He went under the yellow line at Talladega to make a pass at the end of the race. You can't go under that line to gain positions. If you do, you have to give the spot back or you're black flagged (pass through the pits usually). Most tracks have a white inside line, and you can drive under it all you want, but the ones with yellow lines are a no-no.

I'm pretty sure you can put your tires on the line, but if in their judgment you go too far they will penalize you.
