Officials now reserve the right to issue a time penalty for any move deemed to be unsafe.
The series released multiple procedural changes Tuesday morning. Among them, officials now have the option of invoking a time penalty for any vehicle deemed using a similar strategy to that of Ross Chastain’s “Hail Melon” move at Martinsville Speedway.
"Therefore, any violations deemed to compromise the safety of an Event or otherwise pose a dangerous risk to the safety of Competitors, Officials, spectators, or others are treated with the highest degree of seriousness. Safety violations will be handled on a case-by-case basis.”Other procedural updates for 2023 include:
• Detached wheels during races will no longer call for a four-race crew chief suspension. In the event a wheel becomes unattached but stays on pit road, the offending car will be subject to a pass-through penalty. If it occurs under caution, the car will restart at the rear of the field. If the tire does not stay on pit road, it calls for a two-lap penalty and two-race suspension for two crew members.• Competition officials have also expanded the list of tracks for wet-weather equipment.
• The restart zone for the first five events of the season will be increased by 50% in length. Officials say they will assess the situation further after Atlanta.
