Rain Pushes Daytona 500 to Monday

NASCAR has postponed the season-opening Daytona 500 until Monday because of two days of rain at Daytona International Speedway.

 

The race had been scheduled for Sunday afternoon, although the weather forecast put that in doubt all week. The final practice for drivers was canceled on Saturday, as was the Xfinity Series race.

 

The Xfinity Series race is now scheduled to be held Monday morning, hours ahead of the 4 p.m. start for the Daytona 500.

 

Joey Logano is set to start from the pole for Team Penske.
