Who would like to be in the middle of the track but with a car that does not allow you to push to your best? Well, something similar happened at the Homestead Miami Speedway on Sunday, which had Ty Gibbs blown out completely. Gibbs was heard driving the f-bombs on radio calls with his team, and his voice did seem like he had had enough of it.

The 22-year-old had a very hard time on the Homestead Miami Speedway, and it seemed as though luck just did not want to favor him. As humane as it is, this is when Gibbs lost out on his temper over the radio call itself. While some might think that this is not done and it is highly distasteful, others wonder that it is only humane to express discontent when you are in such a high-pressure zone.

Contact with Haley made it difficult for Ty Gibbs

While Gibbs’ discomfort with his car was quite pertinent throughout when he was unable to maneuver to the lead, things started going worse as he approached the last few laps in Stage 3 Lap 187. Wondering what happened? While teammate Denny Hamlin was competing for the lead, Gibbs seemed to be entangled with a car problem that manifested itself in the most ugly form.

Towards Stage 3, Gibbs started to face major issues with the manual transmission of his car. It seemed as though he was unable to manage the transmission of the car, and no matter what he did, the car was just not ready to listen to him. While he was trying to bring it under control, he ended up making direct contact with Justin Haley. This was a detrimental move that not only impacted Haley, it brought forth caution for Gibbs as well. The driver was already in the backlog, and the caution at Lap 187 further ended up slowing him down. Frustrating right?

One could hear him lashing out at the team uttering the “f,” word as his radio went live with him saying, “What the f*** are we doing here”?

On the other hand, Justin Haley, who had started from the 10th position, got spun out for the second time on the track that day. The first one was contact with Ricky Stenhouse Jr., and that too in the very first lap itself. Ty Gibbs finished in the 36th position, and this contact made Gibbs furious, who lashed out on the radio at his team.

This isn’t Gibbs’ first clash—it happened back in August at Richmond too, in a tense showdown with teammate John Hunter Nemechek. During that race, Nemechek, making a guest appearance in the Joe Gibbs Racing No. 18, snatched the lead from Gibbs with only four laps left. Gibbs wasn’t about to let it slide, though.

He gave Nemechek several nudges in Turn 2 and went side-by-side with him on the final lap. Down the backstretch, Gibbs pushed Nemechek up two lanes, sealing his pass for the win but leaving Nemechek visibly frustrated. And, according to him, no matter what he tried, the car seemed to be going haywire, taking off Gibbs’ prowess on the tracks. Post that race, Ty Gibbs even said, “I was going to have to hit him in some way. He could turn the center better and I just couldn’t rotate, so I was definitely going to hit him. If I could go back, I would not have drove in as hard and hit him to knock him way up the track … I didn’t drag brake him, like we’ve seen before, to get behind and dump him. We raced to the finish, I hit him, and that was my goal. I could change it if I could, not hit him as hard, but that’s part of learning and I learned that.”

Additionally, during the race, as Ty Gibbs proceeded with his car on the track, his frustration started to grow profound, and he dropped quite a few “f” words while he explained the issues with his car to his crew chief.

This had also garnered major negative criticism from fans who hailed that he was being rude to Chris Gabehart, who is much more experienced than Gibbs and older as well. Fans had lashed out at Gibbs, and this went on for a good couple of weeks where fans even compared him to Kurt Busch, both known for their way of speaking and language.

Given that this instance has been repeated yet once again at the Homestead Miami Speedway, do you think it will be able to stir similar reactions from fans?
