Questions like this are why Kyle Busch eventually started treating the "journalists" with such disdain.
Tony Stewart beat him to it.
Fake News! NASCAR loves this kind of drama!
They are just doing their job and Chase is a crybaby!!!
@@ensignstephens6307 Go find your binky and let the adults comment
Doug Cutler, arrogant anus Kryle Busch has no respect for anybody but himself.
I love how Chase always shuts down the media / journalists and is just respectful and doesn’t feed the drama 💙
Discipline.
I think It's quite clear he's pissed about the situation and doesn't want to feed into their frenzy because it's just drama for the team
I think it’s quite clear the media are making a bigger deal out of this than it is. If you watch these interviews often then you know that is a normal chase interview.
The guy makes millions of dollars a year and there’s hundreds of thousands of people with number 9 apparel on who want to read and hear about him. The least he can do is sit through some tough questions at the end of his work day
@@austinsanders6475 only they aren't tough questions...they are moronic
Exactly. Right after Chase got outta his car, you could see him talking to Rick H and could see that he was alittle upset but like Kyle said "Chae wouldve done the same". It is what it is...they both want to win...Chase has already locked up the regular season points...Rick Hendrick is the one cashing the big check at the end of the day, so im pretty sure he doesn't care either way.
@@michaelpawlowski8325 yeah I 100% agree. I think upset and upset at Larson are different.
This is great to see!! 2 drivers at the top of their game, going head to head within the same organization! Reminds me of Jimmie and Jeff!
Absolutely the same between the 2 drivers! I believe it’s going to make for better racing!
Jeff is in with Hendrick
That's a great observation. Jeff and Jimmie had some heated racing.look where they are now in Nascar history.
Race fans, take note. This is how two Champions/Gentlemen handle a touchy situation. Good on them.
Geez, this shows more of the media trying to start drama and escalate stuff than what is between Kyle and Chase.
Exactly.
drama is good for views
Just like the mainstream media does every day .
No , the problem is this guy being fake , what’s wrong with saying I hated that I’m mad or disappointed. It’s bad for sport, just be yourself
If you were media. What is the number one question that would be asked after that race? HINT: the exact one they ask. Its not the media stirring anything up. Thats a question the media would look foolish for not asking. The problem is Elliot's attitude. He's being a dick because he is upset. Quite the difference between chase and Kyles answers
This is why Im a big fan of both, Keep it up
Agree 100%
The reaction by both of them is why and what makes them great champions and class A race car drivers
@@earlclaborn clearly you dont know who Kyle Larson is and what he does for the sport of racing.
@@kylepurks9654 I thought the libs said Larson was a racist so who cares about him right
@@earlclaborn self centered attitude?😂
@@earlclaborn clearly a bitter chase fan 😂
Huh, I guess @Earl Claborn has left the conversation, and took his comment with him, lol🤣🤣
Anybody remember the quote, “I think ol 4 time is a little upset” (Jeff towards Jimmie) ? Nothing but friendly competition between two great drivers who just so happen to be teammates.
Media sure does like to try and start something here. They both race for a living, both know what a win means to their team and sponsors, and understand the gloves are off the last few laps of a race. The media needs to let this go, these two men will sort this out amoung themselves. After all, as seen in the interviews, they are both professionals!
I'll give Chase credit for staying calm about this whole deal. I'm a Larson fan, that said...Chase has a reason to be pissed off...big time. To just keep deflecting the questions is pretty respectable, as he tries not to keep the drama going by giving the media the real cold hard take
Chase is being sarcastic
It's racing, Kyle was racing for the win. End of story. Chase is good, but a prima-donna. Kyle's talent and desire is way beyond Chase's.
@@3818r Relax. Chase was still being sarcastic and it's funny
I don’t see why Chase should be upset , for more than it takes to get out of his car , period !
Chase is just waiting to put your boy into a wall. It's coming.
Don't remember Dale sitting with fellow drivers over a Latte telling them how sorry he was to move them out of the way !!!
THAT'S BECAUSE RICK AND JEFF WOULD BE ON CHASE SIDE OVER LARSON.. CHASE WAS REALLY UPSET BECAUSE HE LOST THE RACE. EVEN THOUGH HE WOULD OF DONE THE EXACT SAME THING FOR THE WIN.
Give him hiz blanket and his bottle then.. upset..lol
The media just has to make this a fight, it was racing and they are both professionals.
It’s called a race for a reason , team mates or not they were both racing for the same spot . That’s it .
What gets me is how the media trys and start stuff. My cousin was pissed also and said I ain't pulling for larson no more that was bs he locked the brakes and slid into my door. He doesn't nor does the media realize larson comes from a background of dirt racing and still does race on dirt. When you race with your buddies the only people you want to beat regardless if you door them or not is YOUR buddies. Everyone knows that even though you care for the guy that you just bumped doors with yes he might be pissed off at you for that. That coming Monday or Tuesday he's gonna be right back there in the shop helping you fix his car and your own. Dirt racing, where teamates doesn't really help out where your points are if he wins or doesn't does not matter one bit at all. Regardless. You race the race for you. That's the way the local races of dirt has always been and always will be.
Honestly, if Larson didn’t cut him
Off chase would’ve definitely won. He wasn’t trying to crash him. He was trying to hold his position and keep chase from winning. I don’t see a single thing wrong with that. This if the definition of hard racing.
Larson was a coward today.
It's not just dirt racing. U seen some of the crazy moves in the Indy 500 or some of the f1 GPs they go crazy
@@bigrooster6893 he is no coward. He is trying his best. I ain't gonna argue about this but he's no coward.
Exactly. Larson did what he had to do to win the race. He didn’t wreck him, he didn’t dump him, he didn’t spin him out, it was literally just hard racing!
Chase is a team driver! He’s my favorite driver since Gordon retired. He’s going to win a lot of races and more championships
My thoughts exactly. My favorite since Gordon retired also.😁
@@earlclaborn chase has a likable personality and he doesn’t want any drama in the organization. Larson did to chase in Fontana California too but Chase is still carrying himself very well.
@@Peony_herbabies914 Right on!!1
Basicly they both politely said, quit trying to cause problems over a racing deal. We both can't win
You saw a completely different interview with Chase than many. His tone and facial expression tell a completely different story.
@@jtcarter2967 lmao 😂 you clearly don’t watch many interviews. He was his same monotone self. Nothing else. Quit feeding into the medias exaggerations.
This is the media trying to stir up some shit.
Absolutely the media is the only ones making a big deal out of this.
@@alextrifs that’s not true. He’s upset. Rick and Jeff weren’t there at chase’s car for not reason after the race.
If there isn't any animosity between these 2 exceptional drivers, the "reporters" surely try to create it. They always keep stirring the pot to create drama.
I can guarantee it's animosity between the two. No way you mess your teammate over twice in a year. Not considering years past where Kyle cuts Chase zero breaks
Chase is showing some sarcasm. Love it!
Chase is awesome!!!!! Says it all without saying anything negative.
You can tell chase is clearly pissed. Just great competitor. I applause both drivers for how they handled this and the questions. Kyle busch should take note.
What total BS hypocrisy form these comments. If it had been a JGR driver or most any other team all these people would jump all over their shit calling it dirty racing. But its Kyle Larson or Hendrick so it called good racing, What BS.
@@andytn6507 you can bet any driver in Larson's position would have done the same.
@@TheMILVET not saying they wouldn't. I'm saying if it was a JGR driver doing it to Chase everyone would say it was dirty driving. But for the Hendrick drivers its ok.
Kyle, don't apologize. It's a race, on the track, all bets are off. May the best man win. And you're the best
Kyle went in to fast just like Indy and slid the tires and pushed Chase out. If he had control of his car he wouldn't of got ahead of Chase. He would have lost.
Agreed because Chase wouldn't apologize. Driving recklessly, intentional wrecking someone is one thing, locking your tires and sliding into someone else is different. Yeah someone got their feelings hurt but that's racing.
@@4442tom WhaWhaWha
These media remind me when someone from the media would shove a mike into the drivers door after the race and were surprised with the drivers attitude when they thought they were doing their jobs. I recall when Rusty Wallace grabbed the mike away from the media person and gave him what for. Larson admitted he locked up his fault, but going for the win. Chase was trying to be polite since neither had seen the video(obviously) and not hang the dirty laundry out for all to see.
So did anybody pick up on why Chase kept bringing up Bristol? If you can't think why, think back to last year.
Glad I’m not the only one who picked up on this.
It’s crazy Larson can never take blame.
He's entitled
@@JJA1987 nah! He's just that fkin good.
@@mikebertinshurtow If he's that good then why did he admit the only way to get by him was to move him out of the way? If he was truly that good then he could have gotten by him clean with 5 to go
@@ampandguardfan88 He got by him, didn't he? All part of racing, no different than the bump & run, used by all. (Including your Golden Boy Chase.)
@@mikebertinshurtow So if Larson is leading next week with say 65 laps to go and on a restart at Daytona no less...Chase turns Larson into the wall and goes on to win the race. He says hey that's the only way I feel we could have gotten by him. So you'd be OK with that? You obviously don't watch enough racing and understand how it works...on the last lap I see no problem with moving someone out of the way but if you have to do it with multiple laps remaining then you know you weren't good enough to win the race
I don't understand why the media seems to be trying to make a mess out of this and stir a pot that barely even exists if at all....
Yeah sure your team mates but that doesn't mean you don't trade paint and try for the lead when your sub 10 laps in... To not do so is just rediculouse especially when Hendric wants all his driver's to get as far in the chase as they can. Hendrics ideal championship run is all Hendric cars at the final four. This just helps move that goal forward.
They always do these days. Anytime driver's have a problem on the track , the first thing the media does is try to make a UFC fight out of it. They need TV ratings and fan's so badly that the media does this constantly.
@@jimmybrown_GT500 The media thinks that drama is the best thing going so they look to find the drama in every situation even if there isn't much to find. Chase is pissed he lost the race but I would bet he would do the same thing if the roles were reversed. They are both paid to do their best to win. End of story.
Right on!! Rick Allen and Burton should start a soap opera.…a couple of stupid drama queens!
The real story should have been that Chastain took out Dillon again and caused the 91 to crash. Of course, they gave him his lap back with the stupid lucky dog. i fucking hate the lucky dog. If you can't stay on the lead lap, you need to use pit strategy. Regardless of what you may think, before the lucky dog, nobody ever got their lap back. The field was supposed to be frozen
This is a very serious problem for Hendrick and Gordon. You can see by Chases tone and facial expressions, that he is going to take Larson out in the playoffs. This situation doesn’t bode well for Hendricks. It’s apparent many of you haven’t been around long enough this type of situation has been seen before and just like then eventually one of these drivers leave on their own or get let go.
Everything’s great just looking forward to getting back into my race car
Remember in Rocky when the journalist gets fed up with Rocky being nice and asks " Can you tell us something derogatory about the champ?? " Haha. This video reminds me of that.
When you have 2 top notch drivers on a top notch team these are things that will happen going for a win at the end of the race.
OMG. It's just racing man. The intimidator would've told them that's it. See ya next week 😎🏁
My thoughts as exactly!
Remember at Pocono when Jeremy Mayfield bumped Dale to win the race. Dale came up to him before the next race and slapped him on the back. Dale looked at him and said, "I just paid you back." The media loves to stir things up. They kept telling Jeremy that Dale will get you back.
For real
@@jeffpatton2866 That's right. Dale knew Jeremy used that move he learned from him. Best I remember, the kid never tried that move on him again 👍
Thats Racing to Win.
I keep thinking this is getting blown way out of proportion. But then I keep coming back to what Harvick said after Martinsville 2020. These guy would rather race for wins and the regular season championship, than the actual championship
Your a good man Chase! 👍
When asked if he thought he made any mistakes I'm sure Chase was being sarcastic when he answered "yeah, i'm sure it's my fault". Chase didn't make any mistakes as far as driving and pure racing goes. Where he did make a mistake, is when he thought he could trust Larson not to do what he did. After the Auto Club race back in February where Larson flat out dirty blocked Chase into the wall and then claimed he didn't see him (bullsh*t), and now with this incident at Watkins Glen, Chase now has a better picture/idea on how to really trust Larson going forward. Hint: he can't. As with Ross Chastain and some of his antics, those kinds of antics have "and will" cost Larson dearly. Once you lose the trust factor, especially of a teammate, get ready for changes in how they race you back and ready for the shit show that will eventually find you.
Lol cry
Excuse me but ask Chase or Kyle when they are on the race track it's every man for himself each one has sponsor each one has a crew working really hard for THEIR driver the team mates go out the window it's who ever can get to the checker flag first
Ok, welp, we'll see how Larson takes it when he's on the receiving end. LOL
@@shirleypoplo7715 so true so Larson won't be mad when Chase puts him in the wall at Daytona. It's coming.
@@shirleypoplo7715 you said it, RACE track. You race the other drivers on the track not run straight into them and call it “doing what you had to do”. Earnhardt and the older drivers would use a bumper to get you out of shape or use air to get you loose but you hardly ever seen them doing the kind of things these guys call hard racing. One is part of racing the other is chicken 💩. Intentionally over driving a corner and pushing another driver straight off of the track isn’t hard racing it’s cheap. I like Larson but it was a dumb move and unnecessary seeing as how he’s in good position for the playoffs already. It was short sighted and it WILL come back to haunt him in the championship race. Elliot has a Golden Horseshoe up his ass and always comes out ahead in the situations when the dust settles. Just ask Hamlin or Harvick.
Chase had a Kyle Busch interview! Hell yea!
When did it become a gentleman's game. Your racing to win you go for it.
They are trying to copy f1, but here's the thing. NASCAR IS NOT F1. I love both equally but in nascar bump and runs are ok tbh
Listen nascar media corp, Chase is not frustrated at Kyle Larson, he’s frustrated at y’all bombarding him about the restart and trying to start “drama” 😑
I’m reading that differently. I believe he’s absolutely frustrated with Kyle. He may also be frustrated with the media but make no mistake about it, he is flaming mad at Larson. Radioactive should be telling on Tuesday.
Fr even knows it's hard racing the media and his fans start to much drama
@@misterslideways And he can be mad for a few hours and then get over it cause giving up your best chance at a pass, clean or otherwise. Teammate. Or otherwise. Is just stupid.... Especially when Chase alreadh has several wins and Larson struggled to grab his Second this year.
Shit I still don't know how Byron got two at year start.
He most certainly is - This is the 2nd time this year that Larson has done something stupid
he pissed off at him i hope chases puts larson in to the wall
W to that reporter who asked about next week and changed it
Jeff Gordon is like hell yes go for win.
The press is no different in sports either always trying to sling mud. Chase was a class act in this interview.
I can't stand Elliott, but you're absolutely right on this. You can try to draw conclusions, but at the end of the day, he gave what he gave in the interview and that's all you really have to go on. You know there's more going on, but you can't prove that.
@@RedWingsninetyone I'm no Elliott fan either but if he drove a Ford I would most likely be.
@@danielroberson5421 ehh, I'm not brand loyal, especially when it comes to NASCAR. I grew up a GM guy before turning to Ford and ultimately buying a Toyota.
Chase seems to be the champion that wants to keep the racing on the track and leave the drama for mid-day television where it belongs.
Chase can’t wait for Bristol and I know why do you
He'll give Larson his payback there
Same place Elliott gave Larson the win last season
Chase only has himself to blame...
@@deliriouswhome1 How's that? His teammate dive bombed him into a corner. He had no chance of making that turn at that speed.
@@deliriouswhome1 Larson in press conference admitted he new the only way he could pass chase was making contact. It ain’t racing if it’s intentional. He moved chase on purpose
How many different reporters can ask the same question, kudos to the guy who asked about Daytona
Good hard racing love it
Why would you choose the outside lane on a right hand turn?
Casey Hepler, his choice, not yours. Leader gets the position choice during a restart, PUTZ.
@@sergeantmasson3669 And he lost...Good choice
@@kenhigdon1123 Oh well. No doubt that Larson is better than Elliott anyway.
IF YOUR A RACER AND YOU DONT DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO WIN YOUR IN THE WRONG BUSINESS. HE'S A WINNER PERIOD.
yeah a dirty racer especially with his teammate him and chastain will reap what they sow
You're right if he did it on purpose. He didn't though.
You don't lock up the brakes to move somebody and you don't proceed to win and not be happy about winning on the front stretch if you did it on purpose.
YOUR CORRECT. YOUR PAID TO WIN
I don't know how many others have noticed, but Kyle Larson has been using his car to either protect his position (using the right rear panel to shove someone into the wall, like he did with Chase, Kurt Busch and one other) or, Kyle Larson pushes people out of the way like he did with Chase and Ty Dillion. If Larson's last name is Chastain, everyone would be pissed off about his driving.
Anyone with one eye who doesn't hate Chastain would have also seen that Keslowski ran him into Dillon causing Kimi's wreck too! Karma will get the haters.
You did right Kyle. Go for the win!!!
Itimidatetor "Dale Earnhardt" style racing is awesome! NASCAR prefers being talked about trust me!
Good race.
They both are good
Reporters trying to create problems and drama… moving his teammate out of the way isn’t a good look, but it was for the win. That was a 50/50 corner.
Maybe we watched different races. I saw AJ help and push Larson ahead of Chase . In his interview AJ even said the guys from behind came up very aggressive . Larson on the other hand said he's not proud of the way he overtake Chase , still is a win and they are racing for it . It can only be one at the end . If anyone else did that it will be called racing ,. If Larson did it it turned in to a dramatic narrative , why ?
I saw it ! It was an awesome race for the win! Media loves to blow stuff up they think it’s their job😜
AJ wasn't pushing larson anymore on the heavy breaking and was half a car length back when larson locked them up.
Larson made a mistake and took away elliotts chance to win so chase has every right to be pissed. And it'd the 2nd time something similar has happened this season and larson won both times.
@@danielchai6145 This is racing at high speeds not slot car racing . Did you expect Larson to hit the brakes right after the push ? Get behind a wheel of a race car and see . Bicycle racing does not count .
@@twoknightfall3722 I think it's fair for chase to expect his teammate and cup series champion to not run out of talent into turn 1. I could lock up the brakes into turn 1. I'm not good enough to get through there cleanly but Kyle larson should be.
One classy driver !
Don't really pull for Chase but love the way he handled this. He is obviously pissed but doesn't play into the drama machine. Keep it between the drivers and out of the press.
Love Chase responses. They are both in playoffs.
Bam. Shit happens. Often. Especially in a cup race.
I'm like this NASCAR needs some ballistic even if it's with teammates let's go racing boys
Revenge in Bristol!!! Stay Tuned!! Que the music
Look everyone...i know Larson is trying to keep it clean. But rubbng is racing have you all forgotten about that? It's been like that sence the first generation. Plus it's the new generation there still learning! I don't see why a lot of people arguing about Larsons talents. It makes really mad.
It's called RACING for a reason
I am a huge Chase Elliot fan!!!!! He has got to learn that he is no longer Batman/A team at team Hendrick, he is Robin/B team. I believe if he will ever come to grips with that, then he will win a lot of races.
Alot of truth in that. I've heard rumors he was not particularly happy that HMS signed Larson. He doesn't have Larson's pure talent but he doesn't need to have it as long as the cars are better and this year, Chase's cars are better.
He’s literally the Batman this year he literally has 4 wins and probably should have 5 or 6 and he’s the regular season champ he’s definitely the Batman this year💀🤣
@@chickentender4791 yea you right but Daddy Larson taught him another lesson Sunday and took win number 5 away. Mark em up!!! That’s 2 this year for Larson letting him know who Daddy is
@@treybecktrey Chase has been better this year in like every stat Larson didn’t let Chase know anything and he teach him a lesson he literally ran him off the track lmao both of his wins he had to either wreck or run Chase of the track💀🤣
@@chickentender4791 Exactly it’s passed due for him to run Larsons ass off the track
not crazy about chase but he talked like a man today
Winners win.
Do what’s necessary. Apologies later. Not saying it’s right, but life is violent.
Go for it or lose
Winners are those that know how how to drive and not lock the front tires up to use up someone else.
You deal with it in the playoffs that's how it's done
Obviously pissed off, but unwilling to feed the drama being created by the media. Classy interview by Chase.
Chase really thought Bristol was next week 😂😂
This is why i think they should do away with multicar teams you can't expect your team mate to run second all day and then roll over and let you win because you are. You have no team mate when going for the win you should race them just like everybody out there that isn't a team mate. Kyle did what he should have done race to win.
Chase is a pro, well played
I seriously just want to see the final restart!!!! If it's this controversial, why has it not been posted yet?
Kyle just drove it in deep and took that spot from Chase. I loved the move from Kyle, there was nothing wrong with what he did and teammate or not it’s the final restart on a very aggressive turn 1 where people dive bomb you if they’re close enough. Kyle did what anybody else would have done if they were on the inside line at Watkins Glen on a restart with 3 laps to go. It’s a racing deal. Chase would have drove it in deep like that also if he was inside on a restart with 3 laps to go.
If the roles were reversed Chase would have charged into the first corner the same way. Maybe the outcome is the same, maybe not. I’m not a fan of either driver, but it was hard racing for a win. Why are fans upset with this? I believe a lot of this fuel is because of who came out on the short end of the stick. If it had been the 18 or 11 or 22, nobody says a word.
And what proof do you have to support this claim. I don't think I've seen him run over his team mate or non-teammate like this all season
good answer, to get the win it was required.
You can see the difference in maturity in each interview. Chase Elliott knows he pulls crap on people all the time and you can tell he doesn't like it when it's done to him....chase is definitely not his father
This is just good hard racing, no apologizes necessary. No one should have expected anything else. The media, as usual, are just trying to create more than is here.
This interview is the reason why people hate the media.
Just hard racing chase is a good sport but it is racing for a win and he said Bristol again😂😂😂😂 love this guy lol
Hes a cry baby
@@yuriorlov47 Let me introduce you to Kyle Busch.
@@GlazedSweetRoll 🤣🤣🤣
Just another time where the media is trying to start something. These guy may both race for HMS, BUT this is racing….. Fan of both of these drivers. Kyle made a racing move and won.
It was a great ending to a great fun race!
@@jamieseach8911 yes it was! I enjoy it!
You can tell Chase is irritated, he's irritated at the media and their stupid questions
He’s irritated with Larson’s moves
It’s racing. NASCAR. They are supposed to bounce off each other, especially for a win. Been happening since NASCAR started.
Used up on exit? You used him up on entry. You can guarentee it'll come full circle, too.
Larson did nothing that Dale Sr wouldn’t have done. If Dale had done this (and he did it many times!!), fans would be cheering for him.
So it was like a light bulb went off in my head the Bristol thing with Chase when he said Bristol not Daytona. He blocked Harvick at Bristol so Larson could win. Chase is just epic in his interviews lol.
Make no mistake Chase will not let this go unanswered. Larsen had one chance to win knock chase out of the groove. He is not Chase's team mate anymore
No, sadly he most likely will. I love his attitude and mentality of just move on and focus on winning the next race, but I think he needs to drop the nice guy mentality and start racing guys the way they race him.
@@Kartkid024 Honestly I hope in today's meeting that he absolutely goes nuts on him and gets right in his face it's gotta be done
Hard racing for a win. Chase either needed to get a better jump on the start or take the inside lane. I just wish had a better run up the Esses where he could have stayed 2nd and given Larson a race for the win. 5 probably still hangs on but it would have been fun.
Same questions week after week after week.
Plain and simple, I took out my teammate to go for the win. Drove it in to hard, on purpose, to move out the 9 for the win. Done. I'm sure somewhere down the line there will be a payback coming in some manner. It doesn't need to be taking him out. It could be not helping him when he needs it. Sure Chase is hot with Kyle, for the second time, but glad Hendricks and Gordon cooled him down before the media could get to him and stir the pot. These drivers never forget.
I don't think larson did it on purpose. He would've been celebrating if he did. There was no celebrating on the front stretch afterwards. He knew he had aggressive guys behind him and he got in his own head and got in too deep. If it was on purpose he woulda done it on the previous restart in the same spot.
@@danielchai6145 Yeah, he got beat on the previous start so he knew he had to drive it in deeper and that would probably move the 9 over. He is to good a driver to make that mistake at that turn, that they all know is not an advantage being on the inside. He said it himself "he did what he had to do to win." You don't celebrate when you push the most popular driver out of the way, if your smart.
Larson is living rent free in chase head
Um its racing and Kyle made a race winning move. Congrats to the 5. Congrats to Chase as well. It’s all about winning thats why we watch
Teammates in a good place , I think not so while ask. If you have to win dirty twice , maybe it's not worth how you treat your teammates to just have your win.
Give Dustin a break, he's one of the best reporters in nascar and asked a really good question.
You can be pissed because he did what he had to do to win the race, or you could be pissed because he gave the 9 the win. If it had not been a Hendrick car on his outside, no one would be saying a thing about it. Wake up, people. This isn't F1, there are no team orders here.
And no one is asking why chase took the outside either... Like he had to know that it was coming
Yes there is. Rick told them all not to takeout a team driver going for a win.
@@dixieprice8853 NASCAR would throw a huge fine and points penalty, even for the almighty Hendrick Motorsports for ANY kind of team orders. You race to win, period.
@@lovejoyb20 maybe you need to inform Rick of that because he plainly and publicly stated it.
@@dixieprice8853 Whatever you say. There's a huge difference between hard racing, which is what happened to the leaders in both races this weekend, and "taking out" your team mate. If he had "taken out" Elliott, they wouldn't have both finished in the top FOUR. See Ross Chastain for examples of "taken out".
Fan speculation here, but does he keep saying Bristol as a "I held up Harvick for him and this is how I've been paid back"?
He’s telling Larson he isn’t making it out of the first round of the playoffs.
Stuff Happens but I thought it interesting when Chase mentioned Bristol but then.... I thought back to Kenseth and Logano 2015 at....Bristol. Maybe Chase was putting Larson on notice.
That 2015 incident was at Martinsville, not Bristol.
Or, could be that he knows he has the regular season title on lock down, getting those extra 15 points, that basically sets him good until Bristol, but if something bad happens at Darlington and/or Kansas, he'll have the back up plan for Bristol. Or could simply be what Chase literally said, that he misspoke. Also, the Kenseth and Logano incident in 2015 started in Kansas, and finished in Martinsville, not Bristol.
@@LionManatic Thanks for the correction but I guess what I meant was, short tracks are the place to take revenge if you feel the need to do so. In Chase's position it would be unwise, but for Kenseth he inflicted a heavy payback on Logano as it took him out of the playoffs.
They both are ok. And Chase won't really hold a grudge on him that's what he said. But I'm sure Larson never ment to shove Chase to hard.
There is a reason why Chase keeps saying Bristol
@@davidmcgaha7932 indeed. Because he's good at that race Luke Larson is aswell. But I think Chase has a little more skill in that race.
I wish Chase wasn’t such a corporate, company man. Say how you feel, dude. You got used up and it cost you 5 spots. Say Larson’s got one coming. Your team doesn’t like it? You’re the most marketable man in NASCAR. You got options if they think you’re a problem.
I hate the media dude. It's racing and things like this happen. Everyone is driving in deep to get the best position they can. The cameras didn't even show the mayhem in the back on that restart.
Chase is a class act
I agree with you, I respect reporters/ journalists but some of them insist on making the same stupid questions. It’s like they want to instigate a fight between them. I wish Chase would have asked him back “What would you have done, because whatever I did it did not work as I had it planned” I applaud both drivers , I like them both . Maybe next time Chase takes the right side lane..
Not my favorite driver but with answers like this I’m starting to like him more 😂
Like AJ said "Larson is the best race car driver on the planet right now" Elliot is rightfully upset but hey there was a lot going on with the restart so i would have been disappointed if Kyle did not go for the win seeing that Elliot was probably in the wrong lane with a lot of pressure on them both from behind. Great finish big congrats to Kyle Larson.. Media move on !!!!!!!!!!
Exactly right. Chase definitely chose a bad spot to restart. Additionally, we've seen Chase move teammates significantly more aggressively than that.
Chase acts like the new Kyle Busch so the media will continue to ask the obvious questions based on those child-like responses.
@@BigSkyGuyWhy That wasn't moving someone out of the lane, that was running them 3 lanes over the other side of the curb, lol....
Larson living rent free in Elliott mind
@@timclaus8313 I agree Larson would wreck him if he thought he might win the ra
@@timclaus8313 regardless, Chase would have done the exact same thing and he has.
Your Teams need to work together an go to Daytona an Win, it doesn't matter who wins it. I follow both your Teams an Bowman an Byron's Teams. It would be nice both can Win the same race but a 1st an 2nd or even 4th place finish is better than a DNF.
