No. 22 car passes post-race inspection after Las Vegas-1 victory

The No. 22 Team Penske Ford of Joey Logano has passed post-race technical inspection Sunday after winning the Pennzoil 400 presented by Jiffy Lube at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Logano's race-winning car was found to be compliant with the NASCAR Rule Book after the 267-lap event at the 1.5-mile track. RELATED: Official Las Vegas results Kyle Larson's No. 42 Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet had one lug nut not safe and secure, violating the post-race lug-nut policy. With post-race teardown complete, the race results are official. This is the second year of a post-race process to bring a more timely approach to inspection for all three NASCAR national series. Competition officials announced last February thorough post-race inspections would take place shortly after the checkered flag at the track instead of midweek at the Research & Development Center. Those inspections come with a stiffer deterrence structure that includes disqualification for significant rules infractions -- "a total culture change," said Steve O’Donnell, NASCAR Executive Vice President and Chief Racing Development Officer. Prior to the 2019 season, race-winning teams found in violation of the rules were penalized with post-race fines, points deductions and/or suspensions, but victories were allowed to stand. NASCAR will still inspect cars and parts at the R&D Center as needed, but the more comprehensive at-track inspection will take priority.
