Kyle Busch, a two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion, criticized Denny Hamlin, a NASCAR driver, for comments on the Actions Detrimental podcast and challenged Hamlin to swap cars in response.
Denny Hamlin, speaking on the Actions Detrimental podcast, praised Busch's talent but suggested Busch needed to outperform Richard Childress Racing driver Austin Dillon to support claims that equipment had held him back, and said Busch's decline began at Joe Gibbs Racing and was worsened by the current-generation car.
Speaking to media at Kansas Speedway, Busch said, "If Denny wants to switch cars I’ll switch cars with him," and added he has followed online chatter but questioned Hamlin's assessment.
Busch is 24th in the standings, seven points ahead of Austin Dillon, and is 40 years old and in a contract year with no obvious destination to resume championship contention.
