NASCAR XFINITY Series crew chief for the No. 22 team, Brian Wilson, was fined $7,500 by NASCAR for failing the post-race Laser Inspection Station measurements following Saturday’s Menard’s 250 presented by Valvoline at Michigan International Speedway.
The No. 22 Team Penske Ford, which was driven by Joey Logano this past weekend, was also assessed with the loss of 10 championship owner points. This is a P2 penalty (Sections 12-1; 20.17.3.1.2).
A penalty and a warning also came down in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series on Wednesday for the Nos. 11 and 23 teams after their standalone event last Friday at Texas Motor Speedway.
Scott Zipadelli, crew chief for the No. 11, was fined $5,000, suspended from all NASCAR Series Championship points events through June 22 and placed on NASCAR probation through Dec. 31 for not having the truck’s lug nuts properly installed. This is a P3 penalty (Sections 12-1; 10.11.3.4 a).
The No. 23 team, piloted by Spencer Gallagher, received its second written warning of the season for the truck trailing arm U-bolts and U-bolt mounting saddles not conforming to specified rule book drawings in pre-qualifying inspection.
