Dale Jarrett tells Brad Keselowski and Carson Hocevar to "act like men"
Just minutes before the start of Sunday's NASCAR Cup race at WWT Raceway, USA Sports spoke with Brad Keselowski and Carson Hocevar. Keselowski seemed to indicate that relation could still be on the table, but only if he has a poor day on track.

Carson Hocevar's recent spin of Brad Keselowski has sparked intense discussion in the NASCAR community after the incident at Darlington. Denny Hamlin, NASCAR Hall of Famers, and Hocevar's team owner have all chimed in on the incident. Freddie Kraft, spotter for Bubba Wallace and host of the Door Bumper Clear podcast, expressed his frustration with Hocevar's flippant attitude towards the contact and his decision to promote the controversy.
Kraft said, "He wants attention. I heard Denny’s show yesterday where he said, 'I’m not giving him the clip he wants.' I’m going to give him the clip he wants, because he’s doing dumb sh*t. I’m going to call him out on it." Kraft disapproved of Hocevar's social media post after the incident and his interview, questioning whether the Southern 500 victory should be overshadowed by the controversy.
He strongly believes Hocevar has the potential to be among the best drivers in the sport, but is disappointed that he is "wasting how talented he is playing a f***ing game." Kraft admitted he was initially angry with Hocevar over his actions, but stood by his decision to call him out, saying, "You got him again. You’re the one plummeting in the standings."
Despite his anger, Kraft was pleased to see Hocevar drop in the standings, noting the team's jump in rankings as a result.
