NASCAR will no longer issue secret fines, the sanctioning body announced Wednesday afternoon.
"While there are always sensitivities related to sponsor relationships and other leagues may continue issuing disclosed and undisclosed fines, NASCAR has decided that all fines moving forward will be made public after the competitor or organization that has been penalized has been informed," a NASCAR statement said.
This is a great change of heart (you can read about our past disgust with secret fines here) and NASCAR will be better off for it.
Clearly, the "new" NASCAR continues to listen to fan concerns and address them.
