The pushing and shoving began in Turn 1 on the first lap of the double overtime attempt in the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Circuit of The Americas. Austin Hill was the instigator, pushing Shane van Gisbergen toward the first turn and eventually pushing him out of the way to the race lead. A lap later, van Gisbergen did some pushing of his own on Hill’s back bumper and even caved in the nose of his Kaulig Racing Chevrolet.

Neither driver went to victory lane. Kyle Larson took advantage of their disagreement and drove past both of them, while van Gisbergen got the best of Hill off the final turn to cross the finish line second (before being penalized 30 seconds for cutting the course). Hill still seemed upset after the checkered flag, but eventually cooler heads – even if their views differed – prevailed by the time the field parked on pit road.
