Following the incident at Las Vegas Motor Speedway where Ty Gibbs’s Toyota lost its right front wheel, NASCAR has suspended two crew members from the Joe Gibbs Racing No. 54 team. Braxton Brannon (jackman) and Jackson Gibbs (front tire changer) will be suspended for the upcoming races at Homestead-Miami Speedway (Oct. 22) and Martinsville Speedway (Oct. 29). NASCAR has an automatic two-race suspension policy for the loss of a wheel during a race. Ty Gibbs experienced a blown right front tire and hit the wall off Turn 2 on lap 217 of the South Point 400. As he was limping down the backstretch, the wheel completely detached from the car. Gibbs received a two-lap penalty upon returning to pit road, and the crew member suspensions are an additional part of the penalty. In the Las Vegas race, Gibbs finished in 34th place.
