Gordon naar achteren voor de start:
Quote:
Winner of the second Gatorade Duel qualifying race Jeff Gordon has been sent to the back of the grid of the Daytona 500 after his car was found to be too low in the post-race techcnical inspection.
Despite the penalty imposed, the former Nextel Cup champion has been allowed to keep his victory from the Duel, as NASCAR officials believe the rule transgression was unintentional. A misaligned bolt on a shock caused the car to be lower than allowed by the rules.
There will be no penalty either for the No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports team, unlike five other crew chiefs whose cars failed technical inspections last weekend during qualifying.
