Appeals panel rescinds penalty against 3 Hendrick drivers

A NASCAR appeals panel rescinded the hefty points penalties levied against Hendrick Motorsports drivers Alex Bowman, William Byron and Kyle Larson for an illegally modified part on their Chevrolets discovered earlier this month. It was only a partial victory for Hendrick Motorsports, though: although the three-person panel restored 100 points to each of the three drivers following Wednesday's hearing, it upheld fines and suspensions for four Hendrick crew chiefs. NASCAR initially hammered Hendrick Motorsports with the largest combined penalties for a single organization in series history.

Although NASCAR has issued larger monetary fines and suspensions, the Hendrick penalties are the largest combined punishment for one organization.
