Ty Gibbs has made many enemies in the Cup Series with just one race. Of course, Ty Dillon is the most obvious example, after hitting him in the pit road. But the other is Erik Jones, who was the first to tweet at him when he apologized for what he did in pit road. But Jones’ tweet had nothing to do with what he was fined for. So what is the Petty GMS driver warning him for?

Turns out, the #23 car hit the Petty GMS driver under yellow in the rear bumper. And not just once, but twice!

Well, Jones replied to Joe Gibbs’ grandson, warning him to never bump him under yellow again.

Yikes, that is pretty bad. Clearly, it makes sense why the driver of the #43 car is pissed off and explains his stern warning. Funny enough, Corey Lajoie joined other fans as they took shots at Gibbs’ grandson one by one.

The #23 car turned right into Dillon’s car and hit him intentionally, pushing him into the pit box and almost hurting one of his crew members.

Of course, NASCAR didn’t let it slide, as they deducted 25 points from the #23 team, and gave him a hefty $75,000 fine.
