Jimmie Johnson Disqualified After Coca-Cola 600
5 years agoHendrick Motorsports driver Jimmie Johnson's second-place finish in Sunday's Coca-Cola 600 was disqualified for failing post-race inspection, specifically due to an issue with the car's rear alignment. For NASCAR's purposes, Johnson is now scored as finishing 40th and receives no points. Different DFS providers have different rules for how to handle disqualification, but it seems that at least for now, Johnson is being credited with a second-place finish, and DraftKings has already said that they won't be changing the scoring due to the issue. Johnson also starts 40th now in Wednesday's Cup race at Charlotte, making him an intriguing option due to the potential for a big day in place differential.
