According to the Washington Post, citing a NASCAR official with knowledge of the deliberations, the racing association’s executives notified the team Tuesday afternoon of its decision. The Washington Post also reports, “NASCAR made clear during a November discussion about the potential sponsorship that it would not allow any reference or imagery based on the chant.
