Darian grubb why was he fired

The main question folks are asking is Obviously there is more to the story where even after a championship run for the ages two sides couldn't reach an agreement to stay together. The internal workings at Stewart-Haas Racing almost cost them this championship—they are just lucky Darian Grubb was respectable enough to remain with the team.

A change in leadership at that point in the season would have meant a sure end for Stewart's title hopes. He brings a wealth of experience and knowledge and is a championship caliber crew chief—but so is Grubb. The puzzle is missing a piece. One thing is for sure—Darian Grubb will land somewhere and could possibly win another title.

JGR and Toyota are likely salivating at the prospect of hiring Grubb, who brings a wealth of knowledge from Chevrolet and knows everything Hendrick Motorsports is doing to its cars. Hamlin, too, is likely excited at having a fresh start and the opportunity to work with a proven championship crew chief.

He ultimately decided being on the pit box was the right place for him, with more to accomplish and prove as a crew chief.

Grubb was asked if it has been difficult not knowing who is going to fill the positions. Winning races is the way to do that. Who knows, maybe Stewart and Grubb will meet soon and Grubb will be able to stay with the team and defend their title. Perhaps Stewart will look in another direction and try to go back to back with a new crew chief. Either way, Grubb will not be out of work for long.
