Adam Stevens, crew chief for the No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota driven by Kyle Busch has been fined $20,000 and suspended for one race.

Stevens has also been placed on probation through Dec. 31, while front tire changer John Leslie has also been suspended for this weekend’s event at Dover (Del.) Int’l Speedway and placed on probation though the end of the calendar year. See related rumor.
