Playoff contenders William Byron and Denny Hamlin began a feud Sunday at Texas, as Byron took exception to being run into the wall by Hamlin and retaliated by spinning Hamlin coming to a caution. Screengrab from USA Network broadcast.

While battling for second position in the late stages of Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series Autotrader EchoPark 500 at Texas Motor Speedway, William Byron was squeezed slightly into the wall by fellow championship contender Denny Hamlin.

Here is a view of the incident, which sent Byron’s No. 24 car into the outside wall:

Byron didn’t like Hamlin’s move, and when the caution came out for race leader Martin Truex Jr. blowing a tire and backing into the wall on lap 268, Byron decided to exact revenge.

The driver of the No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro pulled up behind Hamlin’s No. 11 car and sent Hamlin spinning through the infield grass.

Here is video of the chaos:

And here is how it looked from inside the No. 24 car:

And here is another look at all of the craziness:

Following Byron’s retaliation, Hamlin sought out Byron on the track under caution and attempted to intimidate Byron and take his place in the running order back.

However, NASCAR ruled that Hamlin had to drop back to around 20th-position due to not maintaining pace car speed, while spinning out.
