Ricky Stenhouse Jr. isn’t backing down after his rough night at Nashville Superspeedway on June 1, 2025. The No. 47 JTG Daugherty Chevrolet driver found himself slammed into the wall following an aggressive move by Carson Hocevar, who pilots the No. 77 for Spire Motorsports. That hit abruptly ended Stenhouse’s promising top-10 run, igniting tension between the two drivers.
Speaking to NBC Sports after the race, Stenhouse didn’t mince words when asked if he planned to retaliate. “Oh, I will,” he said flatly, warning of a potential “riot” on track if Hocevar pulls the same stunt again. The remarks have set social media ablaze, dividing fans. Some admire Stenhouse’s fiery determination, recalling his intense 2024 All-Star Race brawl with Kyle Busch, while others worry he’s stirring unnecessary drama.
Currently, Stenhouse is struggling to find his stride in 2025, sitting 22nd in points without a win. Meanwhile, Hocevar’s aggressive driving style has already yielded two top-5 finishes this season, making him a rising threat. With the next showdown at Michigan Speedway looming, NASCAR officials are keeping a close watch, hoping to prevent the rivalry from boiling over into further on-track chaos. The stage is set for a fiery battle between these two competitors.
