Dale Jr. Has Heated Argument About Denny Hamlin vs Ross Chastain | Top 10 Moments of 2022 

I loved that! 🤣

Need that on a T-shirt!

Agreed 100 percent!

not saying Mike's an idiot but Damn !!!

That was GOLD 😂😂😂😅

As a chastain fan Ross vs Denny is a great rivalry I hope it continues as respectful and hard racing moving forward

It cannot be incredible unless Kyle Petty deems it so.

Kyle Petty is a wishy washy, mealy mouthed S.O.B. who s reactions are faker than Michael Waltrip's hair. I 'm a Joey Logano Fan and if Denny wrecked Ross, then Chase wrecked Lajoie. Chase is not his father, who I liked.

😆😂😂

That's why Nascar has a 5 second delay on tv because of Jr at Talladega

Genuine conversation? One theory is literally so far out in left field that I started thinking this was staged for views. Love Dale though. He is 100% right. If this is a real argument, I can see how race-craft is only understood by the few, .... and not even all drivers.

@@gaccount2921 Do you really think he would ever say anything wrong ? Hes got more people watching him than anyone. Even Chase

Love the emotion too bad we weren't 20 years ago when there'd be a lot more than emotion on the track and after the drivers got out of the cars the way NASCAR was made

I'm glad im not the only one that doesn't like mike davis. I listen to the DJD for jr's input. He could take Mike off the air, fire him, whatever, I would still watch/listen. I cannot stand him, and I can't even listen to the podcast without headphones around my wife since she hates mike davis so much.

@@johnschwindt3049 Lol. I don’t hate Mike, I just feel his argument was over when he made that statement. He’s never been in a race car to know the mindset or nerves of a driver in that situation. Jr has, so I’m more inclined to believe him over Mike. Like him or not, he gets the channel views. Everybody needs a villain I guess.

Kyle Petty was a driver, too. 😉

@@xmbdesign7421 if you want to call what he did driving. 8 wins in over 800 races in a 30 year career

@JT Orrick HAHA, funny. Yeah that's irrelevant, he's been around the sport longer than Jr. So Jr's "I'm a driver so I'm right" argument doesn't hold a lot of water for me. Especially when he gets flustered when Mike simply asks for an example. This conversation just showed me that Mike is a better debater than Jr, regardless of who's right. Lol

the best part is JR like trying to process how one of his best friends can argue against this.

You can't talk about racing or argue racing with somebody who has clearly never actually driven competitively, let alone a NASCAR race in a prestigious car. Mike is the most uneducated dude to talk about racing with lmaoo

Hamlin deserved the year he got. Chastain did school him in having a set of balls.

And if anyone thinks the end of the season put an end to Denny and Ross then they’re oblivious. No doubt Denny has had all off-season to stew and plan accordingly. He’s veteran and smart enuff to put it to Ross without making it look like he’s going out of his way to put it to Ross. Unless Denny’s dumber than I’m giving him credit, OR there comes an instance where he loses his 💩 and stops thinking…. Can’t wait for the 2023 season y’all!!! Stay safe!

@@BC41B the latter is probably going to be the truth. Yes...he's a veteran driver, but he's far from being a smart veteran driver....js

Lol SKIPP

i said the same thing… lol

Mike is annoying!!

That was the truck race right

​@@erika_itsumi5141nah, it may have been the busch/Xfinity or cup. Jr gave Ky. Busch payback for an earlier race where Kyle spun JR out. And that's when Ky. Busch, or was a catalyst to, becoming public enemy #1. Although, since roughly 2020, I have become a fan of Kyle. As I think him being blunt and speaking the truth, and honest opinion, is awesome, for the sport, as all these young drivers are PR clones, bland as hell. And awesome because no fucks are given. Which is how I've started to feel in general.

Because he's half right Jr is right about s driver code (driver courtesy)_ Mike is right that you can lose your privilege to that courtesy

They were both right Jr is right about s driver code (driver courtesy)_ Mike is right that you can lose your privilege to that courtesy Not giving courtesy is not the same as retaliation

Dale Sr.was the best!! He never cut anyone any slack.. move over or get run over!! Lol

Except Georgia State... lol

I think you're wrong :-0) Jr is right about s driver code (driver courtesy)_ Mike is right that you can lose your privilege to that courtesy

Which makes Mike Wrong bc if you lose that courtesy you are being punished for whatever you did making it retaliation…

@@gotemlookin20 Withholding a benefit does not equal punishment. Any court would tell you the same. Driver courtesy is just like a part of racing, you earn it or you don't. If I fail to earn it I have no one to blame but myself.

@@2Truth4Liberty withholding a benefit from someone for any action or reason said person did is EXACTLY retaliation

@@markclemens9964 "withholding a benefit from someone for any action or reason said person did is EXACTLY retaliation" Incorrect. Treating each person acording to the level of respect they deserve is not retaliation. ---- The retaliation (or what one could call natural reaction) occurred at the point in time where the assessment of the level of respect deserved CHANGED. So, retaliation (in that sense) occured long before the race at issue even started. During the race there was only a giving of benefits or withholding of benefits as previously determined would be appropriate, no retaliation during the race.

Yes, someone willing to accept the truth@!! They were both right Jr is right about s driver code (driver courtesy)_ Mike is right that you can lose your privilege to that courtesy Not giving courtesy is not the same as retaliation

Best statement ever!!!! Lol

YES!! I remember Dale Sr. saying that with that smirk of his..lol OMG I loved it!!!

Amen. Some of most entertaining content we could ask for. Just one more reason Dirty Mo rocks!

If I'm understanding him correctly, Mike was saying that while contact took place, it wasn't necessarily retaliation from Denny, but hard racing. He was saying if this was any other scenario without drivers having beef, it'd just be a hard racing deal. Jr. saw it as retaliation pure and simple, just not overly blatant, but enough to send a message. Me personally, I think either way, Denny got retaliation whether it was intended or not, simply because you have to wonder or even think about it, and the seed of doubt is there. To Mike's point, unless Denny flat out admitted it, you can make the claim one way or the other. To Jr's point, he didn't cut him any slack which was uncharacteristic of how he raced everyone else that day.

Both do, there is middle ground Jr is right about s driver code (driver courtesy)_ Mike is right that you can lose your privilege to that courtesy

Mike knew he lost this debate, he was trying to say face.

Yes!!!

Except for Larson!?!??!! You Hamlin apologists are hilarious!!

I call BULL, if the driver is beside you on the outside he is not gonna lift. Believe it or not passes are made on the outside as well a the inside. If you watched races you would know if the driver on the inside can't pass without drifting into a car fully outside him, he should lift to avoid exactly what Denny did.

@@randyphillips559 you are talking about driver code, driver courtesy That exists between most drivers but not all When a driver WITHHOLDS courtesy , THAT is not de facto retaliation - that is part of racing too - gaining respect so you can get the courtesy And if you don't earn it - that is STILL racing

I agree with Mike, not intentional, just hard racing. As far as a driver code goes it becomes less important when another driver does not show you respect and in this case that may have played a role, but I don’t think it was as intentional as much as just hard racing.

@@randyphillips559 If I watched races, now that's funny... I've been watching nascar since the days when it was only on tv a couple times a year, usually on Wide World of Sports... I've been to multiple tracks to attend races, had renewable tickets to Dover for over 20 yrs. I've been to the Richard Petty Driving Experience THREE times, did Daytona and Charlotte back to back days... My 6 years in an online race pool, picking winners and top ten finishers, I have 3 championships, 2 second places and 1 third place... I think I know a little about racing.... If you knew as much as you think, you'd realize what you are describing is the norm, but this wasn't a normal situation. There were less than 20 laps to go, and the other person was Ross, who had wrecked Denny a few times this season already. Ross didn't deserve Denny's courtesy so Denny repaid the favor and treated Ross the same way Ross had been treating him... payback time!

Again if you watched Nascar you would see drivers on the inside lifting to avoid hitting car on outside all the time especially on occasions when outside lane is faster.

@@randyphillips559 I primarily watch NASCAR. I said no room was left with malicious intent, I also said the primary intent wasn’t for Chastain to clap the wall.
