Bowman immediately came over the radio and apologized for the contact, claiming that the cause was a lack of rear brakes.
Following the spin, Larson was relegated to the 12th position.
Both drivers failed to finish within the top ten following the contact, as teammate Chase Elliott took home the win in the Cup Series’ return to the iconic road course.
