After Sunday’s Cook Out 400 at Richmond Raceway, Joey Logano revved his engine in front of a gathering of spectators on pit road. This could result in penalties from NASCAR.
Tuesday is when NASCAR is anticipated to make any announcement regarding possible penalties following Sunday’s race; Bob Pockrass of FOX Sports thinks Logano will pay a punishment.
Naturally, Logano was first revving his engine for a purpose. The two-time Cup Series winner was not pleased with Austin Dillon for purposefully wrecking him on the last lap to grab the victory. Since then, on-car video of the incident has surfaced, showing Logano fighting with a NASCAR official.
We’ll take things slow since we don’t want to make a snap decision and regret it later. Thus, we want to be sure that we return, and we’ll examine all of the events from the final lap and the postrace to determine whether any penalties are required, Sawyer stated on Sunday.
Austin Dillon confronts Joey Logano for revving his engine in front of his wife and child on pit road. Dillon, who won the checkered flag after wrecking Logano and then Denny Hamlin right away, takes issue with Logano venting his resentment in front of his family on pit road.
On his “Happy Hour” podcast on Monday, Dillon said to Kevin Harvick, “The only thing that did piss me off about Joey was when he came through there, my wife and kid were heading across to get to cross, and he revved the engine up right in front of my kid and Johnny Morris and those people.” “I understand. You must feel furious and upset, but express yourself in an interview or in conversation with me. With that kind of situation, you have to exercise caution when on pit road.
Logano believed that he was justified in his anger. Dillon not only cost him the win, but he did it in a dubious way.
“No, three, four vehicle widths ahead in three when you get that far ahead. I said to myself, “I’ll just wrap the bottom here, I’m good,” without backing up the entry. And he just drives in so hard,” stated, according to Sportsnaut’s Matt Weaver. He hit me, therefore it goes without saying that he missed the turn, and the 11 was going to win the race. He did not intend to race, then. On the rematch, I defeated him handily, and he simply made a dumb play. He sucks and is a piece of junk. He has had a terrible career, so it’s probably good for him that he will be in the playoffs now.
