Overview
- NASCAR confirmed it took about 35 seconds to throw the caution following Cody Ware’s 93 mph impact at Turn 6 due to camera blind spots and minimal corner-worker radio reports.
- Managing director Brad Moran said the review will enhance trackside camera placement and refine corner-worker messaging to speed up race-control decisions.
- Drivers such as Shane van Gisbergen and Denny Hamlin have urged the introduction of G-force sensors that automatically flag high-impact crashes and alert officials.
- The series is exploring live streaming of onboard crash telemetry, which is currently stored on Next Gen cars and not accessible to race control during events.
- NASCAR will bolster staffing at its off-site production facility to improve monitoring of multiple camera feeds and reduce future response times.
