What’s your perspective on:

Is Hudson Logano's right-turn style a sign of a new racing strategy or just childhood fun?

Have an interesting take?

While this is indeed something to be proud of, Logano was seen expressing his worry about how he does not want people to set a standard for the little one. He said, “We raced out in Millbridge a couple of times and they introduced him as ‘Joey Logano’s kid, Hudson’… I didn’t have to go through that… I’m six years old, I’m having fun, that’s all it’s about. I don’t want it to be so serious already”. Logano’s sentiments reflect the delicate balance between nurturing a passion and preserving the innocence of childhood. However, fans certainly want to see Hudson race at the highest level and had some beginner advice for the 6-year-old.
