Holmes was very vocal post-race about the incident, dishing his thoughts and feelings about the incident in post-race coverage on MAVTV.
"You don't have to race that way. I passed a couple of cars pretty clean and rubbed on a couple, but nothing like that. I didn't have to knock them out of the race track. It's just a lack of respect and hate that people are raised that way." – Bret Holmes on Hailie Deegan#ARCA
