Shocking Outburst Triggers Apology From Michael Jordan’s Superstar as Darlington Exposes Chris Buescher’s Unknown Side
Chris Buescher from RFK Racing just can’t seem to catch a break. After mere millimeters snatched away the win from him at Kansas last week, he found himself on the receiving end of a wreck today at Darlington Speedway. With just 10 laps to go in the race, Tyler Reddick’s aggressive move led him to make contact with the No. 17 car and ram him into the wall.
Reddick, earlier in the race, was tussling with race winner Brad Keselowski for the win. And this is when Buescher made an impressive pass to take the lead. Trying to imitate the same move, Reddick completely lost control of his race car, and the wreck took both drivers out of commission. Finding himself on the bitter end of the stick two weeks in a row, Buescher could not maintain his calm and confronted Reddick on the road. He is one of the very few guys in the NASCAR garage to steer clear of any drama or unnecessary confrontation, but today’s event really triggered him.
However, despite Buescher’s initial attempts to throw arms at his rival, Reddick’s public apology cooled down the tempers. The 23XI Racing star admitted, “I f**ked up, I’m sorry. The last thing I wanted to do was wreck your car. I could care less about mine.”
Buescher pointed out that his racecar doesn’t have the winner’s sticker and signed off by saying, “You need to be better. We’ve raced each other just fine for so long.”
