And the Least Surprising Headline is…
NASCAR suspends driver Hmiel for indefinite time:
Driver Shane Hmiel has been suspended from competition indefinitely by NASCAR after failing a third substance abuse test.“Shane failed to fulfill the prescribed rehabilitation program scheduled by NASCAR,” NASCAR spokesman Ramsey Poston said Friday. “As a result, Shane has forfeited his opportunity to compete in any NASCAR-sanctioned events.”
NASCAR didn’t say which of the requirements Hmiel failed - medical and psychological reviews or frequent testing - but it matters little. He knew what the conditions were and disregarded them. Tough.
In the inimitable words of the late, great comedian George Burns, “Say good night Gracie.”
