Zapping Autonews Electric cars: the novelties of the year 2022
When Hailie Deegan returned to the pits this weekend, during the Nascar race in Talladega, she had no idea that her mechanics were going to make the buzz!
How ? It’s quite simple. The mechanic in charge of the left rear wheel failed. After replacing the wheel, the old rubber slipped out of his hands.
Bad luck, the circuits of Talladega and Daytona are the only ones not to have separations between the pits and the track. As a result, the tire disappeared on the circuit, between the competitors!
Fortunately, he didn’t hit anyone and didn’t really disrupt the smooth running of the race. It just gave us a totally lunar moment when the mechanic in question went after him.
That was a bad idea. NASCAR pulled this Hailie Deegan crew member’s credential and escorted him from the track. pic.twitter.com/tQKwjgOspd
