Hit with L1 penalty after NHMS Bowman received a 25 point penalty after Sunday's race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway or engine-allocation infractions, Bob Pockrass of Fox Sports reports. Impact Due to an error made by Hendrick Motorsports, the No. 9 car received the No. 48's sealed engine and visa versa. There is no competitive advantage, but the error means a loss of 25 championship points for both drivers and a $50,000 fine for Bowman's crew chief Greg Ives, and Elliott's crew chief Alan Gustafson. The next Cup Series race is in two weeks time at Watkins Glen.
