2:45 p.m.: It is still raining at the track and no start time for the race has been clarified, per Fox Sports’ Bob Pockrass.
2:30 p.m.: Drivers are heading back to their motorhomes for now, as driver intros are expected to occur there when the track is ready for racing conditions. Rain is still falling and the track will need time to dry before the race begins. That means the race will not start on time.
With the rain, NASCAR tells drivers they can go to their motorhomes as driver intros will be by their cars when ready.
