The 2025 NASCAR All-Star Race at North Wilkesboro was full of action. The best drivers in the field went wheel-to-wheel to win the million dollar prize. It was JGR’s Christopher Bell who emerged victorious this time around. After the 30-year-old defeated defending champion Joey Logano in the final stages of the race. After the finish, Bell responded to claims of Logano being infuriated with the result.
Joey Logano was having a dominant drive on Sunday at the North Wilkesboro Speedway. However, a late caution by race promoter Marcus Smith turned things around, taking away the 34-year-old’s advantage against the rest of the field. Christopher Bell was the biggest gainer in this affair with a lucky strategy. The JGR star went on to overtake Logano with just nine laps to go.
The Team Penske driver did not mince his words after the race. Joey Logano made it clear that he was not going to forget this tussle with Christopher Bell. The 34-year-old was undoubtedly frustrated after losing a million dollars with less than 10 laps to go.
Bell had no idea about Logano’s comments before he met the media. The JGR star was informed that the No. 22 driver was quite frustrated with the race. Christopher Bell expressed his shock over his rival’s remarks, claiming that he could’ve never expected to hear this from Joey Logano.
Joey was frustrated? He was frustrated? That is interesting. I genuinely would not have guessed that.
Christopher Bell told post-race.
Christopher Bell seized the ‘moment’ against Joey Logano
The All-Star Race is never easy in NASCAR. Drivers are willing to push themselves to the limit in a bid to head to Victory Lane. Joey Logano, who has already won this race in the past, was not looking to give up against Bell. The two clashed a few times during the race but ultimately it was the JGR driver who had the last laugh.
Christopher Bell recalled how difficult he found to battle the Team Penske driver over the course of the race. However, in the final stage of the race, the JGR driver took the opportunity and made his move. Bell made it clear that his move was not anything worse than what Logano has done in NASCAR in the past. The latest All-Star Race winner signaled that Joey Logano should not be upset over aggressive moves considering his old moves on-track.
I had got to him a couple times before, and he made it very difficult on me, as he should. And I got my run and I took the moment, as I should. I don’t think that I did anything that Joey has not done, and I’ve seen Joey do much worse. So we will continue on.
Christopher Bell added.
Certainly, Christopher Bell is willing to be engulfed in a war of words against Joey Logano if the need be. The 30-year-old believes that he won the race fair and square. This race might remain the talk of the town for the coming weeks as it appears that both drivers will be standing firmly on their respective opinions.
