Christopher Bell has expressed his shock at Joe Gibbs Racing's rule change after the NASCAR team moved to replace Martin Truex Jr.

Christopher Bell's views on the Martinsville race manipulation controversy & how it ultimately affected the Final 4 standings.

Bell was penalized after the race on Sunday at Martinsville Speedway when NASCAR deemed he committed a safety violation, effectively replicating the now banned Hail Melon made famous by Ross Chastain in 2022, and it resulted in his elimination from the final transfer spot into the Championship Race.

Joe Gibbs Racing drivers will be able to compete in more dirt racing events moving forward. On Monday, The Athletic's Jeff Gluck reported that Joe Gibbs Racing will lift dirt racing restrictions for its NASCAR Cup Series drivers.
