Usually when I see angry drivers they're taking gloves and the helmets off while they're still driving the car when their day is pretty much over.... so to see JG with his helmet still on was interesting. Jeff and Matt seeem to be the most polite, angry rivals I've seen.

@Colddeed8 жыл бұрын
The incident at Chicagoland is almost the exact same thing as what happened with Logano at Kansas last year. Jeff's post-race comments are even similar, talking about how Matt was blocking him.
@nascarfanatic24257 жыл бұрын
Here was the difference, though: Joey Logano had more to gain than what Gordon did. Sure, they both got the lead out of the deal, but when Jeff did what he did, that sent the race into a GWC, which wasn't good for Jeff since he was really close on fuel. He also had an opportunity to wreck Kenseth prior to the actual incident, but didn't then. Logano on the other hand, he was good on fuel, and he could knock a rival out of the championship hunt.
@MaryandMocha7 жыл бұрын
not to mention that Jeff even said he was sorry and didn't mean to get into him. What you fail to mention is Logano not only didn't say he wished he didn't get into him, but he said he deserved to get wrecked. On top of that he was laughing about it and never talked to matt. The next week at Talladega he brake checked Matt coming on to pit road right at the last second. Well guess what. That's going to get you wrecked. You can look back at NASCAR history and you always see guys getting paid back. Dale Earnhardt called it "driver code" and he was one of the best about talking to the other drivers after a race. Even if he ran through them. That kept Earnhardt from getting wrecked a lot over the years.
@DavidStewart-np3cj5 жыл бұрын
As a Logano/former gordon fan, even I say, its not the same. The 2006 race was equitable: 2 drivers in the regular season both had the same to lose if they both wrecked. The 2015 race not: logano was locked in for the next round and Kenseth was not. It didnt matter to Logano if they both wrecked...And Keselowski added fuel to the fire by wrecking Kenseth at martinsville. If that doesn't happen Kansas is no-story event.
@MaryandMocha7 жыл бұрын
These guys were racing for 17 years with each other at 36 races a year and they only had about 7 issues during all that time? That's called respect from two professionals. There are guys who have 7 incidents in a single season with each other. No need to name names.

Jeff definately has a dark side but I feel every single rivalry Jeff has had he never started it but he always finishes it which I feel is perfectly fine. You have to remember Jeff has been in the sport for a while he raced with Earnhardt Sr., DW, Rusty, and Spencer and that's how they drove Jeff is just old school same with Stewart Just old school drivers and some newer fans don't understand that and think they race dirty.

And what makes you think Kenseth won't have two titles and 40 wins by the end of his career? He's one win short of 30 and has a very good chance of winning the title this year. If Kenseth had the cars and R+D that Gordon had in his prime, he could easily win just as many races/titles.

I wasn't talking about Gordon because I could careless. Never said he wasn't a quality driver, just stating that you are extremely biased and hate Kenseth for his past run ins with Gordon. You reflect your drivers short temper. Just look at tonights race, Jeff cuts off Edwards and if Edwards didnt let up, would have wrecked him both. When Edwards did the same to Gordon, he lost it and blew up on the radio. Gordon's prime is far gone, Kenseth has 5 wins this year and can easily win 2-3 more!!

You clearly know nothing about racing. Kenseth has won on just about every major track in NASCAR aside from the road courses, indy and atlanta. You are a homer for Hendrick and your bias shows. I think Kenseth and Gordon had an awesome rivalry and as a Kenseth fan it was difficult to watch these two tangle and ruin good finishes for each other. But thats racing.
