Michigan delivers another heartbreaking finish for Carson HCEVAR


Brooklyn, Mich.-while other drivers got out of their cars after Sunday’s 400-mile race at Michigan International Speedway, Carson Hocevar put in his vehicle on Pit Road.

When he finally out of his no. 77 Chevrolet comes, walks around the car and looks at Denny Hamlin’s victory celebration shortly after the distance. It was another bowel for the 22-year-old native of Michigan.

The warning Hocevar needed to stretch fuel at the end of the race never came and a flat tire forced him to strike from the 19 round.

The result was a 29th place that will forget the most, but not hcevar.

“It’s just like (revive) the trucks,” Hocevar said at Pit Road. “But you do it before a big stage. The difference is that I felt like I was throwing them away. Now they are being taken away … things beyond our control. ‘

The Joe Gibbs Racing Star took the lead of William Byron on lap 197 of 200.

While Hocevar seems to have achieved his first cup career victory, Heartbreak has made him this season. Sunday just added to a growing list. Consider:

His engine blew while he was second in the last phase of last month’s Coca-Cola 600 on Charlotte.

In Texas last month, he placed from sixth in the final phase. The warning came two laps later, which put him a shot and forced him to take a wave around to get back on the front shot. If he had hit a shot later, he would probably have been in an excellent place to win. Instead, he finished 24th.

At Bristol in April, he ran third when his team had a 22 -second pit stop, ending the chance of victory. Hocevar finishes 11th.

This does not include this past week’s runner -up in Nashville, blurred by his controversial contact which Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Did not ruin and led to the managers and their crew heads during the week talks.

Alex Bowman walked away from an evil accident in Sunday’s accident in Michigan.

Sunday pain was clearly in Hocevar’s approaching voice on the radio after the race when he told the team with a soft voice: “Good work everyone.”

The crew head Luke Lambert quickly added: “Good job guys. I know it’s heartbreaking. Good job. We put ourselves in position. We’ll keep working. We’ll get us there. We’ll get one soon.”

The lifting of the team is now becoming one of Lambert’s most important roles.

“It’s difficult for all of us,” Lambert said of the recent disappointments. “We just have to step back and look here, we’re constantly in the top three. This is an achievement in itself. If we keep doing this, come our day. ‘

Hamlin agrees.

Denny Hamlin told fans he beat their favorite driver and did part of an Ohio State Cheer in front of a crowd with many fans from the University of Michigan.

“You can’t run as fast as he runs, just as much as he’s in front, without finally winning,” Hamlin said. “I know that panic can sometimes set up. It’s like ‘God, we’ve lost this opportunity. ‘

“But he’s with a team on the rise. He is on the rise. It’s just a matter of time. None of us will be shocked if it’s next week or a month from now.

“I definitely give him a good part of (sad) on Mondays on my podcast, but that doesn’t mean I don’t respect his talent.

‘Absolutely just a superstar when it comes to real raw talent. If he finds out how to utilize it, choose the moments where he is aggressive, he will put it all together and just be the next one. There are five to six elite drivers in this field. He can be one of the five or six very easy if he compiles it all. ‘
