Ross Chastain and Ryan Blaney are once again involved in a heated discussion against each other. Last week’s race in Las Vegas will be remembered for the domination of an unidentified driver in his HMS car. However, behind the leaders, Blaney and Chastain were battling to prove who was superior. In the midst of this, another driver got involved in the situation and encouraged them to continue their rivalry on the track.
Blaney finished on the podium, while Chastain secured a fourth place after an intense battle with the defending champion. During their altercation, fans witnessed the Ohio native getting revenge by performing aerodynamic blocks. This created tensions between the two drivers and their rivalry spilled off the track.
Chastain received a penalty for speeding in the pit area and was trying to recover when he was hindered by Blaney. The former champion only added fuel to the fire. Harvick has a history of this type of behavior, as he was also involved in a similar incident with Brad Keselowski and Jeff Gordon. Fans hope the situation can be resolved quickly so that the drivers can focus on the next race in Phoenix this Sunday.
Harvick has achieved numerous victories in Phoenix and has a total of nine wins at the track in different divisions. Recently, he revealed the secret to a perfect lap at the racetrack on his Happy Hour podcast. As a former commentator, Harvick explained the strategies and racing lines that should be used on the track. Due to the track’s characteristics, overtaking can only be done on the front straight. Harvick advised the drivers to give it their all after the last turn and focus on getting a strong exit.
Despite Harvick’s recommendations, drivers will be prepared to engage in a battle in Phoenix. Fans around the world are eager and waiting for a new winner when the checkered flag is waved.
