Jeremy Mayfield
FameRank: 4

"Jeremy Allen Mayfield" is a former NASCAR driver who last competed in 2009 due to legal troubles and an indefinite suspension by NASCAR. Prior to 2009, Mayfield drove cars for the Sadler Brothers, T.W. Taylor, Cale Yarborough, Michael Kranefuss, Roger Penske, Ray Evernham, Bill Davis Racing/Bill Davis, and Gene Haas. He last drove for his own team, Mayfield Motorsports, before his suspension.

On May 9, 2009, Mayfield was suspended indefinitely as both owner and driver by NASCAR following what NASCAR said was a positive test for methamphetamine. A federal judge weighed the evidence and subsequently temporarily lifted the suspension on July 1, 2009. On July 15, 2009, it was revealed by NASCAR that Mayfield had for the second time tested positive for methamphetamine after failing a random drug test on July 6. On July 24, a federal appeals court overturned the previous injunction Mayfield had been awarded, leaving him suspended from the sport.

It means everything to be in the 'Chase' two years in a row, ... It certainly says a lot for our race team. Everybody at Evernham Motorsports has worked so hard to get us where we needed to be. They have just worked their tails off this year.

I think we might see some changes, maybe expanding the number of cars in the Chase, ... but not that one.

We should have pitted with the leaders late there at Bristol, ... But we didn't, and we paid for it. But that's NASCAR â€' you win some, or none, and you lose most.

It's part of racing. We were the innocent victims in that mess, but what could we do about it?

You hear stuff at the end of the race when you're leading and you're going to have a chance to win.

You get one or two teams having big, winning years, like [Tony Stewart and Greg Biffle] are doing this year, ... and that doesn't leave too many wins for the rest of us.
