NASCAR has confirmed details of 17 penalties handed down during Saturday night's dramatic race at Richmond.

The race was pit road-heavy as teams worked hard to make the most of their eight sets of new Goodyear tires, with a number of them getting in their own way in a rush to get an advantage on their rivals.

Denny Hamlin and his No. 11 team had a particularly disastrous night on pit road, only picking up one early penalty for speeding but muffing a number of their pit stops to edge the car out of contention.

Hamlin wasn't the only one beset with pit road issues, with a number of challengers for the race win making unforced errors – perhaps the worst of the bunch being Bubba Wallace's No. 23 crew sending him away from his pit box with his front left wheel unsecured.

Wallace had looked a real contender for the win at the time, but had to stop in another team's pit box to get the wheel reattached, costing him a huge amount of time for the incident alone before being penalized for pitting out of his assigned box.
