NASCAR has a new feud between Ty Gibbs and Joey Logano
On Saturday, the 2024 NASCAR season opened with an exhibition race in Los Angeles, California.. The Clash at the Coliseum is a chaotic non-points event on a 1/4-mile bullring.
Hear from Denny Hamlin below.
Ty Gibbs and Joey Logano have been building a feud. The disagreement between the two NASCAR Cup Series drivers began last season at Martinsville Speedway.

And in the first race of the season, it was reignited. While racing for the lead, Gibbs missed the corner, run Logano wide and took both of them out of contention for the win.
After the race, Logano was heated. He walked over to the hauler of the No. 54 car to have a chat. Gibbs attempted to bring the conversation into the hauler and away from the public but Logano wasn’t interested in the invitation.

Denny Hamlin is a teammate to Gibbs at JGR. He’s also had a number of his own altercations with Logano, dating back more than a decade.

Denny Hamlin comments on Ty Gibbs
“Ty was saying, ‘Hey, come on in the hauler. Let’s do this privately.’ And Joey did not want to do it. He wanted to do it right there on the lift gate.”
“And so that opened it up a little bit more. Do I think this was kind of a scare you tactic? Yeah, probably.”
“I just think that Ty wasn’t going to take any sh**. And you kinda heard it from his reaction. Like, ‘So what? Go for it.’ “
“And, that’s just a dangerous game to play, on both sides. Right? Because your season hasn’t even started and you got two guys that are angry at each other.”
“Again, when both of them are just fine wrecking each other, that’s not going to be good for either one. So, they gotta get it worked out somehow.”
“My advice, I actually said to Ty was to be the first one to extend the olive branch. If he doesn’t pay back that, it’s free game.”
