Stewart-Haas won’t appeal Harvick’s Talladega penalty
Stewart-Haas Racing has announced that they will not appeal the disqualification of Kevin Harvick’s No. 4 Ford Mustang from the race at Talladega Superspeedway. The team admitted that not all of their windshield fasteners were secure after bolts holding it in place backed out during the 500-mile race. They are currently investigating why this happened and how to prevent it in the future. Despite their disappointment with NASCAR’s decision, they are shifting their focus to the remaining races on this year’s schedule. Harvick finished second in the race to Ryan Blaney by a mere .012 seconds, with the two drivers racing side-by-side to the finish line. NASCAR discovered the violation during post-race inspection, citing infractions in the windshield and overall assembled vehicle rules. These rules require all windshield fasteners to remain secure throughout the entire event.
