Hard Feelings in the Heartland | 2025 NASCAR Radioactive from Kansas

What kind of chaos does Kansas have in store today? The racers at this track have been marked by close, unpredictable finishes. Have a good day, fellas. Keep your heads down, stay in it, whatever it takes. It was a rebound from last week. Get back on two boxes and swing that s***. Show them what we're about at this. We're out here having a nice, smooth day. That's all we need. All right, fellas. Obviously, green is our spot today. We've got a fast race car. We will definitely have a shot at winning this thing today. Green flag goes in the air. Chase Frisco scoots out in front of the field. You're clear. No momentum behind you. Tyler Redding has driven his way very swiftly to fifth. Still fighting sight a little bit. Yeah, copy that. Doing really good. Bubba Wallace qualified in the seventh position, but it's been a free fall. I can't drive it to my mark from yesterday, guys. The 99 to us is casually racing us lap down. Denny Hamlin's on the attack once again. A little bit of medium here. Inside. Denny Hamlin takes charge at Kansas. Drive away, guys. Green checkered right here. Denny Hamlin is one, stage one. Great work. Pins are open this time. New York Yankees. Copy that. Four tires and fuel. Most likely around the 20. To the 45, after the 45. Straight back, straight back, straight back. Tyler Redding, disaster on Pin Road. Clear. If the 20 was sinking too, that's what needed to be said. Green flag. Back to the air. Bubba Wallace trying to crack his way into the top five for the first time this afternoon. Good work. Let's lock the f*** in now. Now it's Denny Hamlin on the attack. Clear, clear, clear. Oh, he slides across the nose of Larson. Larson may have some naughty words on his mind. It's fine. Don't freak out. I just got a bad job. Of course. All good, man. Take it off. We are not going home 30th tonight. If we do, I'm going to jump off this f***ing spotter stand. You're fine, Tyler. We're fine. Denny Hamlin has had this race in control for the majority of the afternoon. Five-five. No run. Green and white checkered flag is in the air, and Denny Hamlin sweeps the two stages. Stage three is underway. William Byron currently running 26th. He's lost half of his points with an ill-handling race car. F***ing failure, man. Chase Elliott's fallen off a fair amount the last several laps. You're doing awesome. You're doing great. You're doing the best you can here. We'll keep getting better. Big crash into turn one. Hold the brake. Hold the brake. Car's coming in near at you. Hold the brake. Get it going straight. We're going to have some damage here, Paul. He just turns right. Bobby, f***. Look. Wreckage behind. Copy. Denny Hamlin, a possible steering issue. I think it's broke. F***. I can't f***ing believe it. I mean, he's lost steering completely. Forty-five laps to go. Anything could happen. Caution on the speedway. There's debris on the track. Pit stops will take place at lap 255. It's going to be a short run. What do you need for that? I'd probably go back to the way you were, not this run, but the run before. Copy. A brutal stop for Denny Hamlin. Multiple spots lost. We're going to need about nine more laps from that. Let's get the one every you can here. First car off pit road on four tires was Chase Elliott. A lot of teammates in offense around us, but every man for himself here. The winner goes on. There's going to be nine laps to go from here. Let's do it. Four tires. Here comes the nine. Wallace with the lead. Outback comes Christopher Bell. Carson Hosemar gets turned to the bottom of the back straightaway. Yellow, yellow, yellow. You are the leader. Twenty's going to use me up. We've got to flip the strip here. I need the 45 behind of it. Twenty-three when it knocks us out of the south line, doesn't it? Yeah, that's not good for us. Green line checker here, I guess. No, I'm hoping more. Six to go. You hear the crowd. They know something special's on the line. Green flag is up. Christopher Bell gets a great start. You're clear high by one. Nineteen's in the third group. It's Wallace, Bell, and Briscoe. Nineteen's going to have a run. Watch the bottom. Coming to the white. They're crashing behind them. One car's on its side. Carson's out. Carson's out. Big wreck behind you. Red flag and get on the back stretch. Forty-five has one f***ing job, man. One f***ing job. I'm sorry. I'll try not to f*** that up again. We're eighth. Yeah. Still got the best tires around you. Try to stay positive here. At least I'm not panicked on the fuel this time. Amen to that. The red flag has just been lifted, and the field begins to refire. I'm f***ing torn, man. I can't have that happen again. He's not going to do it again, so hopefully he just does it the right way this time. So if that 23 wins, we're right on the cut. So all we can get right here is crucial. Oh, yeah. I figured that. Tell that f***er I'm talking about MJ from the three-throw line. Don't complain. Message delivered. Let's have another go at it. Back on the green. Neither one of you have help. Hit your marks here. Bubba Wallace washes up the racetrack. Nearly gets into Christopher Bell. In the fence. Stay top. Stay clear. Clear. Clear. Hit your marks now. Race leader takes the white flag. It's Bubba Wallace. Here comes Denny Hamlin. Bottom inside. Hit your marks. Bubba's in the wolves. Clear up. Keep coming hard bottom. Keep coming hard bottom. Clear hot. Get the net. It's that net. Chase Elliott comes through on the inside. Keep coming hard. Stay away from it. They sprint to the line. Checker flag is waving. Oh, my goodness. Chase Elliott. Yeah, let's go, baby! Let's f***ing go! Awesome job. Appreciate y'all. Not much I can do about that. Oh, s***. Yeah! Good job, man.
