When it comes to racecar driving, there’s always this eternal debate of which form is the best or which form is the toughest. Now, the best question is a subjective one as it depends purely on the fans. As for which is the toughest, there could be some objectivity to it. But there’s another perspective from which this subject can be looked at, one on which NASCAR Cup and Xfinity driver Landon Cassill recently shared his take on.

Cassill posted a tweet in which he shared his views on the form of racecar driving which is the “most versatile.” Or rather, he shared his take and invited his followers to discuss and share their takes.

And they did.

Fans argue over “most versatile” form of racecar driving between NASCAR, F1, and INDYCAR

Cassill tweeted, “NASCAR drivers are the most versatile professional racing drivers in the world. More surfaces, racing styles, track types, than any series. F1 driver is a true specialist-focused on singular style of racing, while a modern Cup Series driver must be a jack of all trades.”

“Discuss.”

This led to a long discussion between fans as some took side with NASCAR, some sided with INDYCAR, and some sided with F1. In the mix of this, one fan also threw in the name of Kyle Larson and Chase Elliott.

After the incident between Kyle Larson and Ryan Preece in last week’s race at Talladega, a lot of questions and fingers were raised towards NASCAR for what could’ve gone wrong and how tragic it all could’ve been. But Larson isn’t one of them.

He appreciates the hard work they’ve put in making the Next Gen car safer while he maintained his “what if” stance on the subject.

“You see things that could have easily gotten me in the car, whether it be the bars that had completely broke off and could have shanked me,” Larson said as per AP News. “Or what if I had a second impact? I’m not knocking NASCAR at all on that. They’ve worked really hard with this car to make it safer.

“I’ve been very thankful they took both my car and Preece’s car afterward to dive in deeper into it and see how they can make it safer yet.”
