For actually doing the right thing this time - Truex is OUT of the Chase and Newman is in - because of the blatant "cheating" at Richmond the other night. HUGE fines and penalties too.
WOW.

I have to say they do drop the hammer. Will there be an appeal like with Kennseth and them earlier this year? |

What about Gordon?? He got fucked in this whole thing as well. I would strip Bowyer as well and let him in or at least give him a 13th bonus spot. |

Newman better start blowing his pit crew because that was about as bad as it gets for throwing your team under the bus. |

NASCAR has issued penalties to Michael Waltrip Racing following the sanctioning body’s review of Saturday’s race at Richmond International Raceway. MWR was found to have violated Section 12-4 (Actions detrimental to stock car racing). As a result, MWR’s three teams in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series (No. 15, 55, 56) have been penalized with the loss of 50 championship driver and 50 championship owner points, respectively. These point penalties are assessed following the season’s 26th regular season race and not after the seeding for the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. Therefore, the point total for the No. 56 car driven by Martin Truex Jr. is reduced to 691, putting him in 17th position and eliminating him from the second Wild Card berth for the Chase field. Ryan Newman, driver of the No. 39 car, now moves up into the Chase as the second Wild Card participant. NASCAR has also fined the MWR organization $300,000 and indefinitely suspended Ty Norris, MWR Executive Vice President/General Manager and spotter for the No. 55 car, for violating Section 12-4. The three crew chiefs – Brian Pattie (No. 15), Scott Miller (No. 55) and Chad Johnston (No. 56) – have all been placed on NASCAR probation until Dec. 31. "Based upon our review of Saturday night’s race at Richmond, it is our determination that the MWR organization attempted to manipulate the outcome of the race," said Robin Pemberton, NASCAR vice president of competition. "As the sport’s sanctioning body, it is our responsibility to ensure there is a fair and level playing field for all of our competitors and this action today reflects our commitment to that." http://www.motorracingnetwork.com/Race- ... n-MWR.aspx |

We need NASCAR to step up and handle the way the Redskins are faking these leg cramps too. |

This opens a can of worms. Lots of teams '"manipulate" on a regular basis. |

The difference is this was SO blatant and SO beyond the realm of "fair" competition, they had to do something. I'm not a Newman fan by any means, but what happened Saturday night had me questioning whether I even wanted to be a NASCAR fan anymore. I'm glad NASCAR stepped up. The audio from Bowyer and Vickers cars were laughable and, frankly, pretty stupid on their part. |

I can't wait to see Gordon wreck Bowyer multiple times this chase. It was the best part of last years chase as well. |

I agree, spanky. Still, precedent on manipulation has been put on the table. Now the argument is degrees. |

I can't figure out how the driver who did the most blatant part of this is receiving essentially no penalty at all? |
