To pretend this isn't going both ways is very disingenuous, I could be wrong, but I believe that JR started the war of words. I don't know JR, or ever spoke to him, but my interactions with Alex have always been very cordial and pleasant.
Alex isn't the only driver JR has had words with. Cruz is one I can think of
Force a few years ago..........Force did fire the first shot though
Was just going to post the same thing.
I was wondering the same. These are two people who, up to this point, I didn't think had a beef with anyone.
It wasn’t JR, it was Alex during top end interview, just casually mid interview. That’s what struck me, how random and seamless it was, like it was just part of his rehearsed spiel. Very nonchalant.
I remember that incident. I obviously don't know the back story - if any - but getting pissed because Laughlin called JR's DHL entry a FedEx car seems a mite petty if taken at face value. But as mentioned I sometimes wonder if a few of these dustups aren't contrived after hours somewhere over drinks in the interest of generating attention. Everybody seems to enjoy a brouhaha now and then.
