Eventually, Dale Earnhardt Jr. Do not understand what the incitement was used for Ty Gibbs eligible teammates in the race championship Denny Hamlin And Christopher Bell in a way that Finally, made him kick it on Sunday in New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
Earnhardt expressed his empathy towards Gibbs, because there were seasons in which he was the teammate who was to let his comrades pass and more easily drive out a championship, but simply could not finance a justification for the way he ran Bell and Hamlin.
This is particularly true given the way he destroyed his teammate Brandon Jones in the race for the XFINITY series in Martinsville in 2022.
“He was not a great teammate sometimes”, ” Earnhardt said on the podcast Dale Jr.. “He had a few moments, one of the most popularized, would be Brandon Jones in Martinsville, but there were entries with other people in certain Gibbs Xfinity cars.
“I just have trouble trying to understand Ty Gibbs.”
Earnhardt says he loves Gibbs to a personal level in everyone their interactions in person, but he simply did not understand what there was more difficult to pass than even those that his teammates run for the Tours championship from 100 to 111.
“I find it hard to understand how, what is his reason,” said Earnhardt. “What is your reason. You are not in the playoffs. You are his teammate. Like, let him go completely. Look, if I run my teammate, I let him go because all his crew, the team leader, the engineer, the team owner – all the employees of the team, such as the team director, the managing director, all those who are present are to see this.
“Will I really make all those who work on these cars, even for a few corners, will I make them see this? People at home, in the engine workshop, all the people who are sitting on their sofa, the employees of this operation, sitting at home and receive text messages. They receive SMS that say” what is he devil? ” “”
Earnhardt says everyone Joe Gibbs Racing were probably SMS each other or texts like that.
“You know, I just don’t understand,” said Earnhardt. “I don’t know what his reason is. As I can understand, maybe he is not a big fan of Denny. Maybe he and Denny don’t have much relationship. I don’t know. Maybe they have an excellent relationship, but that doesn’t seem like that.”
His producer then said that this does not explain how Gibbs also ran Bell and Earnhardt wondered if someone in the stable has a good relationship with him.
Earnhardt thinks that competition director Chris Gabehart and business management probably told Gibbs that it was not your day to do this.
“It’s too far for that,” said Earnhardt. “If it’s race 10 or other, well, but these are the playoffs and these are essential moments and critical positions. And in Denny, your teammate should not be the most difficult to pass on the race track in this situation.
“It fears to be a teammate of the playoffs when you have the other three in the playoffs. I live.
Earnhardt wondered “where the treatment” of Gibbs is. He said it is “so silly” to talk about this subject “which is common sense to do” in this situation. He said that “shouldn’t have happened.” And while Hamlin “should not have shed it”, Gibbs should never have placed it in this situation.
And finally, Earnhardt doesn’t even understand why Gibbs would do it even after Jones’ situation in 2022.
