NASCAR has penalized
the No. 2 team in the NASCAR Nationwide Series as a result of rule infractions
discovered during post-race inspection Sunday at Iowa Speedway.
The No. 2 Richard
Childress Racing Chevrolet driven by Elliott Sadler was found to be in
violation of Sections 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing); 12-4J
(any determination by NASCAR officials that race equipment used in the event
does not conform to NASCAR rules); and 20A-12.8.1C (body height requirements –
car failed to meet the minimum rear car heights) of the 2012 NASCAR rule book.
As a result, crew chief
Luke Lambert has been fined $10,000, while owner DeLana Harvick and driver
Elliott Sadler have been penalized with the loss of six championship owner and
six championship driver points, respectively.
Isn't Luke Lambert on probation for violations at Dega? Why only the fine for him?
ReplyDeleteThe No. 2 team was found with infractions at Richmond and Lambert was placed on probation til Dec. 31st. Shouldn't the results be a little more harsh?
