NASCAR announced today that Jimmie Johnson's crew chief Chad Knaus has been suspended for three more races and fined $25000 for rule infractions detected after last week's qualifying sessions for the Daytona 500. Strangely enough, there were no points deducted.
Meanwhile, NASCAR has fined Terry Labonte's crew chief Philippe Lopez for an unapproved carburetor discovered after last week's qualifying. They have also penalized Terry Labonte 25 driver points and Hall Of Fame Racing (Troy Aikman & Roger Staubach) 25 owners points. HOF Racing says they will appeal these penalties. They get their engines from Joe Gibbs Racing and this apparently was some sort of supplier error. JD Gibbs has said he will help them with the appeal.
