Dale Earnhardt Jr. analyzed the Bristol collision between Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Brad Keselowski on his latest podcast.

Spotter TJ Majors shared specific radio calls that predicted the spin before the cars made contact. The breakdown prompted a direct response from Stenhouse regarding the lap 61 incident.

On the latest episode of Dale Jr.’s Dirty Mo Media podcast, he spoke about Stenhouse’s radio and jokingly said, “I thought he said, tell TJ he’s an a******.”

To which Majors immediately quipped back, “No, he said, tell TJ inside.”

Majors said, “We had a little bit of a comedy, exciting moment. I didn’t know it was comical until after the race.”

After rewatching the incident, Majors described it when Dale Jr. asked if Stenhouse came up the racetrack toward Keselowski. “We get to the start-finish line, and he kind of starts, like it was a late dive, but I don’t blame him.”

Majors said that while Stenhouse Jr. got into Keselowski a bit, the RFK driver also closed the door as they got up the track, and Stenhouse just continued until Keselowski was spun out.

Stenhouse Jr. Speaks Out on Keselowski Spin

While the incident happened on lap 61, both Keselowski and Stenhouse Jr. were able to pick up points. Keselowski brought the #6 RFK Ford Mustang home in 14th, while Stenhouse Jr. finished 17th in the #47 Chevrolet for Hyak Motorsports.

The finish did not affect the standings much, with RFK Racing staying ahead on consistency. Hyak Motorsports remains further back, where results like this do little to close the playoff gap and keep them needing a stronger stretch or a win.

While spotter TJ Majors called it, saying, “Bumper, bumper, bumper, bumper, he’s just gonna wreck you here,” after the spin, Majors said, “Yeah, he just wrecked you.”

After the incident, there was talk about how Stenhouse Jr. may have had an issue and that his car was probably loose. Dirty Mo Media put on the driver’s cam footage from the #47 Chevrolet and asked, “Still think Stenhouse Jr. got loose?”

To which the #47 driver himself replied, “No, I didn’t get loose.”

NASCAR fans often enjoy direct interaction between veteran personalities and active drivers on social media during the week.
