Pit Road Clash Erupts at NASCAR Sonoma Race

During the NASCAR Cup Series race at Sonoma Raceway, Ty Gibbs clipped Brad Keselowski’s pit area on Lap 52, making contact with Keselowski’s tire changer Telvin McClurkin and twisting his wrist. A brief physical altercation erupted between the pit crews but was quickly broken up by NASCAR officials. NASCAR reviewed the incident and ruled that Gibbs, as the lead car, was not at fault under pit road rules. Despite initial criticism, opinions on blame remained divided among fans and commentators. McClurkin was not seriously injured and continued his pit crew duties. Shane van Gisbergen won the race, with Gibbs finishing seventh and Keselowski eleventh.
