Cindric punished by Nascar to hang Ty Dillon in Cota. Team Penske driver avoids suspension

Associated Press

Charlotte, NC (AP) -NASCAR Austin Cindric punished 50 points and took him on Wednesday with 50,000 US dollars because he deliberately turned Ty Dillon on the tour of America last weekend.

Dillon moved the route at the beginning of the race and Cindric quickly returned by turning Dillon in the right rear hazite and dillons car.

Nascar has made it clear that the drivers who have had competitors behind them do not tolerate them to turn them due to the potential dangers. Bubba Wallace and Chase Elliott were previously suspended for similar actions.

The penalty falls from Team Penske from 11 to 35.

Nascar punishes Carson Hocevar $ 50,000 and punished him 25 points last year to deliberately dismantle Harrison Burton. Hocevar put Burton on the right rear and waited in the caution in Nashville Superspeedway.

One of the reasons why Cindric was not suspended according to a Nascar official is that it took place on a street course with lower speeds and narrow borders – and the result did not draw any precaution.

Wallace and Elliott have hooked both other drivers on ovals with higher speeds that led to precautionary measures.

In additional punishments that were announced on Wednesday, Nascar said two members of Kyle Larsons Pit -Crew were suspended two races for a tire that came out of his car last weekend. Brandon Johnson, the Jackman and the front of the front tire Blaine Anderson were both suspended.
