Chase Briscoe and the No. 19 Joe Gibbs Racing team have been handed an L2-level penalty following Sunday’s Daytona 500 at Daytona (Fla.) Int’l Speedway.
After Briscoe’s No. 19 Toyota was inspected further at the NASCAR R&D Center in Concord, N.C., officials discovered modifications to the spoiler of the race car.
The spoiler is a single-source vendor supply part that cannot be modified. The team was found in violation of Section 14.1 in the NASCAR Rulebook, which pertains to overall assembled vehicles rules and 14.5.8, which deals with the spoiler.
Among the penalties was Briscoe being docked 100 driver points and 10 playoff points. JGR was fined $100,000 and docked 100 owner points. They were also deducted 10 playoff points.
Briscoe’s crew chief, James Small, was suspended for four races, beginning this weekend at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
