What, No Points?

NASCAR on Tuesday suspended crew chief Chad Knaus for the next three Nextel Cup races for modifying the rear window of Jimmie Johnson's car before qualifying for the Daytona 500.
Hendrick Motorsports owner Rick Hendrick said Monday morning that barring unforeseen circumstances, the organization would not appeal what they feel is a certain NASCAR suspension of crew chief Chad Knaus.
Knaus, who was ejected from the 500 for the infraction, will miss this week's race at California, the March 12 race at Las Vegas and the March 19 race at Atlanta.
He also was fined $25,000 and placed on probation until Dec. 31.
