NASCAR Is Going Back to Racing on May 17
Quote:
According to NASCAR, the 400-mile event at Darlington will be the first time any of its cars have been on track since mid-March. It confirmed that no spectators will be allowed into any of its May events. The series wants the first three race locations to be drivable from team headquarters to minimize personnel using plane travel and hotels.
And while the events themselves will return, NASCAR has eliminated all practice and qualifying sessions for every event in May, save for the Coca-Cola 600 qualifying. The reason? To limit the amount of pre-race activity at the tracks, and minimize how much person-to-person contact is necessary. During a teleconference, a NASCAR representative said the series was not ready to announce how it plans to determine qualifying for the other six events.
