Rain Pushes NASCAR Cup Series At Texas To Monday

Persistent precipitation has pushed the resumption of Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Texas Motor Speedway to Monday morning.

The race started under a light mist, and ran the first 42 laps as the mist became heavier and a fog settled in. That led officials first to throw the caution flag, followed 10 laps later by a red flag for the deteriorating conditions.

The halt came after a couple of Playoff contenders had issues. Kevin Harvick was leading when his car got into the backstretch wall on lap 30. That brought him to pit road under green for repairs.

Behind him on the same lap, Denny Hamlin’s car slid high in turn 2, but he was able to stay out of the wall and continue. Just a few laps later, the race was brought to a halt due to the weather.

NASCAR and track officials worked hard to try to keep the track close to race condition. Just before 9 pm, race officials made the call to postpone the event.
