Joey Logano said he didn’t care about Baseball Hall of Famer Chipper Jones’ criticism of him for a radio hearing on teammate Austin Cindric during last weekend’s race in Talladega, and asked: “Did Chipper Jones ever rode a race car in Talladega?”
Logano commented on SiriusXM Nascar Radio’s “The Morning Drive on Tuesday.” Logano also said on the show that he and Cindric were talking and “we went on.”
Logano chased Bubba Wallace to win the second phase this weekend at Talladega. Cindric was behind Wallace in the upper track. Logano led the inner lane.
Wallace won the stage. After that, Logano unleashed an explodingly filled hiring on the radio of his team over Cindric and said: ‘Way to go to Austin. Away to go. You dumb (explosive). Away to (exploding) go. What a stupid (exploding). He just gave it to Toyota.
Jones, the former Atlanta Braves player who was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2018 and served as honorary official for the 2018 Daytona 500, said on X: “Congratulations to @Austincindric on his @Talladega Win. Good teammates are hard to come, boss! Remember that one of URS you MFED on national TV on national TV, if you have done everything possible in all topicality to ruin him. Hate to be #Dueces at the ‘team’ meeting Monday. Some people are ‘whore for our team as long as I’m the star’ as every team has it. Hendrick, RCR, JGR, Penske, etc. Sometimes Karma is delicious. Enjoy this one! If someone is confused, I must be clear …@joeylogano‘
Jones also posted on X Logano’s post-race interview of Fox and wrote: ‘Couldn’t even congratulate @Austincindric In the post race! #teamplayer At least he mentions that he was selfish in the interview. Credit! “
Nascar discovers problems with both cars in inspection after Sunday’s race.
Logano asked Nascar Radio on Jones’ comments on social media on Tuesday, saying he was not aware of it. Logano once told them, ‘Has Chipper Jones ever driven a race car at Talladega? That would be my first question. I’m pretty sure he didn’t.
“It’s like I’m saying something about baseball. I don’t know anything about baseball. It’s like me to say something that he did something in baseball that was wrong. It doesn’t matter.
“You care about what people say, their opinion, if you really know them and know them, and they understand the scenario and the situation. Everyone is going to have their opinion on how they see things from the outside.
“No one else, no one, Chipper Jones, no race fans, no one is in the room when we come up how we will chase at Superspeedways except the drivers, the team chiefs with Penske and the crew headers. That’s it. These are the only opinions that matter. only the.
“So everyone can talk about what they want. They don’t know the situation. They don’t know everything that goes into it, so it doesn’t matter what they say, and that’s probably why I never saw (Jones’ comments on social media) or really care about it after you told me now. Chipper Jones, he’s a good baseball player, but he’s not a track, and I know he wasn’t in the balance, but he’s not a race, and I know he wasn’t a race driver, and I don’t know we put the way things are supposed to go, in place.
“You would think that someone who was in professional sports and in such meetings would probably take a step back and say,” Man, there is probably more the story here than there is. “I’m surprised that it was just as bored.
A look at the winners and losers of Sunday’s race at Talladega Superspeedway: Austin Cindric-He cut a 30-racing winning streak with his win on Talladega on Sunday.
Logano also explained his frustration over SiriusXM Nascar radio with Cindric’s role in Wallace’s stage victory.
“You’re going to be Superspeedway races, there are different rules for the teams,” Logano said. ‘There are the (manufacturer) rules, there are the team rules and you try to put it all in place to give your cars the best chance to win. Everyone knows that the super speed you have to work together. … The rules set in place did not follow. It marked me a little, because I always feel the right thing and try really hard to do it.
‘The rules are set because of things we have done wrong in the past. You don’t want to make the same mistakes over and over. It was not the first offense. It was the straw that broke the camel’s back, and yes, I quickly lit up quickly because I care. I’m chasing, I’m 100%, and I expect things to go in a certain way.
“Austin and I talked about it. We have to go forward. That’s what it is. I explained my side. He understood it. We’re going on. That’s just about everything there. We went on. “
“Would I have hit the (radio) button and probably ended up so much? Probably not. Probably not. Probably not. Probably inflated in a little bigger situation than it needed, but the conversation had to happen anyway. Only more people are talking about it now. “
Cindric explained his view what happened at the end of the second phase after winning last weekend’s race.
“I felt like I had just pinched a little and was trying not to ruin the cars in front of me, including Joey,” Cindric said after his third win in the career. “So it was a sloppy end to the stage and I felt like between myself and (Josh Berry) and Joey could probably have done better, because I felt like we were slipping a person there.
“I can understand his frustration without seeing the whole picture, but yes, this is the kind of things that if you expect someone to have your best interest, these are the challenges. We have a lot of meetings around it, and I feel like it’s constant, and it’s constant maintenance. It’s not always beautiful and the conversations aren’t always easy, but I feel like a team that we do it better than most. ‘
