The No. 38 FRM team becomes the third team this year to be penalized for losing a wheel in the Next Gen era.

NASCAR switched to a center-locking wheels with a single lug nut for the 2022 season.

Gilliland's crew chief Seth Barbour, as well as crew members Jourdan Osinskie and Tanner Andrews have been suspended from the next four points-paying events.

Previously, both the No. 31 Kaulig Racing team and the No. 50 TMTR group faced the same penalty for issues during the Daytona 500.
