Drivers need to be more ethical, take responsibility for their actions, and race hard, but that’s difficult to do in an environment where Kyle Busch says the competitors no longer respect one another.

“That’s where the problem lies,” Busch said. “Nobody gives two shits about anybody else. It’s just a problem where everybody takes advantage of everybody as much as they can. We’re all selfish, granted, but there was an etiquette that once did live here.”

Busch cites NASCAR Hall of Fame member Mark Martin as starting the racing etiquette in the Cup Series and noted Tony Stewart lived by it as did Jeff Gordon, Bobby Labonte, Dale Jarrett and Rusty Wallace “for the most part.”
