On Sunday NASCAR released a statement that they will not be penalizing Noah Gragson following his actions on pit road during Saturday's XFINITY event when he backed into Daniel Hemric's No. 18 Toyota on pit road during a live pit stop.
The Winamac, Indiana, native dodged a last lap accident involving his two Kaulig Racing teammates to collect his second Xfinity victory of the season/career at Daytona.
The Mitchell, Indiana, native reignited his season-long momentum by claiming his sixth victory of the season following an Xfinity doubleheader at the Monster Mile.
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Daniel Hemric captured the pole for Sunday's Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway with a time of 30.32 and 178.047 mph. This was Hemric's first career Cup Series pole.
“The game plan, he said, "from a professional side, has still been the same. The goals you set out to accomplish in February, and really dating back three years ago with RCR, those all stay the same."
It was announced by NASCAR after the Monster Energy Cup Series qualifying that the times of the Richard Childress Racing's No. 3 of Austin Dillon and the No. 8 of Daniel Hemric were disallowed due to having unapproved alternators.
