NASCAR ejected five crew members from five NASCAR Cup Series teams Friday for failures in pre-practice/qualifying inspection at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
The ejections – along with the loss of pit selection – were a result of cars failing inspection twice.
The cars that failed tech were Kevin Harvick’s No. 4 Ford, Chase Elliott’s No. 9 Chevrolet, Harrison Burton’s No. 21 Ford, Todd Gilliland’s No. 38 Ford and Josh Bilicki’s No. 77 car.
The crew members who were ejected:
- Robert Smith, car chief for Harvick’s team
- Matt Barndt, car chief for Elliott’s team
- Cody Sauls, car chief for Burton’s team
- Tony Manzer, car chief for Gilliland’s team
- Nicholas Sowa, engineer for Bilicki’s team
Practice and qualifying for Sunday’s Pennzoil 400 begins today at 1:30 p.m. ET on Fox Sports 2 before moving to Fox Sports 1 at 2 p.m. ET
