Josef Newgarden put on a dominant display at the Hy-Vee Homefront 250 on Saturday afternoon, winning the first race of the event and even criticizing drivers for getting in his way, but it was his crew members who created a viral moment by borrowing Kirk Cousins' catchphrase.

The clip happened shortly after Newgarden had crossed the finish line. The 32-year-old led 129 of 250 laps in the race and was taking his victory lap heading into pit road when his crew members began congratulating each other over the radio.

"Hey, you like that?" One crew member asked.

"YOU LIKE THAT!" Another crew member replied, channeling his inner Kirk Cousins.

Cousins famously coined the catchphrase while playing for Washington in October 2015, leaving the field after a comeback win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers by screaming "You like that! You like that!"

It's not quite a 33-point comeback against the Indianapolis Colts but Newgarden and his crew were definitely on a Kirk Cousins vibe on Sunday afternoon.
