Noah Gragson Responds to Chase Briscoe’s Reaction to their Incident at Talladega

At the Talladega Superspeedway, there was a close call between Chase Briscoe and Noah Gragson. Gragson tried to bump draft his car, but it ended up going wrong and caused Briscoe to have a massive moment.

In the end, Briscoe dropped down the order to 19th, while Gragson finished 3rd. The move triggered plenty of debate among the fans, but he didn’t hold it against Noah Gragson.

Briscoe insisted that Gragson simply tried to pass him and he tried to block him in return. According to him, he did not blame his rival for the move, because he had to maintain his own position against Gragson.

What did Noah Gragson say about the incident?

Gragson tweeted, “Hard racing for the win! No shame by Chase Briscoe. We’re both trying to win! Hell of a race. On to the next one! Respect!”

Fortunately, in spite of the poor result in Talladega, neither driver is particularly worried. This is because both of them have already settled comfortably into their playoff spots. It is worth noting that the two of them approached NASCAR Hall of Famer, Dale Earnhardt, for advice to tackle Talladega.

In the end, Justin Haley triumphed at the Talladega Superspeedway and sealed his playoff berth. Admittedly, he won it under caution, because there was a wreck late in the race. Regardless of how he won, a win is a win and he will gladly take it and not look a gift horse in the mouth.

Briscoe and Gragson locked out the front row for the race but were unable to convert it. The former also did his utmost to fly the flag for Ford, as his fellow Ford racer, Austin Cindric, crashed out late in the race; joining him on the sidelines were Michael Annett, Colby Howard, Riley Herbst, Austin Hill, Jeffrey Earnhardt, and Joe Graf Jr.

Other retirees were Ryan Vargas, Brett Moffitt, Myatt Snider, Jesse Little, AJ Allmendinger, and Justin Allgaier
