Christopher Bell on COTA showdown with Kyle Busch: "I wanted to make sure I didn't rough him up"

Christopher Bell and Kyle Busch had an outstanding battle in the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix last Sunday. According to Bell, Busch, who is on a 60-race winless streak, had the 'most hunger' to win the Cup race at COTA.

However, the #20 driver made sure he raced his former teammate 'respectfully.'

"I felt like I had the upper hand in terms of car speed and tire life and I was just trying to be respectful of making my move on him. I didn't want to get overzealous and push the issue too quickly...I wanted to make sure I didn't rough him up," Bell said during the latest episode of Dale Jr. Download podcast [1:43:00 onwards].

"He was racing, he probably had the most hunger out of all of us being Kyle Busch, the winless streak he's on. I know he wanted to win really bad and it was not going to be an easy pass by any stretch of the imagination," he added.

Meanwhile, the Shriners Children's 500 is scheduled for this Sunday at 3:30 PM Eastern time.
