Joey Logano In a way, Dale Earnhardt Jr. Saturday afternoon.
The triple champion of the Nascar Cup Nascar series is a polarizing figure. It may be because he is a hard-free runner without an excuse. It may be because he wins a lot. Maybe it’s because of how He wins.
Nevertheless, the New Hampshire is its original track and Logano can always count on the applause of this market above all the others. Thus, by capturing the post for the mobile 1 301, and being covered by cheers, Logano shouted and gave a handgun.
It was a bit unusual for a post.
“I like to win,” said Logano with a laugh at a press conference afterwards. “This part has not changed over the years. It’s difficult. It has been honestly more difficult over the years, just because the field is so close and I think that part of the emotion is that we are in New Hampshire. … Fans are delighted.
“It’s really cool. It doesn’t happen everywhere. Like, only here, so I love it. It’s a little more exciting when you can win the post when the whole gallery is happy for you. It’s a little careful.”

And of course, Logano has a healthy fans base throughout the country, but those who do not like it I really don’t like her And he can’t really understand why even if he is happy as long as they feel something.
“I fear the day they say nothing,” said Logano. “It’s the worst.”
As long as they make noise, as Dale Earnhardt Sr. said, not that Logano understands why his detractors are so passionate.
“I don’t understand because I don’t know why,” he said. “I would like to understand why a little more. I feel like I was misunderstood.
Not focused on enemies
Logano is famous for one of the most beautiful humans in the garage, but is sadly one of the driest drivers once he has put the helmet. As a result, perception is that Logano is two sides.
“I guess this is the only reason I can try to understand it,” said Logano. “I don’t understand it completely, but there are a lot of 22 fans. As a company, we focus too much on enemies. We do this in general and many times, it’s just stronger than applause, but when you look at everything-sales in freight carriers or if you just look in little-harsh, there are a lot of yellow things there.
“There are a lot of Shell / Pennzoil stuff there. Although we were talking too much about enemies, there are a lot of 22 fans and I am happy to have each of them. As I said, however, it is good when I come to Loudon because I represent, I want all those who live here. I have the impression that you are looking for the birthplace.”
And right now, he feels like Dale Earnhardt Jr. in 2004.
“You should encourage the guy in the hometown and it’s fun to enjoy it,” said Logano. “This is the only time I feel a bit like Dale Jr. – Just a little. It’s super cool. It’s really good to be Dale Jr. that I learned.”
