All clear in Watkins Glen post-race inspection

The race-winning No. 9 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet has passed post-race inspection at Watkins Glen International with no issues, confirming Chase Ellott’s second victory of the season in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series.

The No. 9 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet was found to be compliant with the 2019 NASCAR Rule Book after Sunday’s GoBowling at The Glen. Only issue reported from post-race lug-nut check was one lug nut missing on the 26th-place No. 96 Gaunt Brothers Racing Toyota of Parker Kligerman.

With the post-race teardown complete, the race results are official. Competition officials are not taking any cars back to the NASCAR Research & Development Center in Concord, North Carolina, this week for further evaluation.
