Ive always respected Jeff for standing his ground, said Rick Hendrick, owner of Hendrick Motorsports. We also respect that NASCAR needs to police the sport and send a message when situations like this occur. Its been a great year, and were going to put our focus on finishing in a positive way this weekend.
I take responsibility for my actions on the racetrack, Gordon said. I accept NASCARs decision and look forward to ending the season on a high note at Homestead.
