After wrecking his teammate BrandonJonesRac for the NASCAR_Xfinity win at MartinsvilleSwy, eliminating him from title contention, TyGibbs was heavily criticized. Now his boss — and grandfather has weighed in on the incident: NASCARPlayoffs
On the final lap of the third overtime in Saturday’s race at Martinsville Speedway, Ty Gibbs knocked then-leaderNASCAR almost immediately displayed a caution for the wreck but since Jones had taken the white flag, the field was frozen with Gibbs as the leader and he claimed the win, his sixth of the season.
Gibbs was heavily booed by fans on the track and his actions – including a prolonged celebratory burnout – ignited a hefty backlash on social media. NASCAR did not penalize him for the move, deeming it “racing for the win.”Asked about how he and the organization are dealing with the aftermath on Tuesday, Joe Gibbs said, “There’s a lot to it. We’re trying to – as a family and as a race team family – we’re trying to work through every single part of that.
Joe Gibbs said ensuring everyone was aware of the circumstances at the end of the race was one thing that could have been handled differently. Jones is leaving JGR at the end of the season to move to JR Motorsports in 2023 – a decision that was announced on Sept. 14.
