Rajah Caruth Apologizes After Dover Run-In With Jesse Love

His remarks highlight a pattern of contact born of career pressure.

Overview

  • Racing for the lead at Dover on Saturday, Rajah Caruth slid up under Jesse Love on Lap 100 and both cars hit the wall.
  • The impact badly damaged Love’s No. 2 Richard Childress Racing entry and left him 23rd at the finish.
  • Caruth spun again on Lap 112 after a three-wide squeeze that began with JR Motorsports teammate Sammy Smith and involved Harrison Burton.
  • Caruth accepted fault, saying he “wasn’t the cleanest,” has been “too aggressive,” and has “been in the wrong the last two times” with Love after earlier Martinsville and Rockingham run-ins.
  • Results varied by outlet, with Motorsport.com listing Caruth 13th and Kickin’ the Tires reporting 14th and six points below the playoff cutline.
