Kyle Busch’s wife Samantha trolls the NASCAR driver with savage ‘inches’ jab on social media after race in Atlanta

Samantha Busch, the wife of NASCAR driver Kyle Busch, insulted her husband on social media after a dramatic ending at Atlanta Motor Speedway last weekend.

Taking to Instagram on Sunday, the 38-year-old two-time Cup Series champion shared his thoughts on the exciting final stretch of Sunday’s race in Georgia, where he was part of a three-way photo finish to finish third behind Ryan. Blaney and winner Daniel Suarez.

‘You can’t get much closer. I needed a few inches,” Busch wrote as the caption to his latest post on Instagram. “Fast @cheddarskitchen – @teamchevy car today, excited about the strength we showed to start the year.”

As the thousands of likes rolled in, Samantha, who has been married to Busch since 2010, delivered the unexpected by roasting her husband in the comments section.

“I’ve been telling you that for almost 20 years,” she wrote alongside a goofy emoji.

Samantha’s choice of words genuinely shocked some of Busch’s followers, as they hinted in their own comments that they were appalled by what she had written.

‘@samanthabusch yooo. Wild!!! Lmao,” someone said in disbelief.

“Ain’t no wayyyy,” said another, while a third user shared that “there’s no way she said that.”

Suarez, 32, beat Blaney, 30, by 0.003 seconds and Busch by 0.007. It was his second victory in the NASCAR Cup Series.

“It’s good to see Daniel win,” Busch said Sunday. “We helped each other as Chevy team partners and worked together there.

“It shows that if you have friends and you can make alliances, they do seem to work, and that was a big part of today.”

Kyle and Samantha shared two children: a seven-year-old son, Brexton, and a girl, Lennix

Samantha, who shares two children: a seven-year-old son, Brexton, and a daughter, Lennix with Busch, also reflected on her husband’s third-place finish after a tense conclusion.

“Well, damn, that was close! Proud of this team, they have had strong cars these past weekends, let’s continue this momentum into Vegas,” she wrote on Instagram.

The next NASCAR Cup Series race takes place on Sunday, March 3 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
