DuraMAX Drydene 400 at Dover postponed to Monday afternoon
DOVER, DEL. — Three of the last four spring NASCAR Cup Series races at Dover have now been affected by rain as the DuraMAX Drydene 400 will be completed Monday afternoon.
The race will be continued Monday at 12 p.m. ET (TV: FS1; Radio: MRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Ch. 90).
After 78 laps, the top 10 is as follows: Kyle Larson (5 laps led), Chase Elliott, Ryan Blaney, Martin Truex Jr., William Byron, Christopher Bell, Aric Almirola, Denny Hamlin (55 laps led), Alex Bowman, Kyle Busch.
Polesitter Chris Buescher led 18 laps but sits in 13th.
There have been two cautions for 13 laps and two lead changes among three drivers.
In May 2019, the spring Dover race was run entirely on a Monday – one year after rain caused a brief delay during a spring Dover race won by Kevin Harvick on a Sunday. Martin Truex Jr. won the May 2019 race.
