Richard Childress Racing's Austin Dillon looked to be well on his way to his first NASCAR Cup Series win since August 2022 and thus a 2024 playoff berth on Sunday night at Richmond Raceway before JTG Daugherty Racing's Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Stewart-Haas Racing's Ryan Preece made contact on lap 399 of 400.

Joey Loganowas two turns away from his second win of the 2024 NASCAR season but ended up finishing in 19th place after Austin Dillon wrecked him in Turn 3. Following the event, Logano called out Dillon for his actions on the race track; however, it wasn’t before the No. 22 car spun the tires close to several people on pit road.
NASCAR will review everything that occurred on the final lap and pit road after the race at Richmond. Logano showed his displeasure by stopping near the No. 3 crew and several others, including NASCAR officials, and spun his tires as he left the scene. Based on previous precedent, it would not be surprising to see a fine for Logano’s actions.
Daniel Suarez and Bubba Wallace have been fined $50,000 for safety violations since the start of 2023, which would likely be the outcome for Logano. The driver of the No. 22 car was rightfully frustrated with Dillon, but his actions on the pit road put him in line for a possible penalty. Thankfully for Logano, it would likely be nothing more than a fine.
