The NASCAR Cup Series race at Martinsville on Sunday was an entertaining event, with Joe Gibbs Racing veteran Denny Hamlin producing some of his old magic to secure the victory. Fellow veteran and the reigning Cup champion Joey Logano though didn’t have the day he hoped for as he was involved in multiple incidents.

One of the most egregious one for the three times champion was the wreck involving Trackhouse Racing’s Ross Chastain. He came into the race determined to secure his maiden top 10 finish of the season, and in the final stage of the race, the No:1 Trackhouse Chevy was ahead of him, blocking his charge towards the front.

When it comes to defending positions on the short track, Chastain is one of the masters in frustrating his rivals and Joey Logano was the latest victim of this. He defended the No:22 Ford and the No:19 Toyota of Chase Briscoe with his elbows out, resulting in the inside line stacking up, the two cars making contact with each other and the champion splining out.

This left Logano furious and he didn’t hesitate to call the Chevy driver out. He branded him a jacka** in a radio rant following the incident.

That guy’s a jackass… He just asks for it doing that stuff, y’know? Like, jeez.

Joey Logano said on team radio.

Joey Logano doubled down on his comments post-race

In his post-race interview, after Joey Logano had some time to cool down, the veteran was asked about his radio rant. The Ford racer doubled down on the claims, and said Chastain often races like a jacka**. He is getting more disappointed every other week about getting caught in the messes.

He keeps racing like a jackass every weekend. I keep paying the price and I’m sick paying the price.

Joey Logano told TSJSports.

Further talking in the interview, Joey Logano was asked if he had anything to say directly to Ross Chastain. He pointed out that he has nothing good to say at the moment, as it is the second time in the three weeks they had run-ins on the track.

Not at the moment. Nothing good. … That’s twice in the last three weeks, so, that’s the deal, but anyways. Yeah.

Joey Logano said.

Joey Logano assess his P8 finish at Martinsville

In the same interview, Joey Logano shared his feelings about how he was able to secure a top-10 finish finally this season overcoming the unlucky moments. He admitted that with better execution he could have secured a better finish, but is determined to recover in the coming races.

You know, just because I felt like, if we – you never know, right, but if we were able to have a couple of good restarts, our pit stops were really good today. We were doing a good job on pit road and maybe we could have got up there and mixed it up with them, but we just have to recover, again. Another race we have to recover.

Joey Logano said.

The comments from Joey Logano shows he is really frustrated with how the 2025 season so far has been playing out for him. It would be interesting to see how long it will take the veteran to bounce back and get back to winning races.
