## Resource

NASCAR officials called Zane Smith and Carson Hocevar into a post-race meeting after a fiery crash at Chicagoland, but tensions only escalated. Smith, furious and unapologetic, called Hocevar a “coward” and slammed his fanbase on social media, claiming the rivalry is rooted in past teammate clashes and Nashville incidents. Hocevar, baffled and defensive, joked about needing “couple’s therapy” and stood firm against personal attacks, even questioning the source of the feud. While Smith vows to “race how you’re raced,” Hocevar embraces the heat, seeing their clash as fuel for the sport’s passion — even if it means he’s the target.
