At Nashville, Carson Hocevar’s runner-up finish was overshadowed by a run-in with Ricky Stenhouse Jr., where contact from Hocevar sent Stenhouse spinning into the outside wall. The wreck was race-ending and Stenhouse has now fallen below the playoff cut-off line as a result.

Stenhouse indicated that payback was on the table immediately after the wreck, but things have since simmered down after discussions between the two drivers. In a Saturday press conference at Michigan, Hocevar said he doesn’t expect any further escalation.

“Yeah, I mean it was productive,” said Hocevar about talks with Stenhouse. “You know, me and him both have the reputation, I guess, of being aggressive at times and everything. So at that one point, we both reminded each other that even with those reputations, we’ve raced each other very well together, right? It clashes together. So, yeah, I mean we’ve had no issues before, as he had said, and I feel like we’ve had a decent relationship leading up to this.

“I thought it was productive and, based off his comments, I felt like it was received (as) productive.”

Talking it out

It’s fair to say that Hocevar has angered several drivers this year with his aggressive style, and this week, he admitted that he needs to “round the edges off” a little bit. Asked if it was hard to call a competitor after a situation like this, Hocevar really didn’t think so.

“I mean, no, it’s not, at least it wasn’t when me and him [Stenhouse] talked,” said Hocevar. “He owns a sprint car team, so he’s one of the first drivers I’ll go talk to just because I want to ask him about his sprint car team. So, you know, we’ve had that relationship, right? So, I mean, it’s not too hard to call. You just pick up the phone and call.

“I don’t get nervous a whole lot or awkward. Sometimes I am awkward, but I don’t get nervous or anything before those calls, especially when I feel like it’s warranted. You see these guys 38 weekends, so it’s either you call them or you see them here. It’s probably just easier if you just move that timeline up. That’s really the biggest thing.”

Where is the line between aggressive and reckless?

Hocevar has also gotten in trouble in the past for intentionally wrecking rivals, especially in the lower divisions — but also in the Cup Series after a run-in with Harrison Burton last year. The 22-year-old agrees that there is a line between aggressive and reckless, drawing it at “blatantly intentional versus just racing” incidents.

“Obviously, we make a thousand decisions a race, right? And sometimes the only decisions you see, especially when you’re not leading, in front or on TV, the only decisions you see is the bad ones because that causes a yellow and that raises a lot of tension,” said Hocevar. “So, I think every race car driver kind of realizes that at times. Intensity will just pick up, especially with how hard it is to pass or whatever. The intensity just starts picking up at certain tracks. I think everybody can see the line, especially depending on how the race goes. That kind of dictates how aggressive everybody’s being, and that’s sometimes when you start seeing mistakes or, you know, too much aggression.”

“It’s cool to just be talked about”

And while it’s not all positive, Hocevar certainly doesn’t mind being in the spotlight either. “Number one, it’s cool to just be talked about,” he said. “Obviously, you want to be talked about maybe in a different light. But I mean, at least they’re talking, right? And I think that’s big for me. And, you know, you consume it — you see it all. As Jeff Dickerson [Spire Motorsports team co-owner] had mentioned before, he’s like, we’re trying to like round the edges. And then you have your heroes texting you, just don’t change, right? He’s like, hold on, hold on — we need at least something a little different.

“But yes, I mean, ultimately, it’s fun to obviously be in the news. I mean, it’s what I’ve dreamt of my whole life, which is just at least being a topic of conversation. Yes, I mean, it’s cool from that aspect. But you know, obviously, you want to be it when you just dominate a Cup race, and they can’t stop talking about it. That’s probably ultimately the next goal. But, you know, it’s definitely fun to at least see it all or just see my face everywhere.”

23XI and FRM denied rehearing in major blow, could lose charters by next week

The lawsuit between 23XI Racing, Front Row Motorsports, and NASCAR is set for December 1st, but another legal battle between the parties has been raging in the meantime. Here’s how we all got to this point: Prior to the start of the 2025 season, the teams were granted a preliminary injunction to keep their charters […]

The lawsuit between 23XI Racing, Front Row Motorsports, and NASCAR is set for December 1st, but another legal battle between the parties has been raging in the meantime. Here’s how we all got to this point:

Prior to the start of the 2025 season, the teams were granted a preliminary injunction to keep their charters while the lawsuit was ongoing in order to avoid irreparable harm. However, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Virginia, recently overturned that decision.

On May 9th, Judge Paul Victor Niemeyer, Judge Steven Agee, and Judge Stephanie Thacker heard arguments from both NASCAR’s lead attorney, Chris Yates, as well as the team’s lead attorney, Jeffrey Kessler.

On June 5th, this trio of judges decided to revoke the injunction, claiming the teams cannot agree to parts of the 2025 Charter Agreement and benefit from it while suing NASCAR for the parts they disagree with. The courts told Kessler, “you can’t have your cake and eat it too” before making the decision.

Request denied

The teams pushed back, attempting to appeal the decision by requesting a rehearing with the entire Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. As of Wednesday, July 9th, that request has been denied.

It’s unclear what other options (if any) the teams have at this point, which means they are likely going to lose their charters within seven days. If that happens, then 23XI and FRM will each bring three cars to Dover Motor Speedway as open entries.

Along with having to qualify on time, the teams will suffer significant financial losses and certain contracts will be voided. No one knows what will become of the six charters they currently hold, including two that they purchased from Stewart-Haas Racing (with help from the courts) last year.

23XI fielded a fourth, part-time entry as an open car at Chicago last weekend with Corey Heim, and he ultimately missed the race. While DNQs are uncommon in modern NASCAR as entry lists rarely exceed the 40-car maximum, it’s still an uncomfortable position to be in.

23XI’s full-time entries include the No. 23 of Bubba Wallace, the No. 35 of Riley Herbst, and the No. 45 of Tyler Reddick. FRM fields the No. 4 of Noah Gragson, the No. 34 of Todd Gilliland, and the No. 38 of Zane Smith.

 Toyota’s New GR Rally Machine Roars Like Hell But Emits Almost Nothing

  • Toyota revealed the GR Yaris Rally2 H2 Concept during Rally Finland’s opening events.
  • The concept shares its chassis and wide bodykit with the gas-powered GR Yaris Rally2.
  • Liquid hydrogen fuel delivers near-zero emissions, while retaining traditional ICE sounds.

Exploring cleaner alternatives to traditional engines, Toyota continues to develop a range of powertrain solutions that include more than just hybrids, plug-in hybrids, battery-electric vehicles, and hydrogen fuel cells. One of its more unconventional efforts involves a modified combustion engine that runs on liquid hydrogen, which has now found its way into a full-fledged rally car.

The GR Yaris H2 Concept has been built to meet WRC’s Rally2 class regulations. It features the same wide bodykit and prominent aerodynamic components as the gas-powered Rally2 variant, along with a similar chassis setup.

While it looks more restrained than the top-tier Rally1 car in the WRC, the design still carries a strong motorsport presence. Visually, the hydrogen-powered concept is marked out by a unique livery and vented rear panels in place of traditional side windows.

Hydrogen Power, Rally Style

The development of the hydrogen-powered rally car took place at Toyota’s TGR-WRT headquarters in Jyväskylä, Finland, with testing conducted on both gravel and tarmac. The company hasn’t disclosed full technical details, though it’s likely powered by a modified version of the existing turbocharged 1.6-liter three-cylinder engine.

Using liquid hydrogen as fuel results in “near-zero emissions” from the tailpipe. At the same time, the engine retains “the sounds and sensations” of an ICE-powered vehicle, which are very popular among rally enthusiasts. For these reasons, Toyota believes that hydrogen has the potential to become “one of the options for the future of motorsport in a carbon neutral society”.

 Toyota’s New GR Rally Machine Roars Like Hell But Emits Almost Nothing

Toyota

The GR Yaris Rally2 H2 Concept is set to make its dynamic debut at Rally Finland, tackling the Harju stage on Thursday and Friday. Behind the wheel will be the four-time World Rally Champion Juha Kankkunen, who currently serves as Deputy Team Principal at TGR-WRT.

After its run on mixed surfaces, the car will be displayed in the service park alongside two other hydrogen-powered Toyota models: the production-ready Mirai (FCEV) and a hydrogen-fueled Tundra prototype.

Toyota And Hydrogen Engines

Toyota is one of the pioneers when it comes to hydrogen tech, although research was initially limited to the more traditional fuel cell powertrains (FCEV), currently found in the production-spec Mirai and Crown Sedan. Still, its engineers have also used liquid hydrogen as fuel for combustion engines, testing their limits in various motorsport activities.

The first Toyota with a hydrogen combustion engine was a modified GR Corolla that has been competing in the Super Taikyu series in Japan since 2021. A similar turbocharged 1.6-liter engine was fitted to the experimental GR Yaris H2 Concept in late 2021 and in the Corolla Cross Hydrogen Concept in late 2022.

Furthermore, Toyota has built prototypes of the Tundra pickup and the HiAce van with hydrogen-fueled V6 engines for testing on public roads. Finally, the GR LH2 Racing Concept combines a hydrogen engine with a hybrid setup, borrowing its chassis from the GR010 Le Mans Hypercar.
