That sin is to never, ever, wreck your teammate. He has attempted to wreck rivals for series championships, spun out opposing drivers for no apparent reason and has broken the cardinal sin of motorsports. Throughout his career, he has never second-guessed punting an opposing driver out of the way. Gragson treats his car as a weapon of mass destruction. I find it genuinely frightening that so many fans are drawn to him. He has forged an identity as one of NASCAR’s dirtiest and most disrespectful drivers. I think Gragson represents everything wrong with NASCAR.
Many are drawn to him thanks to his personality and aggressive driving style, and some have claimed that he is exactly the type of driver NASCAR needs in its ranks. While he is still developing his skills as a racer, Gragson has already developed a large fan following. Gragson has driven mostly top-tier equipment for his entire career but his results don’t indicate that, as he has managed just four wins across NASCAR’s top-3 touring series. In 2016, he made the jump up to the NASCAR Truck Series, spent three seasons racing there, then joined the Xfinity Series in 2018 where he races to this day. Gragson began racing in NASCAR in 2015, spending two seasons in the regional series with some solid results.
To answer that question, we look no further than Noah Gragson. So, what happens when a driver attempts to play the role of the villain, but ends up actually becoming one in the garage area. They still are given the utmost respect by their peers and fanbase. While they may be viewed as a villain, they aren’t necessarily a bad person. The role of the villain is where things get complicated.Ī NASCAR villain is traditionally a driver who is disliked by the fanbase due to their success on track, attitude towards other drivers and media or controversial personality. For a driver to play the role of the hero, it’s fairly straightforward. I often refer to NASCAR as “the great american drama” and, like any great drama, NASCAR has its share of heroes and villains.
