NASCAR Truck Series drivers Nick Sanchez and Stewart Friesen got into a fight on Saturday night following the Weather Guard Truck Race at Bristol Motor Speedway.

The animosity between the two drivers began as Friesen and Sanchez were racing hard and jockeying for positioning in the top 10. Sanchez got into the rear of Friesen and spun his truck around. Sanchez also ran into the wall and messed up one of his tires. Friesen went for a ride and lost position.

Back in the pits, Friesen was really unhappy. One video appeared to show Friesen cursing at Sanchez and then grabbing him by the neck and jerking him forward. The two had to be separated.

"Couldn’t have waited one f---ing corner," Friesen was heard saying.

Both drivers talked about their finishes on X, but neither mentioned the post-race skirmish.

"Ran top-3 all night until a loose wheel on our final stop put us in the back. Driving through the field up top when I got fenced. Fast truck, had a shot until I didn’t. Onto COTA," Sanchez wrote.

"Up and down day at @ItsBristolBaby We searched for speed early and rebounded tonight with Stewart running in the top ten for most of the night. A late race incident in Stage 3 put us too far behind to finish with the speed we were showing," Friesen wrote.
