\"NASCAR,<\/p>\n

Due to challenges resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, NASCAR will adjust two race weekends immediately following the 63rd<\/sup> running of the DAYTONA 500 on Sunday, Feb. 14. Obviously the pandemic has made planning and pre planning vital for races to go off without a hitch so NASCAR is hoping these schedule changes give them the best chance to get rolling. All three NASCAR national series will now remain in Daytona to run a tripleheader at the storied road course Feb. 19-21 before the NASCAR Cup Series and NASCAR Xfinity Series head down to Homestead-Miami Speedway on Feb. 27-28.<\/p>\n

The NASCAR Cup Series and NASCAR Xfinity Series races on the Daytona road course will replace the events originally scheduled to take place at Auto Club Speedway on Feb. 27-28. The Camping World Truck Series race is realigned from the event originally scheduled to take place at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Friday, Feb. 19.<\/p>\n

After consecutive race weekends in Daytona, the Cup and Xfinity Series will make the trek to Homestead-Miami Speedway one week later than originally scheduled, rounding out the Florida swing Feb. 27-28.<\/p>\n

Following the events at Homestead-Miami Speedway, the NASCAR Cup Series, NASCAR Xfinity Series and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series will all head to Las Vegas Motor Speedway as originally planned March 5-7.<\/p>\n

FOX Sports platforms will carry coverage of all aforementioned race weekends, including annual coverage of the DAYTONA 500 on FOX. A complete schedule of start times and networks for all three series will be announced soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
