NASCAR adds strip of asphalt in turn 5 at Sonoma

A strip of asphalt has been added to the “Carousel” portion of Sonoma Raceway.

The asphalt has been added to the inside of Turn 5, a right-hand turn where cars got off into the dirt and sprayed debris back onto the track.

The strip is meant to keeps cars from getting off track and keeping the track clean.
