NASCAR Xfinity Series driver and the grandson of Joe Gibbs Racing owner, Ty Gibbs has been in the news for all the wrong reasons lately. After his selfish actions at Martinsville and the part where he referred to himself as Jesus, Gibbs also seemed to have sat in a media appearance, where he apparently said the same phrase almost a hundred times.

A journalist reported, “according to the Toyota transcript, Ty Gibbs said “you know” 91 times during his media availability today.”
Must be pretty hard to justify one’s actions, especially when their apologies mean nothing. Gibbs has been notorious when it comes to his on-track actions, he thinks he’s playing the villain in some fantasy universe all by himself. Not knowing the implications it would have on his future, even if he moves into the Cup Series in a year or two.
NASCAR fans react to Ty Gibbs saying “you know” 91 times
After the journalist posted this over a Tweet, fans could not hold their laughter and mocked the young reckless driver to shreds.
Fans pointed out that perhaps, Gibbs should have been given some public speaking lessons than make him sit in a simulator all day. While another said, Gibbs was the all-new version of Tony Stewart’s “But…umn.”
I've noticed over the years that, "You know," and "Total team effort," are his two big go-to things.

That’s what happens when you focus on rqcing 24/7 instead of school. Maybe they should have done some public speaking lessons instead of sim-time at some point. What’s the sense in winning all the time if you can’t represent a sponsor well and keep the $ flowing (Kyle Busch).

Was it in his script to say that?

A lot better than comparing himself to Jesus, I guess.

WATCH THIS STORY: 5 Times Ty Gibbs Gave Ross Chastain A Run For His Money As He Made Enemies
Now as Kyle Busch makes his way to RCR next season, there is going to be one empty seat at JGR. There have been quite a few rumors that have suggested that perhaps, grandpa Gibbs might take this opportunity to field his grandson, Ty Gibbs into that seat. However, if that happens, it surely will be a hard time for the other folks who already are on the team. Hopefully, he does not end up making enough enemies to throw him out of contention in the future altogether.
