As most of the garage is focused on Michigan, some are still thinking about the controversial incident at Nashville involving Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Carson Hocevar, resulting in Stenhouse’s first DNF.
Stenhouse was frustrated as he was in the playoff grid before the crash, and Hocevar has not contacted him. Hocevar has been stirring controversy this season but also impressed with a second-place finish at Nashville.
Jeff Dickerson of Spire Motorsports shared that Hocevar is doing well but could improve some aspects of his driving without slowing down. He praised Stenhouse and hoped for maturity from Hocevar.
Hocevar, fresh off a super late model race win, talked about seeking advice from Dickerson and focusing on improving communication and racing skills.
Overall, the incident has sparked discussion about Hocevar’s driving style and the need to find a balance between speed and clean racing.
