Listen to Kyle Busch sing ‘Cry Me a River’ after third season win

Kyle Busch is dominating in all three NASCAR national series this season and most notably earned his third win of 2018 Sunday at Bristol Motor Speedway.

He held off his younger brother, Kurt Busch, to take the checkered flag in the Food City 500, and for the second time this season, he found himself celebrating by singing over his in-car radio. His win at Auto Club Speedway in California in March — it was his second of the season — marked his 200th career victory across the Cup Series, XFINITY Series and Truck Series, and his immediate response was: “All I do is win!”

Following his win at Bristol — his eighth overall at the .533-mile track — he really showed off his musical talents. (He won just after the five-minute mark in the video.)

One of the first things he said over the radio after winning was:

“Ohhh, wahhh, wahhh, wahhh! Cry me a river! Eat that!

Good thing he’s a talented driver because his singing is something else.

When asked in his post-race press conference who the “Cry me a river” comment was directed at, Busch joked that he purposefully didn’t say who it was directed at. But when no one knew, maybe he should have.

At his press conference, Busch explained:

“Haters. Come on, really? …

“I was coming to the checkered flag, I was like, Cry Me a River. And I didn’t say the word ‘haters’ because I wanted to make it to where I didn’t have to say the word but apparently I had to say the word because nobody understood what the hell it meant.”
