Gase, Gallagher exchange words in garage after wreck in practice

RELATED: See the races at Dover | XFINITY practice 1 results DOVER, Del. -- XFINITY Series drivers Joey Gase and Spencer Gallagher had a pair of run-ins during practice Friday morning at Dover International Speedway -- one on the track, one off. With a little more than 20 minutes remaining in opening practice for Saturday's OneMain Financial 200 (1 p.m. ET, FS1), Gase's No. 52 Chevrolet and Gallagher's No. 23 Chevy made heavy contact in Turn 3, pinning significant damage on both rides. Gase approached Gallagher in the "Monster Mile" garage area to hash it out, but the latter wasn't interested in any sort of discussion. "All he said was, 'Get the hell away from me,' " Gase told the FOX Sports broadcast. "He just flat-out spun me going into (Turn) 3 for some reason. We were struggling really bad and I gave him plenty of room and he just drove right into me. I think it just shows how bad of a driver he is. ... I think that's basically all I have to say. ... He didn't give me a reason or anything. ... I just really hate it for my guys; we work the hardest in the garage out of anyone." Replays of the incident made it difficult to determine whose "fault" it was, but, of course, the onus was clear in each driver's mind. "What is he thinking?" Gallagher radioed his GMS Racing crew. "Unbelievable; I'm sorry guys." Both drivers are expected to compete in backup cars Saturday.
