5 years agoToyota drivers Kyle Busch, Christopher Bell, and Denny Hamlin will now be starting from the rear of the field after all three drivers failed pre-race inspection. The nose of the car for all three drivers did not meet specifications and they each received an L1-level penalty, which includes point-deductions in both team and owner standings as well as an automatic start from the rear of the field. All three drivers will still be credited in DFS games this week from their original starting position. Busch and Hamlin were slated to start first and fourth before the penalty while Bell was originally supposed to start 22nd. All three drivers will have a difficult time regaining a large amount of Place Differential they lost from the penalty, but the race length is long enough that they have a fair chance of scoring it back by the later stages of this week's race.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller
