Listen to Chase Elliott’s angry radio exchanges at the 2024 Brickyard 400
Chase Elliott finished 10th in the 2024 Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, but it was an up-and-down day. Elliott was in the top 3 spots in Stage 1 and committed a blend line violation. The driver of the No. 9 car was black-flagged and forced to have a drive-through on pit road. Elliott was less than pleased and blew up on the radio to his No. 9 team. Elliott didn’t think he committed a penalty, but NASCAR didn’t give in to the No. 9 team. The 2020 NASCAR Cup Series champion laid into the sport, saying he did exactly what the sheet stated.
