Kyle Larson responded to Ryan Blaney's criticism after winning the Brickyard 400 in a controversial finish marred by a chaotic restart and a fuel issue.
Kyle Larson took victory at the Brickyard 400 in Indianapolis, clinching a contentious win that sparked a fiery debate among top contenders that slowly made its way to social media. The race, marked by an incident during the restart in the final stage, concluded with Larson at the front of the pack, later responding to critical comments from fellow racer Ryan Blaney.
In response to Blaney's accusations, NASCAR's Executive Vice President of Competition, Elton Sawyer, defended the actions taken by his officials.'So we had already gone through the choose process, so we were coming to green when the 6 pulled off, which allowed the 5 to pull up, which transferred the control vehicle to the 12. And this all happens fairly quick there. So hindsight, I think we still let it play out the way it did. We'll discuss that more.
