Update: Robby Gordon, NASCAR had received a similar punishment for a "false" front of his Dodge can breathe again. Once Dodge had made it clear that a) the fault lay with them and b) the supplied front in the last year ever with the permission of NASCAR was traveling, it annulled the sentences again. Of particular importance for Gordon: He gets his 100 owner points again to bring him safely into the top 35th
The oil cap, Carl Edwards has lost at some point during the last race is an expensive affair. Although he may retain his victory in Las Vegas, but that's about it. In some it looks like this
- He loses 100 championship points, which throws it back on the championship leader to 7th place.
- He lost the 10 bonus points he received for winning in Las Vegas. Which he will not be counted in the Chase.
- The team loses 100 points in the team championship
- The crew chief for Carl Edwards, Bob Osborne will be suspended for six races
- In addition, Osborne, a penalty in the amount of $ 100,000.
That is steep. For an oil lid, the loss of at most brings a few degrees in the oil temperature. But NASCAR is known for such penalties to the cheating to some extent to keep under control. You mean to say: "Look what we do when we find little things. Think about what will happen if we find what is really lousy. "Roush will address the judgment, but chances are that it is moderated is conceivable small. It has left too much time with the punishment. Normally, you announce something on Tuesday and not on a Wednesday.

Slightly OT :-)
MS degree reading on the total team cooperation in the IRL (CC IRL teams have a team as a "jump start"). I find that utterly amazing by the way. Anscheind want to draw the best and now shy away from any unconventional means.
Partner teams:
First - Andretti Green Racing and Dale Coyne Racing
Second - Target Chip Ganassi Racing and KV Racing
Third - Rahal Letterman Racing and Newman / Haas / Lanigan Racing
4th - Vision Racing and Conquest Racing
5th - AJ Foyt Racing and Pacific Coast Motorsports
6th - Penske Racing and Walker
7th - Roth Racing, and Minardi Team USA
Now I have fixed times counted in the head. This would result even 28 cars! In this respect all go with 2 cars, as I believe anyway. Or single-driver teams are known?
Could really be an exciting season.
Do not forget, Andretti Green Racing cars is already 4 Kanaan.Denkbar one for Danica Patrick, Marco Andretti, Hideki Mutoh and Tony, the one dividing the two applications and starts (at best puzzle game :) sinds 30 cars, but I think the teams that are going to be in only one CC, the IndyCar Series in the machen.Denkbar are probably 25 cars out of the Indy 500 ...
25? how to get to there on it? The starting field at last year's IRL race already fluctuated from normal 20 to 22 vehicles. Even if every Champcarteam would use only one vehicle (which is not the case) while combing a starter box out of at least 27 vehicles.
