Hendrick Motorsports vice chairman Jeff Gordon said Tuesday that the organization accepted the disqualification penalty handed to its No. 48 Chevrolet team last weekend, explaining that the team did not file an appeal in part because no exonerating evidence was found in post-race inspection.

Hendrick Motorsports chose not to appeal the penalty. “We looked at all the facts, and we didn’t feel like there’s really anything that we felt comfortable appealing and we’re going to move on,” Gordon said.

Hendrick Motorsports vice chairman Jeff Gordon appeared on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio on Tuesday morning and detailed the decision to not to appeal the disqualification that eliminated Alex Bowman from the Cup Series playoffs.
