Kyle Busch and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. clash at the NASCAR All-Star Race, reflecting tensions on the track.
Kyle Busch and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. ignited a major confrontation at the NASCAR All-Star Race on Sunday night in North Carolina. The altercation began when Busch’s No. 8 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 bumped into Stenhouse’s No. 47 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 on Lap 2, causing Stenhouse to hit the wall and be eliminated from the race early on.
After the crash, Stenhouse parked in Busch’s pit box and climbed over the wall to confront Busch’s crew. With no exit tunnel at North Wilkesboro Speedway, Stenhouse had to wait until the race concluded to address Busch directly.
During the post-competition fireworks, the two drivers were caught on camera in a heated argument that quickly escalated.
In the garage, Stenhouse and Busch exchanged words before Stenhouse threw a punch at Busch’s face. The incident, captured on video and shared by NASCAR, showed Stenhouse visibly agitated as he confronted Busch.
Crew members from both teams quickly intervened, sparking a chaotic scuffle.
Despite the intensity of the altercation, no one reported any serious injuries. NASCAR announced that they would assess any penalties by Wednesday, following their usual procedures and timelines.
Busch finished 10th in the race, while Stenhouse ended up last.
Joey Logano dominated the race in his No. 22 Ford Mustang Dark Horse, leading all but one of the 200 laps and taking home the $1 million prize. Neither Busch nor Stenhouse, nor NASCAR, immediately responded to requests for further comment on the incident.
