NASCAR Cup race at Michigan disrupted by rain, will resume Monday
The remainder of Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race at Michigan International Speedway has been postponed until noon ET Monday due to persistent rain and diminishing daylight.
Rain delayed the start of the FireKeepers Casino 400 by 1 hour and 43 minutes after showers fell during pace laps. The field managed to complete 74 of the scheduled 200 laps, but additional showers descended upon the two-mile oval and forced officials to halt the event.
USA Network will carry coverage of the resumed race, with MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio handling the radio broadcast. Fans can stream the race on the NBC Sports website and the NBC Sports app.
