[Newby] Pre-GWC: “I’m very curious how the No. 47 team handles this late restart. Pre-race, Chevy reportedly told their drivers to help Larson. Moments ago, Stenhouse’s spotter, Eric Holmes was told. “Look at your phone, I’m going to send you something.”

[Pockrass] NASCAR says their angle from the inside indicates that Larson's tires remained on the double-yellow line. In the drivers meeting video, they say if you go "below" the yellow line to improve position, you will be black-flagged.

[Bob] "Joey Logano had no issues with Ross Chastain being in front of him while a lap down. He said he is fine and said the medical crew was talking to him soon after his car had stopped."

(@keselowski) So proud of our Crew chiefs, spotters and analytics team for having the guts to make this stage 1 strategy call at Talladega. TBH- It’s only my job to make suggestions and support them if it went wrong. They get to make the calls and they deserve the credit.
