Vote now: What do you think of NASCAR's decision to limit driver participation?
Race rans, time to weigh in on another hot topic in NASCAR.
In a move designed to hopefully promote driver development, NASCAR announced on Wednesday that it will limit the number of events a Premier Series driver can enter in the XFINITY Series and the Camping World Truck Series, beginning next season.
In a release, NASCAR said that it hopes this will "put an even brighter spotlight on the next generation of stars and bolster the identity of all three of its national series."
To recap, starting next season Premier Series drivers -- in what currently is called the Sprint Cup Series -- with more than five years of full-time experience will be eligible to compete in a maximum of 10 races in the XFINITY Series and seven races in the Truck Series.
Additionally, drivers with more than five years of full-time experience in what is currently Sprint Cup will be ineligible to compete in the final eight races in each series, as well as the Dash 4 Cash races in the XFINITY Series. The final eight races are comprised of the regular-season finale and the entirety of the Chase in each series.
Was it the right call? Did NASCAR need to do more to help the lower-division series? Or did the governing body go too far?
