I thought this was kind of cool in a caring sort of way as Ty Gibbs lost his Dad at a young age too. Ty was 20 y/o if I recall correctly. Of course, Brexton was much younger at 11 y/o.

Here is a portion of Samantha Busch’s instagram story today explaining how much Ty Gibbs has become a mentor to Brexton. pic.twitter.com/yaLyGicQpf

Herbst

Hurricane looked like he was shot out of cannon on this restart

Bad Hocevar

Not sure that's Hocevar's fault. Blaney blocked and cut him off. Thats Bristol baby.

Nice driving by Logano to take that race.

Bristol baby. Now that it's not a Toyota freight train and everyone is even the season has finally gotten fun.

Blaney did it to himself. Good luck trying to block Hocevar there. What happened happens 100% of the time.

Watching all the vids, Hocevar landed at least 2 haymakers. Blaney had a big cut over his eye.

All the interviews after, Hocevar didn't look like he had a mark on him. He has about 8" on Blaney. Like Obi Wan told Anakin, "you can't win. I hold the high ground".

Like him or hate him, Hocevar is easily the most talented young driver in the series. He's holding his own with the mega teams and doing it in way lesser equipment. He reminds me of a very raw Kyle Busch. Talent with no end and extremely arrogant.

Put him in an HMS or Gibbs car with the best toys and tech and he would be scary.

I watched the replay last night after I commented (was watching Ole Miss-LSU) Not a fan of Hocevar, but I can't really pin that wreck on him.

I have a 12 sticker on my truck too, but Blaney looks like he is in panic mode in the big picture. Hocevar was racing pretty clean last night (contrary to his reputation and it being Bristol) and had some exchanges that were fun to watch.
