Denny Hamlin Warns Stenhouse Jr. 'Will Wreck' Hocevar For Nashville Crash

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Denny Hamlin has warned that Ricky Stenhouse Jr. "will wreck" Carson Hocevar after the latter crashed into the rear of the Hyak Motorsports driver during the Cup Series race at Nashville Superspeedway. Stenhouse Jr. then lost control of his car and crashed into the wall, leading him to finish the race last. Hocevar, meanwhile, secured second place. Newsweek Sports reported Stenhouse Jr.'s post-race comments, hinting at imminent retaliation against Hocevar. He said: "A lap or two before, he [Hocevar] tried to dive in there from about 10 car lengths back and then that time, I just opened my entry a little bit and he over-charged the corner and drilled us in the rear bumper. Denny Hamlin, driver of the #11 Progressive Toyota, looks on during the NASCAR Cup Series All-Star Race qualifying heat #2 at North Wilkesboro Speedway on May 17, 2025 in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina. Denny Hamlin, driver of the #11 Progressive Toyota, looks on during the NASCAR Cup Series All-Star Race qualifying heat #2 at North Wilkesboro Speedway on May 17, 2025 in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina."I'd say it's not out of the norm from him, but I definitely wasn't expecting that at that point of the race. It's just a bummer for us." He added: "Bummed our day ended like that. Definitely will have something to do about it at one point." Now, Hamlin has backed Prime Video's on-air analysts, Carl Edwards, Dale Earnhardt Jr., and Steve Letarte, who stressed that Stenhouse Jr. will strike back. Speaking on the Actions Detrimental podcast, Hamlin said: "The Amazon guys described this perfectly. Like, when I listened to the post-race, I thought they did a phenomenal job of saying and Carl said, 'Eventually, they'll be a price.' You're gonna be running really well and you can take this to the book: Ricky Stenhouse will absolutely wreck Carson Hocevar sometime in the near future. That's just a fact. I'd put this week's salary on it. I'm not kidding you. He ain't gonna punch him in the face, but he will absolutely wreck him because Ricky's that kind of guy who is going to feed into people saying, 'Are you going to get him?'" Warning Carson, Hamlin continued: "If you're Carson, just know that it's coming. So, don't be surprised. ... There's nothing I'm more confident of right now other than Jordan [Fish] having a baby and Ricky wrecking Carson. I just feel that is inevitable. I don't think there's anything Carson can say." Hamlin also praised the Prime Video analysts for pointing out the opportunity Hocevar had to make amends. He said: "This is where I think Amazon did a great job. Their analysts said that Carson had a shot to be empathetic to Ricky Stenhouse, who he just wrecked, in an interview and he chose not to. He [Hocevar] said, 'He could have cut me a break.' Hold on, this guy is wrecked, on the trailer and you're telling him he should have cut you a break? It's gonna come back to him. "Carson hasn't done anything egregious to me, yet, but I guarantee you that if he does, I'm going to get him because he has gotten a lot of people, and they haven't done anything about it."

Will Cristiano Ronaldo score against Germany in the Nations League? (EPA) Germany vs Portugal Betting Tips Germany to win by two goals - 9/2 Bet365 Cristiano Ronaldo to score at any time - 41/20 BetMGM The first of the Nations League semi-finals get underway on Wednesday when Germany host Portugal at the Allianz Arena. Spain take on France in the other last-four match on Thursday, with the final and third-placed play-off matches taking place on Sunday. Advertisement The ground in Munich played host to an amazing match on Saturday as Paris Saint-Germain ran riot in the Champions League final, beating Inter Milan 5-0 and the German fans would love to see their side achieve the same scoreline this time out. Portugal finished top of the Group 1 table with four wins and two draws from their six matches, while Germany topped Group 3 with an identical record. This is the first time Julian Nagelsmann's side have reached the semi-finals of the competition, while for Portugal, they are looking to lift the trophy for the second time after being crowned champions in the first year of the competition in 2019. It is the German side who are favourites on football betting sites to win the competition at odds of 7/4, just ahead of Spain at 9/4, while Portugal are the outside bet at 5/1. Germany vs Portugal betting tips: Germany to prove too strong This is the first time the two sides have met in this competition, but they have plenty of history in other international competitions. Advertisement Their last competitive meeting came at the same venue, when they met in the group stages of Euro 2020, and it was Germany, who were victorious, running out 4-2 winners, despite Portugal opening the scoring. Cristiano Ronaldo gave his side the lead after just 15 minutes, but own goals from Ruben Dias and Raphaël Guerreiro put Germany ahead before Kai Havertz and Robin Gusens gave them a 4-1 lead. Diogo Jota pulled a goal back for Portugal, but they were outclassed by the Germans, as they secured their 11th win over their opponents. Portugal have only won three of the 19 meetings between the two sides, while five have ended all square. Advertisement It's hard to see anything but a win for Germany on Wednesday, after all, they have had the trickier of the routes to the final, beating the current European champions, Italy, in the semi-finals. Following a 2-1 win away in Milan, the two sides played out a 3-3 thriller in Dortmund, with Joshua Kimmich, Jamal Musiala and Tim Kleindienst all on target to give them a 3-0 half-time lead. Moise Kean scored twice for Italy before a penalty deep in added time was converted by Giacomo Raspadori, but it wasn't enough, and Germany went through 5-4 on aggregate. Portugal, on the other hand, lost the first leg of their semi-final, beaten 1-0 by Denmark in Copenhagen, but bounced back in style, winning the second leg 5-2 after extra time despite Ronaldo missing a sixth-minute penalty. Advertisement Betting sites have Germany at 93/100 for the win, with Portugal 10/3, and you can get 45/16 for a draw after 90 minutes. Nagelsmann's side are the leading scorers in the competition with 23 goals from their eight games, and they have conceded just eight, the same number as Portugal. Germany vs Portugal prediction 1: Germany to win by two goals - 9/2 Bet365 Germany vs Portugal prediction: Who else but Ronaldo? If Portugal are to get anything in Munich, then so much will depend on the performance of their talisman, Cristiano Ronaldo. He has scored a world record 136 goals since making his Portugal debut back in 2003, and he is also the all-time leading appearance-maker in men's international football, having played 219 games, breaking the previous record of 196 set by Kuwait's Bader Al-Mutawa against Liechtenstein in March 2023. Advertisement He has also scored ten international hat-tricks, a record he shares with who else but Lionel Messi. Betting apps are offering 6/1 on him scoring first or 41/20 on him scoring anytime. You can also get 70/1 on him adding to his number of hat-tricks. With the 40-year-old believed to be looking for a new club in time to take part in the inaugural Fifa Club World Cup, he will be desperate to impress.
