They should stomp on this pronto. Gordon should be in the chase even though he may be number 13. Logano should not be penalized but hid team should.
This whole thing stinks of the conspricy that NASCAR is trying to avoid.

UPDATE 4: NASCAR CEO Brian France and NASCAR President Mike Helton held a press conference Friday afternoon at Chicagoland Speedway. They announced that Penske Racing and Front Row Motorsports teams were being placed on probation for the remainder of the season for "actions detrimental to stock car racing'. In addition, NASCAR will hold a mandatory meeting for NASCAR drivers and crew chiefs Saturday at the track to discuss "ethics".
Furthermore, #24-Jeff Gordon will be added to the Chase field as a 13th driver since the actions of Penske and Front Row were out of his control.(9-13-2013)
If Gordon ever had a problem with the #13, I'll bet it's gone now. Glad they fixed this, it was the right thing to do.
Agreed 100%
And just to be controversial, I'm going to root for Bowyer to win the Cup! :costum:
Not controversial by me, I agree Bowyer all the way. He'll make a great champ.
