Stenhouse could not exit the track until the race was over, as the North Wilkesboro track had no way out of the infield. Stenhouse Jr. parked his car in Busch\u2019s pit stall and told an interviewer he would be waiting for Busch, Yahoo Sports <a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/nascar-ricky-stenhouse-jr-throws-punch-at-kyle-busch-after-all-star-race-020311803.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a>, adding that he mentioned the 2011 incident when car owner Richard Childress, 65,  <a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/blogs\/nascar-from-the-marbles\/richard-childress-faces-discipline-punching-kyle-busch-150715971.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">punched<\/a> Busch, then 26. Busch had door-slammed Joey Coulter, who raced for Childress in the O\u2019Reilly Auto Parts 250.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cYou hit the fence yourself. I didn\u2019t touch you,\u201d Stenhouse Jr. told Busch. \u201cGo back and watch \u2026 I did not touch you. Not once. \u2026 You hit the fence and then you hit me. .. Go back and watch it.\u201d Then, he took a swing at Busch.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Kyle Busch and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.   fight after the All-Star Race. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/IJMttBw90W\">pic.twitter.com\/IJMttBw90W<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Jordan Bianchi (@Jordan_Bianchi) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Jordan_Bianchi\/status\/1792375477857915211?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 20, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Another angle of the confrontation after the race. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JCgSZhEzwa\">pic.twitter.com\/JCgSZhEzwa<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 NASCAR (@NASCAR) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NASCAR\/status\/1792379746770473445?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 20, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cHe left the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/meghan-markle-accuses-royal-family-of-perpetuating-lies-mocks-them-as-the-firm\/\" title=\"Meghan Markle Accuses Royal Family Of Perpetuating Lies, Mocks Them As \u2018The Firm\u2019\">door wide open<\/a>, I went through the middle, almost had him clear, the 34 [of Michael McDowell] kind of ran up the track and we all kind of touched there \u2014 nothing major,\u201d Stenhouse told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxsports.com\/stories\/nascar\/ricky-stenhouse-jr-kyle-busch-fight-after-all-star-race\">Fox Sports<\/a>. \u201cThen Kyle tried to wreck me in [Turns] 3 and 4 and then finally did wreck me in [Turns] 1 and 2. \u2026 He just did a poor job on the start and then was mad about it \u2014 I think that\u2019s the way his season has gone.
