It\u2019s almost in a class with the fast one <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/tag\/nascar\/\">NASCAR<\/a> tried pulling on Tuesday with its truckload of changes to the rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By and large, everything NASCAR announced was a step in the right direction. But the decision to wait three months to address Chastain\u2019s maneuver feels calculated to minimize blowback from fans looking forward to seeing other drivers try it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-package-of-other-nascar-rule-changes-is-strong\"><strong>The package of other NASCAR rule changes is strong<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1015\" src=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ross-Chastain.jpg?w=925&#038;strip=all&#038;quality=89\" alt=\"Ross Chastain runs along the wall through Turn 4 on the final lap of the NASCAR Cup Series playoff race at Martinsville on Oct. 30, 2022. | Jeff Robinson\/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images\" class=\"wp-image-1548565\" \/><figcaption>Ross Chastain runs along the wall through Turn 4 on the final lap of the NASCAR Cup Series playoff race at Martinsville on Oct. 30, 2022. | Jeff Robinson\/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s hard to recall the last time NASCAR announced as many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nascar.com\/news-media\/2023\/01\/31\/nascar-announces-rules-modifications-for-2023-season\/\">changes to non-technical rules<\/a> as it did on Tuesday. The timing \u2013five days before the Busch Light Clash \u2013 made it that much more impactful since fans are fired up about the impending start of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the biggest changes are adjustments to the penalties for wheels coming loose following pit stops, the termination of stage breaks for most races on road courses across the three national series, and nailing down the specifics on which tracks can conduct wet-weather racing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All constitute wins for fans. Applying the choose rule to superspeedways and nuking the top-30 rule for playoff eligibility can\u2019t be considered earth-shattering, but both are understandable as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ross Chastain\u2019s \u2018Hail Melon\u2019 has been formally banned<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">NASCAR says this will never happen again &amp; makes it an illegal move \u2b07\ufe0f <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RossChastain?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RossChastain<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MartinsvilleSwy?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@MartinsvilleSwy<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/hM1MLDgCkX\">pic.twitter.com\/hM1MLDgCkX<\/a><\/p>&mdash; SpeedFreaks (@SpeedFreaks) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SpeedFreaks\/status\/1620494605648269313?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 31, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite NASCAR\u2019s best effort to the contrary, the change to the rule inspired by Ross Chastain\u2019s wild finish at Martinsville, which propelled him into the following week\u2019s Championship 4, garnered the most attention on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chastain steered the No. 1 Chevy up against the outside wall on Turns 3 and 4 of the final lap and floored the gas, creating a slingshot effect that pushed him past multiple cars over the final 200 yards. Going forward, however, NASCAR will penalize drivers who attempt a similar move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Officials said the decision is in the interest of safety, and it\u2019s hard to dispute that there are potential hazards in doing what the first-year Trackhouse Racing driver did. Among them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Grinding against the SAFER barrier runs the risk of throwing debris onto the track.<\/li><li>The car itself could conceivably stuff itself into the barrier, jack-knife, and collect other cars in the wreck.<\/li><li>And, lest we forget, Chastain tapped the back of Brad Keselowski\u2019s Ford at the finish line. It wasn\u2019t strong enough to move Keselowski off his racing line, but it had the potential to knock him into other traffic.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>NASCAR let the issue of Ross Chastain\u2019s \u2018Hail Melon\u2019 fester<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">After further review\u2026<br><br>Team owner Justin Marks and Trackhouse Racing are preserving Ross Chastain\u2019s Martinsville car. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NASCAR?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NASCAR<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pxcI8SXzC8\">pic.twitter.com\/pxcI8SXzC8<\/a><\/p>&mdash; NASCAR on NBC (@NASCARonNBC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NASCARonNBC\/status\/1620843851672846345?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 1, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>By its own admission, NASCAR could have banned Ross Chastain\u2019s \u2018Hail Melon\u2019 move within days or even hours of it transpiring at Martinsville. In fact, NASCAR could have penalized Chastain on the spot, costing him his place in the <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/tag\/championship-4\/\">Championship 4<\/a>. Elton Sawyer said as much on Fox\u2019s <em>NASCAR Race Hub<\/em> on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt's not really new language,\u201d said Sawyer, NASCAR\u2019s senior VP of competition. \u201cIt\u2019s language that was in the rulebook. And if we see that and deem that as an unsafe maneuver that we would penalize, then that would be a time or lap penalty.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was referring to rule 10.5.2.6.A, which states, \u201cviolations deemed to compromise the safety of an Event or otherwise pose a dangerous risk to the safety of Competitors, Officials, spectators, or others are treated with the highest degree of seriousness. Safety violations will be handled on a case-by-case basis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NASCAR is clarifying its stance now because doing so in the week between Martinsville and the Championship 4 would have killed the buzz created by Chastain\u2019s audacious gamble. Waiting a few weeks or even a month wouldn\u2019t have sat well with Denny Hamlin and Joe Gibbs Racing, who were most affected by the drastic swing in points at the end of the race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, NASCAR waited until Tuesday, when it could lump the change that isn\u2019t really a change in with other adjustments to its rules. That was almost as clever as Chastain\u2019s maneuver itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Got a question or observation about racing? Sports7\u2019s John Moriello does a mailbag column each Friday.
