NASCAR issued its first post-race penalties of the season on Tuesday, March 3 after the COTA race. Two members of Trackhouse Racing\u2019s pit crew for the No. 1 Chevrolet (pictured) have been suspended through the next two NASCAR Cup Series races, NASCAR officials announced Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Rear-tire changer Kenneth Pozega and jackman Josh Appleby will be sidelined after the No. 1 car, driven by Ross Chastain, had its right-rear tire detach from the vehicle on the race track on Lap 75 under green-flag conditions.<\/p>\n
The penalties come under Sections 8.8.10.4 A&D in the NASCAR Rule Book, which states in part that a \u201clost tire beyond pit road will result in [a] two race suspension for two pit crew members [and] a two-lap penalty.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NASCAR issued its first post-race penalties of the season on Tuesday, March 3 after the COTA race.
