Well, two weeks [after Nashville], the feud [between Ricky Stenhouse Jr and Carson Hocevar] reignited in a big way as NASCAR took on Mexico City. Hocevar was involved in several incidents throughout the race in a difficult day for the Spire Motorsports drivers. He also caused the final caution of the race after losing control in the final corner and stalling his No. 77 Chevrolet.
Later on, he was running a lap down as he followed Stenhouse into the stadium section. Stenhouse was on the lead lap, running 23rd, but Hocevar entered a little too hot as he battled his car. He ran into the back of Stenhouse, spinning him out yet again. Stenhouse fell to 26th, ultimately dropping down to 27th by the time the checkered flag flew.
After the race, Stenhouse did not hide his frustration, marching over to Hocevar’s car and sticking his head in the window to shout at him. In-car cameras caught most of the discussion
“I’m gonna beat your ass,” said Stenhouse. “You’re a lap down, you got nothing to do, why’d you run right into me?”
