Ten NASCAR Drivers We Love to Hate

As you know, the great sport of NASCAR is loaded with drivers of varying personalities and characteristics. Which inavability leads to controversy between the drivers both on and off the track. Sure it would be easier to be a NICE guy on the track and drive clean, but who wants to sit through a three hour long race with no action. So today our top ten list answers the question, "What NASCAR drivers do we love to hate the most"?

  1. Kyle Busch, who is currently NASCAR's number one bad boy and always will be, until he learns to respect other drivers and not drive carelessly.
  2. Kurt Busch, just like his brother wants to win no matter the cost, even if it involves taking out another driver in the process.
  3. Robby Gordon, is known in racing as one of the most versatile drivers, but is also one of NASCAR's most hated. You can see why after he booted the other Gordon for his first NASCAR win, was responsible for the creation of the "Lucky Dog" rule, and who could forget the black flag at Montreal.
  4. Denny Hamlin, made our list for blaming everybody in the Gibbs organization but himself when things don't seem to go his way.
  5. Kevin Harvick, has had a lot of anger management problems in the past, such as when he jumped over his car in Richmond to get at Matt Kenseth.
  6. Juan Pablo Montoya, not neccessarily hated, but made our list for ushering in the new wave of IRL drivers into NASCAR.
  7. Tony Stewart, made our list because he isn't afraid to tell it like it is, and that's why we love to hate him.
  8. Jeff Gordon, was seemingly perfect when he entered NASCAR and his success only made the fans boo even him more.Check Spelling
  9. Dale Earnhardt Sr, "The Intimidator", made being hated by the fans cool with the black car, the dark sunglasses, the tough guy attitude, and the cool nickname.
  10. Michael Waltrip, made the list for his appearance on the TV show "My Name Is Earl".
