RFK Racing has revealed the root cause of Ryan Preece’s disqualification from the NASC🧜AR Cup Series race at Talladega on Sunday.

Preece had originally secured his best career result in the Cup Series after finishiꦬng second on the road at Talladega Superspeedway, just 0.022s behind race winner Austin Cindric of Team Penske.

However, the #60 RFK Racing Ford Mustang was 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:excluded from the results after post-race technical che🔯cks revealed the use of for using unapp𒈔roved shims in the rear spoiler area.

RFK Racing has now explained that the DSQ wဣas caused by an “unintentional” pre-race adjustment to the car to correct a⛎ spoiler angle.

The team maintains that it did not gain a competitive advantage because of the modification and is committed to “adhering” to NASCAR’s standards.
 
“RFK Racing acknowledges and a♚ccepts NASCAR's decision to disqualify ✅the No. 60 Ford Mustang following post-race inspection at Talladega and will not appeal the ruling,” it said in a statement.

"The infraction stemmed from an unintentional adjustment during pre-race inspection to correct a spoiler angle issue. While the change did not provide a competitive advantage, it did not meet the approved compliance method. We respect the ruliꦬng and remain committed to integrity and adherence to NASCAR's standards."

Preece was relegated 🃏to 38th place in the 3🍒9-car field following the disqualification. The points lost have dealt him a hefty blow in the championship standings, dropping him from 14th to 19th place.

Pen🌄ske driver ﷽Joey Logano, who took the chequered flag in fifth place, was also thrown out of the results for a spoiler infringement.

In his case, Penske revealed that “one of the 18 bolts on the surface of the spoiler that con🐷nect to the base was found to be loose.”

Like RFK, Penske has decided not 🌊to appeal against the disqualification.

Logano has slipped from 10th to 13th on the leaderboard after Talladega, but he remains in the hꦦunt for a playo⭕ff spot.
