NASCAR News: Derek White suspended for alleged smuggling involvement
Xfinity Series owner and driver Derek White has been suspended indefinitely by NASCAR for violation of its membership policy.
The 45-year-old White was arrested Wednesday as part of what authorities are calling the biggest tobacco-smuggling bust in North American history.
On Monday, NASCAR reached a decision and made a huge announcement that it’s suspending White for violating a section of the Xfinity Series Rule Book that states: “Any NASCAR member charged with any violation of the law (misdemeanor and/or felony) shall notify NASCAR … prior to the next scheduled Event or within 72 hours of being so charged, whichever is earlier.”
