NASCAR recently announced a reversal of the disqualification of Ryan Blaney from the NASCAR Cup Series race at Texas Motor Speedway. The disqualification was due to a flawed template used in the post-race inspection process.
The disqualification of Blaney came after he was found to have violated NASCAR’s rulebook by having an illegal rear wheel camber. The violation was discovered during the post-race inspection process, and Blaney was disqualified from the race.
However, NASCAR has since announced that the disqualification was due to a flawed template used in the inspection process. The template was found to be inaccurate and therefore did not accurately measure the rear wheel camber. As a result, NASCAR has reversed the disqualification and Blaney has been reinstated as the official winner of the race.
This is not the first time that NASCAR has reversed a disqualification due to a flawed template. In 2017, Kyle Larson was disqualified from a race at Dover International Speedway due to a similar issue. In that case, NASCAR also reversed the disqualification and reinstated Larson as the official winner.
The reversal of Blaney’s disqualification is a welcome move by NASCAR, as it shows that the organization is willing to take corrective action when mistakes are made. It also serves as a reminder that NASCAR is committed to ensuring fair and accurate results in all of its races.
