Dale Earnhardt Jr calls Denny Hamlin's move on Kyle Larson 'dirty'
Fox News
Denny Hamlin faced criticism from Dale Earnhardt Jr. over the move to get around Kyle Larson at Pocono and eventually win the race on Sunday.
Ryan Gaydos is a senior editor for Fox News Digital.
"Denny gets position in the middle of the corner. Larson missed the corner, didn’t get through the corner as well. Denny gets wheel-to-wheel mid corner," Earnhardt said on the latest "Dale Jr. Download" podcast. "He makes a decision in that moment to throttle up and drive up the racetrack and door the hell out of the No. 5. There’s contact, he’s coming up the track.
"I agree that it was a dirty move to door him. To throttle up and door him, but it’s for the win. It’s not how you would expect friends to race friends."
