In response, NASCAR has officially announced an immediate investigation, confirming that the sport’s integrity is now at stake in what many are calling the biggest scandal in recent NASCAR history.

“We take these allegations seriously,” stated a NASCAR representative. “No driver or team is beyond scrutiny when the fairness of competition is questioned.”
