Ryan Blaney and the No. 12 Menards Team Penske team were disqualified from Sunday’s race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway due to a left-front shock infraction, violating section 14.11.3.5 of the NASCAR Rule Book. During post-race inspection, it was discovered that the left-front shock on Blaney’s Ford Mustang did not meet the specified length of 22.55 inches. As a result, Blaney is now ranked last in the finishing order, placing 36th and earning only one point from the event. Prior to the disqualification, Blaney had crossed the finish line in sixth place, making him the third-highest-finishing Cup Series playoff driver. Despite the setback, Blaney expressed satisfaction with their performance, stating that they ran consistently in the top five to eight positions. The team executed well, but they still aim to improve and contend for wins in future races. It is worth noting that no other issues were found during inspection.
