The NASCAR Cup Series race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Sunday was a dramatic event with rain delay, multiple wrecks and radio drama. Cup champions Kyle Larson and Ryan Blaney had the biggest radio dram of the day, with one venting at rivals while the other one had some bold words to say to his spotter.

During the race following a clash with Denny Hamlin on the track, Kyle Larson’s spotter Tyler Monn criticized his driver for letting the JGR veteran to make the contact. The No:5 HMS driver wasn’t happy with the comment and told Monn to “shut the f**k up”. Now Hamlin who caused the drama has addressed the incident in his podcast.

He pointed out that he agrees with Kyle Larson and his spotter should have kept his mouth shut. Hamlin asserted that the spotter is often very biased towards their drivers and that might have been the reason for the criticism. He did admit the spotters has to be biased towards their drivers in some situation.

I agree with Kyle Larson. Tyler should shut the f*** up. Does he say that when Kyle squeezes guys up high? Probably not. You know, that’s the thing about spotters is that they are so biased to their guy, and that’s what they need to be at times. We’re racing for a win, there’s drops on our windshield.
