DARLINGTON, S.C. (AP) — Car owner Rick Hendrick sees the talent in Ross Chastain. He also sees an aggressive style that leaves angry competitors and wrecked cars in his wake. It happened again at Darlington where former NASCAR champions Martin Truex Jr. and Kyle Larson lost their chance at victory after tangling with Chastain. Hendrick says Chastain is building a troubling list of enemies who will almost certainly exact payback on the track. Hendrick knows from experience that’s not the way to win championships.
