Crash and DNF at Martinsville Nemechek crashed and finished 36th in the Cook Out 400 NASCAR Cup Series race at Martinsville Speedway Sunday afternoon.

Impact The Legacy Motor Club driver had his day ruined with just 3 laps to go. His Toyota would blow a right front tire and send him hard into the turn 3 wall. That would bring out the caution and setup overtime. For Nemehek, he'd limp his damaged machine back to pit road and he would be finished for the day with the disappointing DNF.
