NASCAR Sprint Cup - Martinsville - dimanche 19h00 sur AB Moteurs

MARTINSVILLE, Va. -- Kasey Kahne confirmed Friday at Martinsville that former Jeff Gordon spotter Shannon McGlamery will replace Kahne's cousin, Kole Kahne, as spotter for the No. 5 Chevrolet -- on an interim basis.

Kole Kahne drew fire after Kahne wrecked on Lap 24 in the March 18 race at Bristol. The spotter had cleared the driver, but Regan Smith nosed his car to Kahne's outside, and Kahne ignited a multicar wreck when he moved toward the outside wall, thinking he had room.

Kahne, however, said issues last Sunday at California Speedway led to the change. McGlamery will spot the No. 5 car for two weeks, after which Kahne and his team will evaluate the results.

"I'd say it's just something I wanted to do, something different," Kahne said. "I was a little unpleased after California. And we're just looking at something for a couple of weeks. We're going to see after Texas [Apr. 14]. I'm going to sit down and sort of decide whether that's the direction I want to go or if I feel comfortable with Kole doing it again."

JPM radios in that he's wheel hopping and can't turn. 28th. Lap 83. Still under green. Gordon is leading again.
