NASCAR issued written warnings to three NASCAR Sprint Cup Series teams on Wednesday, including the Joe Gibbs Racing No. 11 of Chase contender Denny Hamlin.
The JGR No. 11 Toyota failed template inspection twice before last Friday’s qualifying at Martinsville Speedway. That brings the team’s current tally of warnings to three.
The NASCAR competition department also handed out warnings to the Roush Fenway Racing No. 6 Ford team of driver Trevor Bayne and the BK Racing No. 93 Toyota of Matt DiBenedetto after the Goody’s Fast Relief 500 weekend.
The Roush Fenway No. 6 failed the Laser Inspection Station (LIS) twice in pre-race inspection, raising its current warning count to three. The BK Racing No. 93 absorbed its first warning by failing LIS three times before Friday’s Coors Light Pole Qualifying.
