Early Season Boiling Points

Denny Hamlin captured his 61st NASCAR Cup Series victory in Las Vegas, but the big story of the week was Daniel Suarez and Ross Chastain's confrontational spillover on pit road. Motorsports reporter Jeff Gluck dove into the story with both feet, interviewing Daniel on SiriuxSM and then inviting Ricky Stenhouse Jr., the honorary last driver to throw a punch and pay for it, to the Gluckcast to discuss the topic at large. Jeff also chats with Justin Allgaier on the heels of the news that Alex Bowman will be missing the next three races due to lingering affects of vertigo. Justin has been tabbed as the substitute for the 48, and will be juggling getting the car back into contention along with his day job, driving the JR Motorsports number-7 and leading the O'Reilly Series points.
