Kyle Busch, also called Rowdy, is known in the NASCAR community for his polarizing personality. He has always been under the reporters’ eyes, as he often says stuff that grabs media attention. Very recently, Busch took a jib at the newer generations of NASCAR drivers, stating that they don’t show enough respect.

Rowdy Busch teaches etiquette to younger drivers

Calling out younger drivers is not something new for Kyle. This happened back in 2021 as well. As per nesn.com, Busch back then said, “The way all this has gone on the last four or five years, with a newer generation coming in, has completely ruined it from what it used to be.”

However, this time things are different, as he has provided a resolution as well. When asked, “What is this solution going forward because it seems like there’s an impasse between you guys talking to the younger drivers, and I’m not hearing following deaf ears? What is this solution?”

Busch replied, “Yeah. I mean solution starts with repercussions.” 

“There isn’t any so why listen, why show any respect, and why do anything that you should do, um you know etiquette-wise if there’s no repercussions, so yeah.”

What Kyle said seems more like a dig at the younger drivers than a piece of advice. He revealed that there’s no need for them to show any respect, as there are no repercussions for it. But what did he say in his previous interview that led the reporter to ask him this question?
