Nine NASCAR Cup teams fail inspection twice at Phoenix
Several NASCAR Cup Series teams failed pre-qualifying inspection on Saturday, and there have been penalties.
All teams passed on the third attempt, so none will have to serve a pass-through penalty during the race on Sunday.
The following teams failed inspection twice: The No. 8 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, the No. 15 Rick Ware Racing Ford, the No. 18 and No. 20 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyotas, the No. 38 Front Row Motorsports Ford, the No. 41 Stewart-Haas Racing Ford, the No. 42 and No. 32 Petty GMS Motorsports Chevrolets, and the No. 77 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet.
As a result, a crew member from each team will be ejected from the track and will lose pit selection.
Here is the list of which team member has been ejected, and their title:
No. 18 - Car Chief, Nate Bellows
No. 15 - Car Chief, Robert Valentinsen
No. 8 - Car Chief, David Alexander
No. 77 - Car Chief, JR Norris
No. 41 - Car Chief, Tony Cardamone
No. 20 - Car Chief, Chris Sherwood
No. 38 - Engineer, Troy Raker
No. 43 - Engineer, Danny Efland
No. 42 - Car Chief, Cam Strader
