As quoted by USAToday.com, Jeff Gordon said:“It depends on the situation. If I feel like I was completely at fault and made a really bad decision and I have the opportunity to go over there and say I messed up then I would. If I didn’t have the opportunity I’d probably call or text them if I had their number. Otherwise I’d let it kind of settle down a little bit and go see them in person the next week.”Jeff Gordon retired with 93 wins, 325 top fives, 475 top tens, and 81 poles in 797 starts.
