We all know where NASCAR can stick their Rule Book. I hate it for the 4 team and NASCAR shafted them last year when his car caught on fire. Can't wait until Kevin is in the Broadcast Booth next year.

Loose bolts? Was it inspected during the race or after the checkered flag? Im sure there are plenty of cars with loose bolts after all those crashes incl the one at the end. All of it sounds very petty and kinda fishy.

I love how Letarte and Burton critique others in the sport who have far more wins and championships. Can't wait for Fox to return.

I think there's a bunch of loose nuts running NASCAR

[BooBahh-uhjk]

Lol 😂 locktitght would have been more helpful over silicone

[namelessfred]

Just interested in this conspiracy and want to here more proof or pushback since i keep seeing it: If Kyle Larson finished 2nd and had this happen would he have been dq'd? idk i want to say ofcourse but some people have been compelling and i gotta admit, something seems fishy about their decisions lately i mean Hendrick is the only team to win an appeal in the next gen era, thats says something to me.

I'd like to know if any other cars had the same issue. If none did, then too bad for the 4 team. If other non-SHR cars had the same issue, and the teams are using NASCAR mandated parts and procedures, then shame on NASCAR. My guess is that no other team experienced the same issue or NASCAR wouldn't have penalized Harvick.

[mostlyinterested]

I wonder, if it was a Hendrick Motorsports car, whether Letarte would be singing the same tune.

[joe]

You put silicone as stated on a machine thread and it won't vibrate out. No one else's seemed to fall out. Odd.

[markscheffe]

Why don’t they have brake lights on these car’s?

[fido]

If that had been an HMS car it would been ignored. Hocevar said he screwed up. Everyone pushes, why single Brad out? Lots of selective finger pointing here.

[drumminsonlive]

I don’t blame Childress for trying. Brad ain’t never spun nobody out…
