NASCAR's Josh Berry was furious after his car was denied race entry due to a crash, sparking debate over rule enforcement in the sport.

NASCAR parked Josh Berry for the remainder of Sunday’s Round of 12 opener at Kansas after he was involved in the Lap 1 accident. Berry, who had multiple flat tires after the multi-car wreck, was unable to drive his No.

NASCAR has a damaged vehicle policy and a flat tire policy and it was determined that this was the former and not the latter but the Stewart-Haas Racing No. 4 team disagreed. The car was involved in a crash, and it was not merely a spin, so by the letter of the rule, NASCAR’s determination was correct.
