NASCAR driver Carson Hocevar has denied any intentional wrongdoing following an on-track incident with Austin Cindric, stating the pair "were just having fun" during the encounter.
The incident occurred during a recent race weekend, though specific event details were not disclosed in initial reports. Hocevar's comments suggest the contact was part of competitive racing rather than deliberate aggression.
Both drivers compete in NASCAR's top series, where close-quarters racing frequently leads to contact between competitors. Hocevar's explanation aligns with common driver perspectives on racing incidents that appear more severe from outside the car.
