I like Hendrick, which is why I'm a bit annoyed that Johnson is taking so much flak lately. Yeah, he's an aggressive driver, but I've yet to see the same sort of tactics out of Hendrick that DEI fields. Earnhardt Jr apparently doesn't take losing very well, referring to Johnson as an idiot due to the Talladega wreck which was caused equally if not more by his bump drafting (which is what caused Wallace to shimmy in the first place). Restrictor plate racing is much more dangerous due to the tight fields and all of the drivers are taking stupid risks; DEI in particular seems out to blame the guy on top, which is not cool if you ask me.
Gordon, nobody can deny that he's an impressive and professional driver, even if not the most eloquent man on the planet. I hardly see what that has to do with his on track performance anyway.. and Hendrick's entire team shows a lot of talent.
