NASCAR has issued several penalties following recent races. Sam Mayer and the No. 1 JR Motorsports team received an L1-level penalty, resulting in a 10-point deduction for Mayer and a $10,000 fine and one-race suspension for crew chief Mardy Lindley. This penalty was due to a violation involving the re-certification of a chassis that had undergone major repair. Additionally, the Nos. 2 and 88 truck teams will each lose a crew member at North Wilkesboro for violations related to protective clothing and equipment. Other penalties included John Hunter Nemechek, Ryan Ellis, and Chandler Smith for pitting on a closed pit road, Joey Logano for speeding on pit road during the Goodyear 400, and Tyler Reddick for a commitment line violation.
