Speaking to his co-host Mike Davis, the 48-year-old stated, “This sh*t is freaking hard.

It’s hard!”

Mike Davis humorously adds while empathizing with the pain of the JR Motorsports driver, “You are waking up muscles, which were hibernating since the ’90s. We were sleeping just fine.”

It may seem to be a mammoth task for the #88 driver. On the other hand, Dale’s better half Amy seemed to have done great with her friends. “I am looking over Amy and she is doing fine, with a couple of her other girlfriends. They are fine. I can’t tell no.” Dale Jr, also disclosed that “it’s a 50-55 minutes class and I am 5 minutes in and I am like I am gonna take a time out, on every move, in front of everybody.”

He couldn’t help but take a break when the teacher was not looking. Nevertheless, the 2 times Xfinity race winner survived the rest of the session without taking any further breaks.

Dale Jr’s, and Amy’s tryst with fitness may have been a humorous one. But it is certainly evident that the couple does not fail to hype each other up. In the same episode of Dale Jr Download episode, Amy recounts her cryotherapy session with her husband.

She reveals that “I won’t typically sign up for this, I don’t like being cold either. But I tricked him into cryotherapy.” Dale Jr did not have the slightest idea that he would be called in the middle of the day. He thought, “You told me to meet over here, going to eat sushi.” Instead, he was shoved into the ice bucket. These two have been the most adorable couple in NASCAR and an absolute fan favorite. And won’t they be? She has relentlessly supported her better half throughout his career. She has provided the correct impetus that Dale Jr needed to thrive. They even have a vodka manufacturing company together.

Fernando Alonso caught snitching on Max Verstappen

Fernando Alonso took it upon himself to act as a race steward after witnessing Max Verstappen being impeded by Pierre Gasly during qualifying for the Spanish Grand Prix, calling for the Frenchman to be handed a three-place grid penalty. Verstappen was in a league of his own through all three practice sessions in Barcelona with nobody able to get close to the Dutchman.

That trend continued in qualifying, but Verstappen was still keen to get lap times in to avoid finding himself with any unnecessary concerns. Q1 saw lap times tumble quickly towards the end of the session with drivers like Nico Hulkenberg and Oscar Piastri moving above Verstappen in the timesheet.

The reigning two-time world champion was out on track on a hot lap when he was forced to abort after being caught behind Gasly. Alonso was racing just behind the pair of them at the time and had a clear view of the incident. birds-eye is above

“Big impeding on the Alpine on the out-lap to Verstappen,” Alonso said on team radio. “Massive one. I mean into turn four, that will be three places.”

The FIA has shown little mercy in impeding during qualifying with Charles Leclerc punished for a similar incident last week at the Monaco Grand Prix. Gasly is under investigation for two separate incidents having interrupted Carlos Sainz earlier in the session.

The Frenchman ended up qualifying fourth but could drop down as low as 10th if he’s handed two three-place grid penalties. That would help out Lewis Hamilton, who would be bumped up to fourth on the grid to put him in the same row as Lando Norris.

Alonso would also benefit from Gasly being slapped with two penalties after a disappointing end to his qualifying session.

The Spaniard suffered floor damage after going off the track into the gravel in Q1. “The damage was worth a couple of tenths, no more than that,” he said.

“The guys did a good job trying to repair it every time we went in the garage. The last lap in Q3 was quite competitive but I also went the damp part in Turn 10, so it was not my best Saturday. Hopefully a good Sunday tomorrow.”

Kevin Harvick Replacement Emerging

Kevin Harvick Replacement Emerging

2009 Formula 1 world champion Jenson Button made his NASCAR Cup Series — and his overall NASCAR — debut in March’s race at Circuit of the Americas, the first of six road course races on the 2023 schedule.

Button, who drove the No. 15 Ford for Rick Ware Racing in this race, is also set to compete for the team in the races at the Chicago Street Course on Sunday, July 2 and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course on Sunday, August 13.

While Button and lead Sky Sports announcer David Croft exchanged some light-hearted comments about NASCAR during the broadcasts at Albert Park Circuit on Australian Grand Prix weekend, the 43-year-old British driver is reportedly considering running the full Cup Series schedule.

In light of several “road course ringers” competing in select Cup Series road course races, there have been calls for some of them to try the ovals as well, as Button could very well seek out options to do so.

Kevin Harvick Replacement Emerging

 

Could one such option be replacing Kevin Harvick at Stewart-Haas Racing for the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season?

Stewart-Haas Racing already know that they will need to make a driver change for the seventh time in eight offseasons before next year, as the 2014 champion is set to retire and join the Fox Sports broadcast booth once the 2023 season reaches its conclusion.

It seems relatively safe to say that the team’s two Xfinity Series drivers, Riley Herbst and ex-Cup Series driver Cole Custer, are not yet ready to make the jump to the Cup Series, though that could obviously change throughout the year.

Potentially facing somewhat of an identity crisis, given the lack of performance within the four-car team aside from Harvick, could Stewart-Haas Racing take a swing at Button, even if only for one year while their younger drivers continue to develop and/or additional drivers become available?

Another element to consider here is sponsorship. Button’s three-race deal with Rick Ware Racing is backed by Mobil 1, which has a considerably long history with Harvick, Stewart-Haas Racing, and team co-owner Tony Stewart.

With Harvick retiring, longtime partner Busch Beer is set to sponsor a new driver in 2024, and while a formal confirmation hasn’t yet been made, this could leave Stewart-Haas Racing needing to fill a sizable sponsorship gap.

But while it can’t totally be ruled out yet, Jenson Button replacing Kevin Harvick is looking increasingly unlikely for the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season.
Josh Berry has recently emerged as the favorite to replace Harvick and is currently in the midst of finalizing a long-term deal with Harvick’s management firm, KHI Management.

The excitement of winning is overwhelming, but the track poses a tricky challenge to attain victory.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. took to the track on Wednesday to test it out and identify the current challenges. In addressing the drivers, he emphasized that its sharp turns will make the track difficult to conquer. Drivers have already taken note of some issues with the narrowness of the track.

After the Hall of Famer, recently, Kyle Busch, also had the chance to test the track through iRacing. He shared insights about the challenges that drivers will face and highlighted an unusual aspect that he called “weird” of this highly anticipated street race track.

During Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s test run on the track, he expressed his astonishment, stating that he had never seen a track like this before. One particularly challenging section is at Michigan Avenue, where drivers must apply their brakes and reduce their speed to 40 mph. As they decelerate from 140 mph to 40 mph, there will be a cluster of cars in that area, creating a situation where everyone will be vying for accurate passing opportunities.

Kyle Busch Joins Dale Earnhardt Jr’s Scary Take

Dale Jr. raised concerns about a potential ‘traffic jam’ scenario, explaining, “Drivers are going to force each other into barriers. They’re not going to move over and allow each other the room they’re going to need. There’s gonna be a lot of contested spots where drivers are gonna push each other into walls even unintentionally.”

Similarly, when Kyle Busch tested the track, he noted that the corners were “really, really tight.” Even in the simulator, he addressed it by saying, “You’re coming down this straightaway and there’s another straightaway there, but the ground, the road is separated with a wall in the middle and there’s cones that are blocking off where they don’t want you to go, so I thought that was weird.”

Busch suggested extending the wall, but NASCAR has got a reason behind it. KBM owner addressed the reason by saying, “I’m like, just extend the wall, but maybe they don’t want to extend the wall because they need areas for safety crews to get out. I’m not the scientist on that. It just seemed weird when you’re coming around the corner and you’ve got to miss the end of a wall.”
