Noah Gragson has had a history of losing his calm and not controlling himself during moments of high emotional intensity. Whether it be when his hands are on the steering wheel as we saw at Road America recently, or it is in front of a mic during a post-race interview in 2020, Gragson goes with the flow.

Now, we know what happened at Road America since it’s so fresh.

But how many of you remember Gragson dropping an F-Bomb on live television a couple of years ago?

During the final corner of the Xfinity Series race in Texas in 2020, Harrison Burton passed the JR Motorsports driver to win the race. Naturally, Gragson was distraught and left frustrated, something evident in his post-race interview.

“I don’t know… I felt like we had a fast car there… just a little tight on exit all day… and… just…. frustrated at myself, I don’t know, I was pretty tight there at the end,” Gragson said.

“I knew he was coming. I didn’t expect him to get there… f**k… I don’t know, I’m sorry, I don’t know… frustrated.”

Noah Gragson was penalized for his actions, but a fellow driver feels it wasn’t enough

After his recent Road America incident, NASCAR handed Noah Gragson a fine of $35,000 and stripped him of some points. But this, according to one ‘victim’ of Noah Gragson’s actions in the race, wasn’t enough.

Brandon Brown claimed that at first, NASCAR didn’t want to do anything.

It was only after the whole thing “got pretty big on social media”, that they decided they needed to take some action.

But even that, in Brown’s view, wasn’t harsh enough.

“Everybody’s pretty much sugarcoated what he’s done. He’s getting a little bit of a slap on the wrist for it,” Brown claimed.

He added that if they accept the kind of driving that was on display at Road America from Gragson, and if they’re upset about it, then they needed to do something more.
