Phoenix gave us a little bit of everything, and this week on Below the Yellow Line, Sal Nicosia and Buddy Pulley break it all down. From Ryan Blaney putting on a clinic in the Cup race, to the ongoing debate around the Phoenix dogleg and track limits, to Justin Allgaier reminding everybody why experience still matters in the Xfinity Series, there was no shortage of headlines coming out of the desert. The guys also dive into some of the biggest stories off the track, including: Cleetus McFarland’s NASCAR deal with RCR Carson Hocevar and Monster Energy sponsorship rumors The Joe Gibbs Racing / Chris Gabehart lawsuit Alex Bowman sidelined with vertigo and Anthony Alfredo stepping in Why Joey Logano’s day turned into a complete disaster and whether Ford is starting to swing momentum back their way Plus, the weekly AI Slop segment returns, the guys make their Dead Ass Last picks for Las Vegas, and somehow the conversation also includes pizza, Domino’s cult meetings, Wawa lore, and whether spotters have too much influence in modern NASCAR. If you like motorsports talk with strong opinions, dumb jokes, solid race breakdowns, and absolutely zero legal credibility, you’re in the right place.
