Getting attention and earning respect aren't always the same thing. 👀 This week's Actions Detrimental is out now! 🎙️ Spotify: Apple: YouTube:

hamlin is such a jealous little bitch, yapping on podcasts instead of winning championships

At least Carson had a shot to win without help. If that caution comes out, he probably wins. He already won Talladega and nearly won the Daytona 500. If others don't help him, that's fine. Spire has a Hendrick alliance. Denny finished outside the top 10. On to North Wilkesboro

Watching NASCAR medias reaction to Hocevar makes me realize why this sport is slowly dying. This sport is so completely out of touch with what fans want in a sport. NASCAR is cooked.

Alright @dennyhamlin, imma shoot straight with ya here my man. I was a fan of yours for 10 years. 10 years, so I think that time investment gives me a say here. Imma be real. I would feel safe betting that Carson Hocevar wins a championship before you do. As raw and unpolished as he is and with the elite season you have had thus far, I feel safe saying that. Your biggest problem has always been that your car just doesn't run as fast as your mouth when it really counts. If it did? Whatever you pointed the finger at that got in the way each time could be multiplied twenty-fold on the biggest stage and you'd still run away with it. You'd be unstoppable. I don't have a problem with you talking. Not at all. In a sport full of corporate robots that have the personality of a wet paper sack, I welcome that. The thing for me is you aim higher than where you actually stand a little too frequently for my taste. I'm not talking Hocevar on that either. After years of that, it just loses its meaning and my ability to take it seriously. As a former Hamlin fan, my longstanding joke has always been if you want to win a NASCAR Cup Series Title, get Denny Hamlin to talk some smack on you. It's as close to a locked-in guarantee as it gets. Ask Keselowski, Logano, KB (if he was still here). You just cannot help it. For me at this point, Denny could win 35 straight races and you still couldn't convince me he'd win the 36th one. Since the dude wants to continue this goofiness 20 years later and miss the entire point of what draws fans to Carson Hocevar...well? Naturally, I think he should get some love right back. What Denny & co. fail to understand is this. It's not just Hocevar himself pulling this off. It is THEM, their need to feed it and stoke the flame. Not to mention, Hocevar's antics and choices have brought more life out of a lifeless garage than I have ever seen. You get these drones that all of a sudden show their first signs of life the moment Hocevar does something to tick them off. Wanna know the natural fan response? Bring 20 more Carson Hocevar's to the sport. We're fed up. You got a lot to say about the fans? The sport wouldn't be able to rake in the TV deals, its appeal or growth, or sponsorship without them. It'd be done. This is what Carson Hocevar understands that you people don't. Good grief, it is Atlanta. Not every race track works the way Atlanta does on determining the winner. Hamlin of all folks should know that. This isn't the type of race that shows up as the 36th on the schedule.

FYI - Dale Earnhardt won his first Cup race at 27. And I don’t think his behavior should be somehow excused because he gas lit people into believing that he was their friend. Meanwhile Carson is saying, cmon field - race me harder. And not out fakely putting his arm around people.

Hamlin has no room to speak on this. In fact, he seems rather jealous

This, coming from Hamlin. 😂 Now I’m definitely gettin me a #77 Hocevar hat. ASAP. The sport desperately needs some good ole American racing attitude. Denny, sure as shit, ain’t gonna do that. And, watching Jeff baby boomer Burton cry about CH on tv last Sunday night, was even better.

Carson was the only Chevy I saw in the entire field that was pulling their weight. He had no manufactured help along side of him all race

Hamlin pontificating about Hocevar is a joke - he’s just scared…

And Carson was nearly able to win without help. Drivers need to respect the fact he’s an amazing young talent and he’s going to continue to do things his way and that’s why we love him. This sport has needed a CH for years now! He’ll continue to bring the speed!

Why would he expect Toyotas or Fords help push him? He’s not a teammate and doesn’t drive for the same manufacturer

Its amazing how Hamlin thinks his opinion is the gospel . There's a certain number of drivers who thinks Hocavar has to bow down to them or they'll ostracize him . Hell with them .

A driver that works for you pushed him into the lead prior to that last caution. I guess he was not one of the people that said they would not push him in the meeting.

NASCAR drivers in 2026 are a far cry from the guys who built the sport. Soft, boring, corporate robots. Sport would he better if everyone hated eachother and were worried about their own interests rather than "helping" eachother

Your driver of the #23 was the one spinning out all over the track and couldn’t stay above the yellow line lmao. Will you comment on that?

@dennyhamlin where TF were you all race long? You won't even a factor! Carson was a factor all night long! Even lead the race, got a flat & came from 32 back to the lead! Y'all just hate the dude for breathing lmfao its sad & pathetic! Fuck all yall JGR bastards! Karma's a bitch

Guess DH is not paying attention to driver intros when CH is introduced. Plus, the fans absolutely went crazy when he pulled up for autographs at the souvenirs trailer. Easily the biggest group for autographs. His attention is going to draw sponsors.

Lmao @CarsonHocevar is 8th in points in a 20th place car. You have 3 drivers who have top 5 cars every week one is 13th and the other is 53rd in points. Worry about yourself, kid

30th to 3rd in like 30 laps.

Oh good Lord at this mindset already. McMurry started to sound like McBitch and Burton always a whiner just because he was always vanilla. 77 doesn’t care. And doesn’t care what anyone thinks. Some validation in it but dude is still a badass. Get over it. Dude still young.

Hocevar don’t want help and doesn’t need it RIDE THE DENTE

Has Husqvarna really shown disrespect off the track? Genuine question.

@dennyhamlin coming to the comments to obliterate the haters. #11 = 🐐

I would love to see Hocevar win the championship before Denny.

Just like Denny getting attention for cheating on his girl all the time doesn’t earn him respect!

Drivers making their own enemies. Hocevar is by far one of the best pushers and he has that aggression you want pushing you. Make enemies with him and you ruin your own chances of you winning dramatically.

Getting attention like Zane smith this whole entire week?!?!?! Seems like the old fucks don’t like new guys who get a following.. what did Zane Smith do this weekend??

I MF TOLD YALL MFS THIS! THAT THE 20 DIDN'T PUSH 77 ON PURPOSE! & I GOT ATTACKED FOR IT! THAT ALL OF JGR HATES CARSON FOR BREATHING! THAT THEY CAN'T STAND HIM & JUST JEALOUS HATING ASS LITTLE CRYBABIES! THIS IS A RIDICULOUS EXCUSE! HES SUPPOSED TO KISS YALLS ASS? NA F THAT!

@dennyhamlin been the most hated driver for years now cuz he's the biggest hypocritical contradicting POS!Hates being raced how he races, remember how he did Larson at Pocono few years ago, &how he did bubba last year at Kansas,MF POS got no room to say a GD thing! Retire already

lol someone pushed him to a win at talledega.. of course Toyotas aren’t got push him but a Chevy driver would

@dennyhamlin you're talking about 90s Dale Earnhardt, when Earnhardt first got to cup, from 79 through the 80s every driver absolutely hated him, talked pure shit about him, the media did to, ppl said he would ruin the sport etc this is no different, all y'all hating on him

I'm sure it's not only the #77 toyotas won't push because of the Gabehart situation.

These are some real Actions Detrimental for Denny. Complete lack of respect for Jordan but certainly getting his attention

When it comes down to having a chance to win, drivers will go with the fastest car(s).

I rooted for #3, then#8. Now #77, because screw these Pu**y drivers that just fall in line like Ross Chastain. Go Hocevar!
