One of the hottest drivers in the garage with four consecutive top-seven finishes, Hendrick Motorsports driver Alex Bowman was a little hot under the collar Friday at Pocono Raceway following on-track tension at Charlotte with Team Penske's Joey Logano. In addressing his stance, Bowman said "he'll get his for sure" in reference to Logano, currently second in the Monster Energy Series standings. "Everybody has to race everybody hard with this package," Bowman said in discussing what happened last week. "There's not a lot of room for give and take. I thought the situation was, there was a good chunk of the race left, it was pretty unnecessary. Probably wouldn't have been as mad as I was about it if he didn't about crash us in practice, which I thought was really unnecessary. "It's all good and he'll get his for sure.” RELATED: Pocono schedule | Who topped practices at Pocono? Bowman finished seventh in the Coca-Cola 600, moving up to 10th in the standings. He was 21st in the standings a month ago, but finished second, second, second and seventh over the last month. "He about crashed us in practice and then he drove into Turn 1 and tried to turn us," Bowman added. "I don’t know. I like Joey a lot and it is what it is. We're all racing hard. I’m not super mad about it. I just thought it was dumb that's all." In an interview with NASCAR.com on Friday afternoon at Pocono, Bowman further explained his position and indicated it wasn't strictly based on events that occurred at Charlotte. "Just a couple situations throughout the course of the year and then in practice last Saturday and then Sunday in the race, it's just like really uncalled for and unnecessary because I race him really clean," Bowman said. "When I say he’s going to get his, I'm not going to go wreck the guy. It's I'm going to race him exactly how he races me. He can have those big saves up the race track or he can stand on the brakes not to wreck us both in the corner instead of me being the one to do it. "Shoot, I feel like I'll have plenty of opportunities and I'm just going to be like the elephant and when it's convenient for me, he'll get it back." Contributing: RJ Kraft, NASCAR.com
