— -- RICHMOND, Va. -- It was a big week for Tony Stewart, who made his presence known on and off the track.
Within a 24-hour period, Stewart learned that he had recovered sufficiently from a spinal fracture suffered in a sand buggy accident in early February to make his 2016 season debut. He also criticized NASCAR's lug nut observation policy at an event for his sponsor Mobil 1, garnering a $35,000 fine that his fellow members on the NASCAR Driver Council quickly agreed to pay.
