They finally got going in Daytona after a 60 minute rain delay. Rick Allen, Jeff Burton and Steve Letarte are calling the race. Sprint Cup qualifying was rained out due to the weather. Congrats to Daniel Suarez on his first Xfinity Series pole. NASCAR has ordered a competition caution on lap 20.<\/p>\n
Bobby Gerhart brings out the first caution on lap 3 of 100 as he takes a spin through the infield grass.<\/p>\n
They keep going to an overhead shot that makes me dizzy. It seems to be a blimp shot of the entire field that rotates.<\/p>\n
Cale Conley brings out the second caution on lap 9 of 100 with a spin.<\/p>\n
Caution is out o lap 15 of 100 as Derricke Cope hits the wall. Derricke apparently got into the race due to the 13 car’s time being disallowed 0 according to Rick Allen.<\/p>\n
With 10 laps to go the big one occurs as the 3, Ty Dillon, pushes and turns Ryan Reed in the 16. John Wes Townley, Darrell Wallace Jr, Daniel Suarez, Ryan Reed, Brennan Poole, Aric Almirola, Chris Buescher, Brendan Gaughan, Blake Koch, Joey Gase, Regan Smith, Kasey Kahne, and Martin Roy all involved.<\/p>\n
The race has been red-flagged. Now under caution with lots of work on several cars including Chris Buescher and Ty Dillon who are leading in the points now.<\/p>\n
They restart with five laps to go. <\/p>\n
With 4 laps to go Brian Scott tried to block Elliott Sadler and collected a bunch of cars including Joey Logano, Regan Smith, Erik Jones, David Ragan, David Starr, and Chase Elliott.<\/p>\n
We’re looking at a GWC finish. Austin Dillon inherits the lead when leader Brian Scott takes out second place Elliott Sadler and the guys behind him.<\/p>\n
Austin Dillon, Dakoda Armstrong, Chase Elliott, Kasey Kahne, Harrison Rhodes, Benny Gordon, Erik Jones and Elliott Sadler are drivers who are left to fight.<\/p>\n
Austin Dillon takes the checkered flag. He’s in the series he should race, so its not much of a surprise. Daniel Suarez spun out as they were headed to the checkered flag.<\/p>\n
Elliott Sadler was pushing the 9 trying to get a run around Austin, but Chase would never pull out. Elliott pulled out at the end, but too late.<\/p>\n
Elliott Sadler finished second, Chase finished third, Kasey finished fourth, Benny Gordon finished fifth, .<\/p>\n
David Ragan Dakoda Armstrong, Erik Jones, Harrison Rhodes and Ross Chastain round out tonight’s top ten.<\/p>\n
On their first race, the new broadcast team of Rick Allen, Jeff Burton and Steve Letarte were pretty good. Letarte talked too much – occasionally nerding out and babbling, but in general good. He also looked quite professional as he tossed to the others and received the toss and switched cameras. He occasionally trampled into Burton’s area talking a bit too much about what the driver was experiencing, feeling or thinking. He has to remember there’s a driver standing to his right who can – and should – give plenty of insight in those areas.<\/p>\n
