Denny Hamlin expressed frustration during a NASCAR race at Martinsville Speedway. He accused Joey Logano of playing games and called him a piece of (expletive) human. Hamlin also mentioned that Logano was dragging his brakes. Hamlin's crew chief, Chris Gabehart, confirmed the data showed Logano was dragging his brake. Hamlin mentioned that he lost grip off Turn 4 and needed more turn in the short run. The incident caused a crash involving Gibbs, Keselowski, McDowell, and Suárez.
Hamlin: “(Expletive) 12 brakes down the backstretch trying to keep me on the outside.” Gabehart confirms data shows Blaney was dragging brake. Hamlin: “He’s the one who’s got the 24 by the balls. He wants to play games, I’ll play games. I’m the one who’s got nothing to lose.”

"Feel like I lost grip there off 4, I don't know how much of that ..." Denny Hamlin "It wouldn't surprise me if I hurt you in the short run, but you blitzed him in the long run. Is that fair?" Chris Gabehart "Maybe, but I got to turn in the short run." "I know"
Hamlin: “Definitely feel like I lost grip there off of (Turn) 4. Don’t know how much of that was my turn, though.” Gabehart says he wouldn’t be surprised if he hurt turn in the short run but helped long run. Hamlin: “Eh, maybe, but I need turn in the short run.” #NASCAR
