Tempers flare for Cole Custer, Austin Hill during Xfinity Charlotte race

Cole Custer and Austin Hill crashed during Saturday afternoon’s race at the 1.5-mile track.

Reddick will start from the rear of the field for Sunday's race. The No. 45 crew made unapproved adjustments to the underwing of the Toyota after it went through tech.

As a result, NASCAR ejected the team's car chief. Reddick will also have to serve a pass-through penalty at the start of Sunday's race.

Chris Buescher was unable to take a qualifying lap. He crashed during practice and will have to go to a backup car for Sunday's race.

Fox will broadcast the Coca-Cola 600 at 6 p.m. ET. Pre-race coverage starts on FS1 at 4:30 p.m and moves to Fox at 5:30 p.m.
