2026 NASCAR onboards: Kevin Magnussen vs. Noah Gragson at San Diego

Breakdown of the Kevin Magnussen vs. Noah Gragson beef. It began when Magnussen put the bumper to Noah and knocked him out of the way in Turn 12 on about Lap 25 which set him off. "All these F1 dickheads just think they get fenders and a fuckin' bumper, they just drive in the inside and just barrel into everyone. I've fuckin' had it." Gragson shipped Magnussen in the chicane about a lap after their initial contact, then drove up and against Magnussen during the caution for the Turn 1 pileup, gave him the finger for several moments, then gave him the finger again when they stopped for the red flag. Once the red flag was lifted and Magnussen passed Noah (after being told he'd line up between the 43 and 4), Noah took a shot at Magnussen's right rear fender and then his door. On the restart, Noah shipped Magnussen into Turn 3 and continued taking shots at him. Things finally calmed down for awhile until the Tyler Reddick spin, in which Noah ended up passing Magnussen. The next lap after Alex Bowman passed Noah, it looked like Magnussen just cleaned him out in Turn 4. "Welp, the 4 just got shipped. I don't know if it was by us or somebody else, but he's in the wall." "To be honest to you, it looked like it was us."
