One NASCAR driver (not named Joey Logano) penalized before Richmond

After crashing his No. 22 Ford in practice, Team Penske’s Joey Logano did not turn a qualifying lap on Friday night at Richmond Raceway and was therefore always going to start at the tail end of the 38-car field for Saturday night’s Cook Out 400 NASCAR Cup Series race following repairs.

Now one other driver is set to join him there to kick off this 400-lap race around the four-turn, 0.75-mile (1.207-kilometer) Richmond, Virginia short track.

Front Row Motorsports’ Todd Gilliland initially qualified for the 2025 regular season’s penultimate race in 31st place, but he is set to drop to the tail end of the inside lane after the No. 34 team made throttle body repairs to his No. 34 Ford.

Because of how “to the rear” penalties work, the drivers who were slated to start behind him are simply set to move up one row each. So 32nd place qualifier Corey Heim is still set to start 32nd, but 33rd place qualifier Jesse Love is set to take Gilliland’s spot in 31st.

Here is an updated look at the starting lineup for the Cook Out 400 at Richmond.
