NASCAR bans real-life wall-riding: 'We will penalize for that act going forward'

NASCAR says no more wall-riding.

NASCAR driver Ross Chastain caused quite a stir last year when he used real-life wall-riding—a trick he apparentlyin 2005—to move up five spots and set a lap record in the final turn of the Xfinity 500. It was a bold, foolhardy, and absolutely spectacular maneuver, and today NASCAR "Chastain's dash around Turns 3 and 4 at Martinsville Speedway last October made for an enthralling finish as the No.

Because of that, NASCAR said it doesn't need to make any new rules to put the brakes on future occurrences, it'll just start enforcing the ones that already exist—specifically, rule 10.5.2.6.A: And because real-life wall-riding is absolutely not safe, anyone who tries it in the future will be given a time penalty, which will undo any gains they might make.
