NASCAR NEWS – Just minutes ago, Denny Hamlin ignited a firestorm in the NASCAR community with a blistering takedown of longtime rival Kyle Busch, shocking fans and insiders alike. During a press event ahead of the upcoming race weekend, Hamlin didn’t hold back when asked about Busch’s recent performances and public comments on the state of the sport.
“Kyle’s been running his mouth like he’s still a top contender,” Hamlin fired. “The truth is, the sport’s evolved — he hasn’t. It’s about time someone said it out loud.”
The outburst comes on the heels of mounting tension between the two veterans, who have a long and complicated history dating back to their time as teammates at Joe Gibbs Racing. Busch, now racing for Richard Childress Racing, recently criticized Toyota drivers, claiming they receive “unfair advantages” — a remark that evidently didn’t sit well with Hamlin.
“You can’t trash a manufacturer that made your career, then pretend you’re the victim,” Hamlin added, clearly fed up. “He’s bitter. And it’s showing on the track and off.”
The comments sparked an immediate reaction online, with fans divided between loyalty to Busch and support for Hamlin’s brutal honesty. NASCAR officials have not commented yet, but insiders believe this war of words could escalate as the season heads into its most competitive stretch.
With playoff stakes rising, this fresh feud between two former allies may become the sport’s most talked-about rivalry yet. Stay tuned.
