Watch: Humiliating moment for Toyota as Erik Jones, Bubba Wallace and Denny Hamlin wrecks while drafting at Talladega

Coming into Turn 3, Jones lost control of his No:43 car after slightly lifting up and Wallace’s No:23 Camry bumped him. Jones crashed hard onto the wall alongside Wallace. Hamlin, who was behind them wasn’t able to avoid the chaos and was caught in the incident, while other two JGR driver was able to get out without any damages.

Replays of the incident suggest that three drivers played major role in the incident. Jones’s car suddenly moving to the left and slowing down started it all. Wallace wasn’t able to keep control of his car and Nemechek aggressive pushing of the 23XI Racing car was vital as well. No one can be predominantly blamed for the chaos.

Denny Hamlin gives his perspective of the incident

The No:11 Toyota driver was the innocent by stander in the incident. He pointed out that he is unsure what happened, and hinted that a bad push towards the front was the reason for their crash. He sees the incident as poetic considering their strategy.

I just saw the No. 43 get turned and then I got turned. I’m really not sure which one happened first. Obviously, there was a bad push towards the front and wiped us all out. It’s just poetic. Denny Hamlin said.

It was fortunate that a Toyota driver was able to come out victorious, otherwise the incident would’ve hunt them for long. The three TRD team has to have a discussion over what happened and needs t find solution before the Daytona race towards the end of the regular season.
