Legacy Motor Membership pit crew members John Rosselli and Kellen Mills have been suspended for the following two NASCAR Cup Sequence occasions. Rosselli is the entrance tire changer for Erik Jones’s No.43 Toyota, and Mills is the jackman.
The penalty stems from the suitable entrance wheel that got here off Jones’s automobile at Las Vegas Motor Speedway final weekend when he had simply returned to the monitor following a pitstop on lap 70.
Jones was held for 2 laps throughout Sunday’s occasion as per the penalty and was finally labeled twenty fifth. There’s an automated two-week suspension (along with the at-track penalty) when a wheel comes off a automobile.
Each crew members will probably be eligible to return to competitors for the season finale at Phoenix Raceway.
There have been no different Cup Sequence penalties from Sunday’s race. Nonetheless, there have been three Xfinity Sequence groups fined for lug nut infractions following Saturday’s race.
Jonathan Toney, crew chief for Cole Custer, was fined $5,000, as was Shane Whitbeck, the crew chief for Jeb Burton, and Kevin Johnson, the crew chief for Kyle Sieg.
