On lap 113, Denny Hamlin and Alex Bowman were in a battle inside the top 10. The battle went on for a few laps. Hamlin threw a slider, clearing Bowman.
Hamlin stuck his hand out the window likely as a thank you. The No. 11 driver might have been under the impression that Bowman let him go.

Alex Bowman mad at Denny Hamlin on the team radio
Bowman jumped on the radio soon after Hamlin stuck his hand out of the window.
“Tell him to put his hand back in the window and don’t drive me in the (expletive) fence next time, “Bowman stated over the team radio.
The team responded, “Yeah, I’m with ya dog.”
The crew added, “Keep doing your thing man. We’re good. You got some (expletive) wheels here and you’re still really fast. So, we’ll get you tuned up and we’ll be all good later.”
Hamlin later exited the race due to a mechanical failure.
