NASCAR 'CONTINUES TO GATHER ALL THE FACTS'

Radio communication between teams at center of latest drama

CHICAGO -- NASCAR has been alerted to another potential issue from Saturday night’s event at Richmond International Raceway, this time involving the teams of Joey Logano and David Gilliland -- but hasn’t yet seen enough evidence to hand out any penalties.

 

On Thursday, NASCAR issued the following statement: "NASCAR is continuing to gather all the facts from last Saturday night’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series event at Richmond International Raceway. NASCAR will have no further comment until all the facts have been examined."

The Associated Press on Wednesday reported radio communications between the No. 38 and No. 22 teams that it alleges may have helped Logano get into the
 Chase for the Sprint Cup. The Penske Racing driver passed two cars in the waning laps to earn the 10th and final playoff position based on the standings, by one point over Jeff Gordon.
