23XI Racing has chosen not to appeal NASCAR’s penalty for their involvement in manipulating the race at Martinsville Speedway. The team disagrees with the ruling but is focusing on the championship and not pursuing an appeal. NASCAR penalized 23XI Racing with point deductions, fines, and suspensions for crew chief Bootie Barker and spotter Freddie Kraft. Kraft provided updates to Bubba Wallace during the race without giving specific instructions. Wallace slowed down towards the end of the race, which affected the outcome for playoff contenders.

Tyler Reddick will represent 23XI Racing in the Cup Series championship, while appeals from Trackhouse Racing and Richard Childress Racing are scheduled for Thursday.
