I brought this up after the Topless last weekend. Someone, I believe one of the Scotts, slowed down late in the race and almost certainly cost us a great finish. No flat, no problem that was apparent, just slow down then pull off.
NASCAR has gotten a lot wrong over the years, but they get this one right. They won't tolerate a guy pulling this stuff.

They did with Denny Hamlin in St Louis with his waiting lap after lap for the 1 car to come around. He did it for 50 laps and could still not wreck Chastain.

This thread is a very good complaint. A lot of drivers do this after going a lap down or just before getting lapped. The big question is: how to you deter it?? That’s a deal that opens up a can of worms as for what can/cannot be done about it. How can you police it- or can you??

I think something needs to be done but I doubt anything will happen. Officials would have to use some discretion and too many teams and drivers and fans would whine and get their way.
Actually, that's not all that different from what's happening. "My night isn't going well so I'm gonna interrupt the whole show because I want to."
