Wednesday's paper
In case you missed:
Dustin Long has a piece on NASCAR's penalties here.
Both Rick Hendrick and Richard Childress plan to appeal the suspensions of their respective crew chiefs, so it looks like all three will be working Sunday. Dustin confirmed that Childress engineer (and former Ricky Craven crew chief) Scott Miller would have subbed for Todd Berrier on Sunday at Atlanta. But we took it out of the story at the last minute when Childress finally said he'd appeal. (Hendrick came out of the gate saying he would appeal, so the issue of who was going to sub in the No. 48 and No. 5 pits never came up.)
Also, Dustin had an intriguing piece about NASCAR's effort to reach out to Latino fans here and in Mexico. The Acapulco 400? Maybe someday soon.
Thursday update: Childress still plans an appeal, but Todd Berrier will be on the sidelines for the Atlanta race. It's complicated, so go here for more. As Dustin mentioned yesterday, Scott Miller will be atop the No. 29 box on Sunday.
