Chase Elliott Sparks Controversy Naming NASCAR’s “Most Punchable Face” in Intense Showdown

Chase Elliott Sparks Controversy Naming NASCAR’s “Most Punchable Face” in Intense Showdown

In a thrilling revelation, NASCAR star Chase Elliott didn’t hold back when discussing the “most punchable face” in the racing world. Although he didn’t explicitly name the driver, many speculate it was directed at Denny Hamlin following their intense rivalry on the track.

The feud between Elliott and Hamlin reached its peak during the 2017 Martinsville fall race when Hamlin’s aggressive move caused Elliott to crash, leading to a heated confrontation post-race. Elliott later retaliated at Phoenix Raceway, contributing to Hamlin’s tire blowout and dashed hopes of advancing in the championship.

When asked about the punchable face comment by NASCAR Insider Jeff Gluck, Elliott cryptically responded, hinting at the ever-changing dynamics of rivalries in the sport. The 2018 season marked a turning point for Elliott as he clinched his first premier series win at Watkins Glen International, capping off the year with three victories.

However, Elliott’s career faced turbulence in the 2023 Coca-Cola 600 when he was suspended for a race due to a controversial incident with Hamlin. Despite denying any intentional wrongdoing, Elliott’s actions were deemed unacceptable by Hamlin, labeling it as a “tantrum” that warranted a suspension.

The 29-year-old driver faced further setbacks in 2023, missing six races due to injury from a snowboarding accident and ending the season without a win for the first time in years. Despite the challenges, Elliott has shown resilience this year with a stellar performance, boasting the best average finish record and recently breaking a 44-race winless streak at EchoPark Speedway.

As the NASCAR season unfolds, all eyes are on Chase Elliott as he navigates victories, rivalries, and redemption on the track.
