I am glad to hear that it is not a life threatening injury, and wishing him on a speedy recovery!.

 

That was scary to see, seeing how the driver's side window/roof was crushed-in, and how his car bounced up into the air after being hit by Corey Lajoie, and seeing Newman's car nearly reach the top of that fence, thank god Newman's car didn't go over it or hit it, and thank god he wasn't hit again when he landed back down on his roof by the other cars racing to the stripe!.

 

Keep on treasure hunting??

Interesting.....Chastain will fill in for Newman and Chastain's regular ride in infinity is a Chevy.   I can't remember the last time a driver crossed brands when driving both series.   But I like Chastain, so I hope he does well in the 6 car.

Get ready to pick you teams again players.............

 

NASCAR will return to action at Darlington Raceway on May 17, kicking off a packed two-week schedule announced Thursday.

The races themselves will look familiar, but the schedules and routines around those races will not, crafted with the intent of keeping competitors safe from the coronavirus.

The 400-mile Cup Series event on May 17 will be the first of seven events in 11 days involving all three NASCAR national series. The revised schedule has a pair of Wednesday races, fulfilling fans' longtime plea for midweek events.

Three of those races -- two Cup Series races and an Xfinity Series event -- will be held at Darlington, NASCAR's oldest superspeedway.

NASCAR Ready To Return

NASCAR will return with seven races -- including four Cup Series races -- over an 11-day span, beginning May 17 at Darlington Raceway.

Date Series Track Dist.
May 17 Cup Darlington 400 mi
May 19 Xfinity Darlington 200 mi
May 20 Cup Darlington 500 km
May 24 Cup Charlotte 600 mi
May 25 Xfinity Charlotte 300 mi
May 26 Trucks Charlotte 200 mi
May 27 Cup Charlotte 500 km

"Darlington is one of the most iconic and historic tracks in the sport and will be a tremendous backdrop when NASCAR returns to racing,'' track president Kerry Tharp said of the South Carolina venue.

The other four races -- two Cup Series events, an Xfinity Series event and a Gander Trucks race -- will be held at Charlotte Motor Speedway in North Carolina. That includes the Coca-Cola 600 on May 24, marking 60 consecutive years that the longest race on the NASCAR schedule will be held on Memorial Day weekend.

None of the May events will include race fans.

"That is still a work in progress," Steve O'Donnell, NASCAR executive vice president and chief racing development officer, said during a media teleconference Thursday.

The Darlington events will be run without qualifying or practice. The Cup Series races at Charlotte hope to include qualifying, but NASCAR officials say that could change depending on what they learn at Darlington.

NASCAR joins the UFC, which returns May 9, as the first major sports organizations to announce specific return-to-play plans since the coronavirus pandemic shut down U.S. sports in mid-March.

NASCAR has worked with the state and local governments of its racetrack locations to determine what it believes is the best plan of attack to return to racing. Earlier this week, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper discussed those conversations, saying his state health officials had sent back some notes but ultimately approved NASCAR's plans.

Among the procedures that will be in place, as explained Thursday by O'Donnell and John Bobo, NASCAR's vice president of racing operations:

  • Only licensed NASCAR team members will be allowed into the racetrack. They will be required to wear cloth face masks. Anyone who does not will be removed from the facility.

  • Teams' work areas in the garage will be spread out to comply with social distancing guidelines.

  • Spotters, normally working shoulder-to-shoulder atop the press box/tower, will be spread out to comply with social distancing guidelines.

  • Competitor motor homes will be allowed in the racetrack infield, but instead of occupying one enclosed area, they will be spread out throughout the infield.

  • Teams will be limited to 16 total members, including the driver.

  • All events will include live pit stops. O'Donnell said that live pit stops were a high priority during the formulation of the return plans, in order to make the race experience look and feel as normal as possible.

  • Over-the-wall pit crew members will use face screens or neck socks in addition to their normal gear of firesuits, helmets and gloves.

  • NASCAR has asked race teams to closely monitor the health of their employees before, during and following each event.

  • There will be random temperature checks of everyone working in the garage area. Anyone determined to be symptomatic will be checked via an outside care center. If they are determined to be a potential virus threat, they will be required to leave and be replaced with another crew member. This includes drivers.

  • NASCAR is asking everyone inside a race facility to keep a contact tracing log, manually at first and then by implementing digital inputs. If a worker shows symptoms, that person and those he was in contact with will need to self-isolate.

  • Media coverage outside of the TV and radio broadcast partners is still being determined.

Crew members and drivers will not receive virus tests, Bobo said, because COVID-19 tests still aren't widely available to the public and the sanctioning body is "reluctant to take tests away from communities in need."

NASCAR has a tentative schedule plan for June and beyond, made up primarily of classic Southeastern racetracks that are within easy driving distance of most teams' headquarters in the Charlotte area.

"This has been a proactive effort to put our motorsports industry back to work and boost the morale of sports fans around the world, while at the same time keeping the health and safety of all who will be on site the top priority," said Marcus Smith, president and CEO of Speedway Motorsports.
