Rick Hendrick, the legendary team owner who Larson races for, appeared to be upset with Chastain’s style of racing. Chastain has drawn the ire of plenty of drivers over the course of the 2023 season.

"I don’t care if he’s driving a Chevrolet if he wrecks our cars," Hendrick said, via NBC Sports. "I don’t care. I’ve told Chevrolet that. If you wreck us, you’re going to get it back. If you don’t do it, they’ll run all over you. I’m loyal to Chevrolet, but when somebody runs over us, then I expect my guys to hold their ground. I’m not going to ask them to yield just because of Chevrolet."

Hendrick said Chastain does not have to be so aggressive.
