a better end to the dhl 400 today. compared to last week, no lengthy cautions and no bumper tag today. matt kenseth and kevin harvick got fined $25,000, lost 10 championship points and got put on probation until august 11. as far as cautions, no confusion as to which driver went where which caused the lengthy cautions the last couple of races. judging by today, that problem got solved. a good clean race in which ryan newman won. next week, the first of two road course races. this one in sonoma, california. more later
