NASCAR's 75th season is about to begin. Joe Gibbs Racing has a younger look and how did Kyle Busch get a 3½- year sentence to a Mexican prison?

Justin Haley was fastest at 67.099 mph in Saturday’s qualifying ahead of Sunday’s Clash at the Coliseum, where ‘it’s racing, but it’s so much more.’First answer, yes, it’s that Joe Gibbs, who won the Super Bowl three times as coach of Washington. That’s two times fewer than he’s won the NASCAR Cup series as an owner. A lot has changed since last year. Most importantly, two-time NASCAR champion Kyle Busch has left the team to join Richard Childress Racing.

NASCAR driver Ty Gibbs, who won the Xfinity Series title last season, is flocked by the media during NASCAR Championship media day in November.In short, not as far as NASCAR is concerned. The two-time NASCAR Cup champion was sentenced to 3 ½ years in a Mexican prison and fined $1,100 earlier this month for “carrying a firearm without a license and possession of cartridges for the exclusive use of the armed forces” while boarding a private plane in Cancun to return to the United States.

Busch was asked about the gun charge at NASCAR Media Day on Wednesday and he referred to his previous statement that it was resolved. He was questioned if an incident in August in which he and his family had been present at a shooting incident at the Mall of America in Minnesota played any role in him having a gun. He said he was a gun carrier before in jurisdictions that you are allowed it.Busch has 60 Cup wins, tying him with Kevin Harvick for the most victories by an active full-time driver.

NASCAR driver Martin Truex Jr. stands on his car and raises his arms in triumph after winning the Clash at the Coliseum on Feb. 5.
