Joe Gibbs Racing lost two drivers together, of course, they first lost Kyle Busch from the Cup Series team and then Brandon Jones from the Xfinity Series team. But, interestingly, Jones didn’t get to announce his departure, because Dale Earnhardt Jr. announced it before the Xfinity driver could share his excitement. And clearly, Busch wasn’t happy as he took a dig at Junior.

But he might have ruined another driver’s day in the process.

Chandler Smith just announced that he will head to Kaulig Racing’s Xfinity Series team next year. Great news for Busch, because Smith is one of his best drivers in the truck series. Funny enough, when the Truck series playoff leader announced the news on his Instagram, Busch took a dig at Dale Jr’s way of announcing the news.

Kyle commented on the post saying, “Congrats! Someone that got to announce their own news 👍🏻”

This is hilarious because Busch is making fun of when Junior announced his new driver even before he could!

And the fans can’t hold it in!

NASCAR fans lose it as Kyle Busch takes a dig at Dale Earnhardt Jr.

Some fans even took a dig at the media for leaking information before it was officially announced.

And some singled out Jordan Bianchi as the culprit.

But going beyond the funny announcement, there’s a major shake-up in Kaulig Racing.
