NASCAR fines Carson Hocevar $50,000 for endangering safety officials at Kansas Speedway

Carson Hocevar was fined $50,000 for revving his engine near safety workers after a spin, marking his third $50,000 fine this season, NASCAR said.

  • Carson Hocevar was penalized $50,000 by NASCAR for endangering safety personnel during the Cup Series event at Kansas Speedway.
  • Hocevar was penalized after he accelerated and caused his tires to spin while track safety personnel were working on his vehicle following a late-race spin on the backstretch.
  • Hocevar was involved in several late-race incidents including spinning during an 11-car crash, running into J.J. Yeley, and a final spin caused by contact from another driver.
  • He radioed his team about having four flat tires and said he "can't f****** roll," while finishing 29th in the race.
  • This fine adds to an earlier $50,000 internal team penalty for derogatory comments about Mexico City, showing NASCAR and Spire Motorsports' strict stance on safety and conduct.
