With the win being taken away no way Hamlin let’s that be the payback for Chastain.

It has happened before.
Ricky Rudd got a win pulled in 1989 IIRC at Sonoma.
It wasn't a win being pulled but Mark Martin had 35 points pulled at Richmond in 1991 for an illegal manifold IIRC. Cost Martin the championship. Roush never forgave NASCAR for that.

Melt.
IDGAF about Denny, Kyle, or Chase - but this is bad. Very bad.

5 races, 5 top 2's, 3 wins...this is your reigning points champion and soon-to-be regular season champ!!!

Nah, that's not it. Boring arse racing and the stupid chase format that couldn't have been more catered to JJ tracks did that. In combination with guys retiring and after losing Dale of course.
It's a tough spot. How do you not DQ them when they modified something they shouldn't?
Posted on 7/24/22 at 8:04 pm to Horsemeat
I shouldn't of said you were melting.
But if you mess w/the body of a car to get an aero advantage that's always a no-no. And to be fair, it's been a long time since a winner has been DQ'd. It doesn't happen often. And Denny failed pre-race tech a couple of times.
Here is the NASCAR head of Tech Brad Moran talking about what happened. It involved the front fascia.
Explanation of Denny and Rowdy's DQ...

He is trending to win his 2nd title in 3 years.

Could you imagine if this happened in the championship race? Like damn.

And no offense, but the general public doesn't know shite. They don't know the difference between a template and a restrictor plate. Let alone a front fascia.
So frick what the general public thinks in this situation.

They don't do pre-race tech anymore. Only during qualifying, and Denny failed twice FWIW.

I was not aware that had changed too.

Big Bill specifically said he didn't want people finding out who won the race in the paper the next day.
Either way, the local Nascar fluffer will support whatever they do while the series goes in the toilet.
eta-Saying that, it couldn't happen to a better team. Holy Roller Gibbs getting two cars DQ'd for cheating is beautiful.

Wait wtf happened to Denny?
Posted on 7/24/22 at 8:22 pm to BuckyCheese
Well well now. Got caught. Everyone stretches rules but the trick is don’t get caught. At least Hamlins daughter got the victory flag and a ride that was cool.

Taking both cars back to HQ for more inspection as well. Remember early year when Toyota was really bad? I bet nascar does too and knowing the new car has tighter tolerences its hard to find so much speed compared to prior car. Nascar said this new gen would not have leeway given like last one. Look at Brad K, if they don’t get more deductions then he got jobbed.
Everything nascar has said is it was “front and aero”. Here’s the interview but since it can be appealed Nascar can only say so much:

Yeah they started in 2020 during COVID and it stuck.

Rumor is that it was the front fascia
Posted on 7/24/22 at 8:39 pm to UncleFestersLegs
hahaha of course, I had Hamlin today. W T F? I had Leclerc earlier today. I don't even know what to say.

NASCAR says the issues weren't found in prerace tech because they don't take the wrap off during prerace tech. Taking the wrap off in certain places is part of postrace tech.

I watched practice or qualifying on and at some point someone said that JGR was excited about this weekend because they found something…#Nascar found it too…
——
Extra material on the front fascia that was hidden under the wrap which is why it wasn’t discovered in prerace inspections as they can’t remove the wrap before the race.
