Simple. NASCAR has become the huge money machine it is because skilled marketing has massaged it into true family entertainment. Keeping profanity out of the language will not turn away any die hard NASCAR fan. But allowing it to pepper interviews WILL turn away many folks who just don't want their kids hearing it. So, to maximize the fan body, they need to keep the overall flavor tolerable to everyone.
Of course there are much better reasons to "keep it clean" than marketing, but I suspect those reasons aren't a big concern to the money machine.
