The move certainly put Mr. Leary in a bind. His choice was hit the inside wall, hit Larson, or get on the binders to not destroy anyone's equipment. I think Leary has a legitimate gripe, but is probably more of a gripe that he wasn't raced the same way he was racing Larson and got taken advantage of because of it. Dirty move? I don't think so, but maybe more of a disrespectful move would be a more accurate description.
Leary gave him room to race and Mr. Larson made him pay for it by taking that room and then some. That aggressive nature wins races. The higher up the ladder of motorsports you go, the more that attitude is rewarded with victory. For someone who has been at the top levels honing that mental attitude and coming back to the regional ranks, it can be devastating to the local competition, which we are seeing. Racers better adapt to this, or be left in the back eating dust.
