In the recent NASCAR race at Phoenix Raceway, tensions flared as Joey Logano found himself in a wreck, courtesy of rookie driver John Hunter Nemechek. The 1-mile track, hosting the debut of a new aero package, presented challenges for passing, intensifying on-track battles.
The pivotal moment occurred on lap 205 when Logano and Nemechek, vying for 25th place, engaged in a high-stakes tussle.

Logano’s day at Phoenix Raceway took a turn for the worse, with his car towed off the track, marking the end of a challenging race.
Over the team radio, Nemechek quickly admitted fault, saying, “My bad, man. I didn’t mean to get into the 22. He slowed up way early.” The team acknowledged the acknowledgement with a “10-4, I got you on that.”
Nemechek explained, “Just racing for lucky dogs. You get back there, and everyone’s not racing real good. We got caught up in one.” According to him, Logano slowed down excessively.
However, Logano vehemently disagreed, stating, “I didn’t slow a bit. Well, you gotta lift to make the corners. You can’t hold it wide open around Phoenix.”
