NASCAR Community Mercilessly Trash Hailie Deegan After She Fell Victim to Retaliation

Belonging to a family of motorheads, Hailie Deegan quickly made a name for herself in the world of four-wheeled motorsports. Stepping into the ARCA Menards series, the Temecula native is also the first female driver to have won multiple races in the K&N Pro Series West. Transitioning to the Craftsman Truck Series in 2021 full-time, Hailie Deegan has proved herself to be a fierce competitor on the track. 

Cheerful and full of smiles off the track, when Deegan slips on the helmet, her on-track aggression speaks volumes. Not shy to put the bumper on fellow drivers, Hailie Deegan recently became the laughingstock of the NASCAR community after falling prey to retaliation.

Hailie Deegan gets handed a taste of her own medicine

In the competitive world of NASCAR, making a name for oneself is not an easy task. Either you are known for your racing finesse or for the timelessly infamous on-track controversies. While Hailie Deegan is undoubtedly a phenom behind the wheel, she has time and again stepped into the limelight for all the wrong reasons.

Known for her aggressive maneuvers that often see fellow drivers getting spun out, Deegan has been called out by multiple factions of the racing community for her foul moves. But this time around the NASCAR community seemed to rejoice as Hailie Deegan was handed NASCAR’s famous currency, payback.

Stepping into Indianapolis Raceway Park for Friday’s TSport 200 Truck Series race, Deegan aggression was on full display. Early on in the race, Hailie Deegan’s #13 Ford made contact with Landen Lewis’ #04 Chevy, causing Lewis to spin out and make contact with the outside wall. Unhappy with Deegan’s actions, Landen Lewis then bumped the #13 Ford with 59 laps remaining of the slated 200 laps. The contact sent Deegan sliding sideways across the racetrack in Turn 1, hitting the outer retaining barrier backward.

The impact dealt race-ending damage to Deegan’s #13 Ford, earning her the fourth DNF of the 2023 season.

With Deegan always escaping the consequences of her actions, the NASCAR community was enthralled by Landen Lewis’ payback. Ruthless wouldn’t even come close to describing the comments posted on YouTube by the fans. Taking a dig at Deegan’s ‘Honey Buns’ comments, one fan wrote, “It looks like the honey buns have officially ran of luck. Honestly I don’t think the truck series is for her. I think she should stick to dirt racing.”

Calling out Hailie Deegan for earning yet another DNF, another fan commented, “Another DNF for “Failie” Deegan. No surprise.”

Unleashing another sarcastic gibe at the #13 driver, a fan commented, “Deegan is totally ready for Xfinity. Maybe Cup! [laughing emoji]” to which another member added, “I am thinking already the first unanimous HOF inductee.”

“I seen the caution flag and thought to myself it’s probably deegan and 2 seconds later I seen her in the wall lol” 

“When is the Hailie Deegan experiment going to be over?! She’s destroying good equipment”

“Solid 31st place finish, that’s about her average finish.”
