Early in the second stage of the NASCAR Cup Series race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway Denny Hamlin, Christopher Bell and Ty Gibbs were battling for position.
The battle went on for over a dozen laps, but ended with Gibbs in the Turn 1 wall off the nose of Hamlin’s No. 11.
Both drivers expressed frustration about the situation, with the incident itself coming under scrutiny.
Was Hamlin in the right in his involvement, or did he overstep against a teammate?
