Josh Williams has been suspended from competing in Saturday’s NASCAR Xfinity Series event at Circuit of The Americas, after his actions from last weekend’s event at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Williams violated Sections 4.3.A; 4.4.B & D, and Section 8.7.6 of the NASCAR Xfinity Series Rule Book, when parking his No. 92 Chevrolet Camaro at the start-finish line, after the sanctioning body informed him that he would be done for the afternoon.

After sitting in the NASCAR Xfinity Series trailer for the duration of the long-winded event, Williams said he was “shocked” by being parked, and that he would be accepting any penalties that NASCAR would throw his way.

Alex Labbe will drive the No. 92 Chevrolet Camaro in his place at COTA.

Also, In the early portion of Saturday’s NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series event at Atlanta Motor Speedway, a caution flew for a piece of ballast that had been shot onto the track by one of the trucks.

That piece of ballast belonged to Mason Massey, who competes on a full-time basis in the series for Reaume Brothers Racing. As a result of this, Gregory Rayl, Matthew Crossman, and Travis Armstrong have been suspended for the next three NASCAR Truck Series events.

Carson Hocevar, who competes on a full-time basis in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series for Niece Motorsports, will attempt to make his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut in Saturday’s Pit Boss Grills 250 at COTA, driving the No. 07.

Hocevar was originally scheduled to make his series debut with Spire Motorsports at Dover Motor Speedway, but instead will get his first experience behind the wheel of a NASCAR Xfinity Series entry at the 3.41-mile Austin, Texas road course.
