Joey Logano and Denny Hamlin scuffled on pit road at Martinsville Speedway after Sunday's race, following a late incident between the two drivers that put Logano into the wall.
The two drivers discussed the event, then Logano slapped Hamlin on the shoulder and began walking away. Hamlin started after Logano before being restrained by crewmen and NASCAR officials.

"We were having a discussion, everything was civil, and then like Joey does, he does a little push and runs away," Hamlin told NBCSN.
Both Hamlin and Logano were racing in the top five with 43 laps remaining when Hamlin pinched Logano into the wall. Logano had a tire go down and lost track position.
"I just wanted to talk to him about it, I was pretty frustrated," Logano said. "I just wanted to see what he had to say, and he wasn't apologetic at all, which was really frustrating.
"Maybe I shouldn't have shoved him at the end."
Logano finished eighth, while Hamlin ended up fourth.
