
When Ross gets hurt it’s NASCAR that allowed it to happen
Many drivers are waiting for the playoffs to “express their opinions” of Chastain.
if you put your hands on someone you should expect to get hands thrown at you
Poor Noah, daylight between him and the wall enough space between the cars to get through to put up a for sale sign and he feels pinched.
