NASCAR imposes harsh penalties on Hendrick and Kaulig teams.

NASCAR issued severe penalties to Hendrick Motorsports and driver Denny Hamlin for infractions during last weekend's events at Phoenix Raceway. Meanwhile, the upcoming NASCAR Cup Series race at Atlanta Motor Speedway will feature top drivers William Byron, Ross Chastain, Daniel Suarez, Kevin Harvick, Brad Keselowski, and Kyle Busch. Additionally, the Nashville Fair Board Commissioners approved an agreement with Bristol Motor Speedway to operate Fairgrounds Speedway, bringing the prospect of NASCAR racing at the historic track closer to reality.
