Video: Cindric Tire Goes Flat Then Ty Dillon and Riley Herbst Crash at Las Vegas

Austin Cindric just capped off the Stage 1 win, but things got off to a rough start in Stage 2 for the driver of the No. 22 Team Penske Ford Mustang, as a tire cut down on the restart.

Cindric lost a lap limping around the track, but he was saved when Ty Dillon slid up into Michael Annett. The contact with Annett, sent Dillon spinning down the track, where he collected Riley Herbst.

Herbst, has had rough luck in every race this season.

Dillon’s damage was only to the driver’s door area of his No. 54 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota, so he was able to continue. Herbst wasn’t as lucky and suffered his third DNF in the opening four races of the 2021 season.
