The fighting gene apparently runs in the Stenhouse family.
On Sunday, Kyle Busch’s No. 7 Chevrolet Camaro spun Ricky Stenhouse Jr.’s No. 47 Chevrolet Camaro on lap 2 of the NASCAR All-Star race at North Wilkesboro Speedway in Wilkesboro, N.C.
The contact led Stenhouse to crash head-on into the wall, which forced the JTG Daugherty Racing driver out of the race early.
After the race, Stenhouse got into a fight with Busch over the collision (video here). The two were separated just seconds after Stenhouse threw the first punch.
But another angle of Stenhouse-Busch confrontation has surfaced on X. The clip showed Busch grappling with Ricky Stenhouse Sr. after the latter’s son was pulled away from the Richard Childress Racing driver.

Busch wasn’t able to land a proper blow on Stenhouse Jr. But the 39-year-old did connect on a pretty clean left hook against Stenhouse Sr.
Busch finished 10th in the exhibition race, while Stenhouse placed last out of 20.
Team Penske driver Joey Logano, who delivered a postrace interview while the Busch-Stenhouse confrontation went down, won the All-Star race.
