A fan asked Richard Petty whether Erik Jones should put Kyle Larson into the wall the next time he gets an opportunity. As per reports, the Hendrick Motorsports driver shoved Jones several times during last Saturday’s race at Daytona, nearly putting his Camry into the wall while battling for the lead.Despite Larson’s aggression with six laps to go, Jones kept his car from ramming into the outside barrier. He even logged a solid fifth-place finish, marking his third top-five of the season. But should he forget and forgive?Richard Petty, a true legend of the sport, thought Jones knew better than to hold a grudge against Larson.“Erik don't drive like that,” said Richard Petty. “You know what I mean? It's over with, okay? That was last week; forget it, let's go on down the road.”Well, Erik Jones didn’t seek payback. He simply demanded an explanation from Larson. The Legacy Motor Club driver wanted to know Larson’s thoughts during those final laps. Well, a P5 is not a bad finish, but given that it was the regular-season finale and Jones’ last chance to make the playoffs, only a win could have helped.Larson, who has three wins this season, is already locked into the playoffs alongside teammates Chase Elliott, William Byron, and Alex Bowman. Next up for the Elk Grove native is the Cook Out Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway.Scheduled for Sunday, August 31, the 367-lap event is the first race of the 10-race playoff segment. Fans can watch the race on USA (6 p.m. ET onwards) or listen to live radio updates on MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio.“I don’t think anybody’s got it figured out”- Richard Petty weighs in on NASCAR’s horsepower debateSince its debut in the NASCAR Cup Series, the NextGen car has received quite some criticism regarding its quality of racing. Several suggestions have been raised, with the most common one being the necessity of cranking up the horsepower.However, Richard Petty thinks it’s not that simple. Addressing the situation on the Petty Family Racing YouTube channel, the seven-time Cup Series champion said:"I don't think there's any one thing. It's gonna be a combination of things. Whether they give 'em more horsepower, or whether they raise 'em up off the ground a little bit, or whether they take some of the aero deals away, or give it more, whatever it takes."“There is a combination that will make the cars better, but right now I don't think anybody's got it figured out,” he added.Even at 88, Richard Petty remains active as a co-owner of Legacy Motor Club and the chairman of the North Carolina Motorsports Association. Besides that, he also looks after operations at Petty's Garage, a specialty shop for custom and restored cars, located in Randleman, North Carolina.
