Well, Hocevar is 6-foot-4 inches tall. And, yes, he's one of the tallest drivers in NASCAR Cup Series history. Truth be told, this looks to be the "Tall Driver Era" for NASCAR at the Cup Series level. Four current drivers on the Cup grid—Hocevar, Austin Cindric, Todd Gilliland and Zane Smith—check in at 6-2 or better..

Ryan Blaney and Ross Chastain both approached Hocevar on pit road post-race. Hocevar had made contact with Blaney to send him spinning earlier in the final stage, and the driver of the No. 12 Ford worked his way back to a fourth-place finish.

Carson Hocevar's aggressive moves at Atlanta might have earned him a second-place finish, but they didn't earn him any new friends.
