Austin Hill got a one-race suspension for wrecking Aric Almirola, and Almirola says the hit was one of the biggest of his entire NASCAR career.

Austin Hill is suspended for one NASCAR Xfinity Series race for the contact with Aric Almirola that produced a late-race crash at Indianapolis.

Under NASCAR’s rule revision this year, team owner Richard Childress must apply for a waiver for Hill to be admitted to the playoffs since he is missing the Iowa Xfinity Series race. Austin Dillon is driving Hill’s Xfinity car at Iowa.
