At first it looks like Keselowski was attempting a pass Hamlin ala Taladega in April. At that time Carl Edwards said, “Brad was doing everything he was supposed to be doing to win.” True, at that time and place. They were in a fairly straight part of the track and Keselowski was beside Edwards, who tried to block not knowing how close the other car was. There was a yellow line rule in effect and Keselowski wasn’t going below it. Just a “racing thing”. Keselowski had the position there.

I see it much different at Dover, Hamlin and Keselowski were entering a turn and running nose to tail. As Hamlin was coming down entering the turn and running his line, Keselowski made a move to his inside. He did not have the position this time and bumped Hamlin spinning him into the wall. With no yellow line rule at Dover he could’ve went lower to get through the turn. If his car was stronger he may have got by him on the straight, however these guys are really fighting for postition near the end.

These two should talk about it and let it go too. Hamlin will be effected during the Chase with this in his head.

Looked to me like just a racing deal – but, right or wrong, sure does sound like Denny is taking his eye off the big picture.

Denny said the the cup drivers said this, funny thing is Denny has no names to go with it. Easy to say, hard to prove. Will guess Denny never wrecked anyone getting to a win, like say this year. He never ran into Brad like say this year or last. He wants Brad to Man up, Brad said he was not going to take being push around. Not hard to figure Brad feels no talk is necessary. I would say there is enough clueless to go around.

Maybe Denny should worry more about racing his own car and not Brad’s. I think BK has shown that he races more like Dale Earnhardt, Sr. than Mark Martin. Deal with it. If he’s that easily upset, perhaps being in the ‘chase’ is just too hard on his nerves.

Really? Crazy K? Are you serious? Get a clue buddy, racing is not about making friends, never has been. Brad has shown good talent, and handled himself very well with everything that has been said about him. Hamlin is a whiner, plain and friggin simple. He was just pissed he got showed up by a younger driver, and in the Nationwide series no less. If Hamlin’s pannies are in such a wad racing with “inexperienced, young drivers”, then he needs to take his happy @$$ back to the Cup level and quit tainting the JV racing series. You have a full time Cup ride, why do you go down into the lower levels, just to try and win over drivers with not as much talent. Sad, truly sad. Cup drivers being in Nationwide is a whole nuthua discussion, but, I cant hate too much when Cup drivers are in their OWN equipment (JRM, KHI, NEMCO.) But when ole Denny cant even hold his own in the lower tier series, I think he might need to take a look at himself, and quit trying to make a villian out of a young kid trying to make it. Oh, and by the way, since when did Kyle Busch and Joey Logano become the mature ones @ JGR?

The object of racing is to go fast and pass everyone. Anything else is of no interest to me. If Brad can drive fast I am all for him doing it. If there are some wrecks along the way so be it. What do you think happens once in a while when you are racing. If you never wreck you aren’t really pushing it. Give me a track full of hot headed lead footed drivers anyday versus this over managed uninteresting taxi cab single file boring follow the leader mentatlity.

Wow some of you are clueless. Whoever said the media and fans agree with Keselowski your stunned hahaha!!! Brad has made himself a bad name amoungst the Cup series drivers already. NOT just Denny Hamlin. Kevin Harvick anyone? Not to mention even JUNIOR, HIS BOSS has made comments that Brads ego has gotten way too big! Brad will never be on Dennys level of racing or talent. Brad is just going to be another could of been unless he gets it in check!

Hamlin is a great driver one of the most consistent in the cup series other than the Hendrick crew. He calls it like he sees it and doesn’t hold bad. Brad did over drive his car going into the corner and couldn’t admit it.
Hamlin will wipe the floor with him next year and every year after – if Hamlin had a few people in his shop to share racing notes with he’d be a lot better than sixth. Keep your eye on the 11 this year – this Chesterfield man is going to show you how to take home the title.
