NASCAR Admits Red Flag Should Have Flown at Daytona

NASCAR stated that a red flag should have been flown after a late-race, multi-car wreck forced overtime in Saturday’s Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona. Instead of halting the race to do extensive clean-up, NASCAR opted to keep the race under caution. With nine circuits remaining, Carson Hocevar spun out in turn 3 and collected Erik Jones in a violent two-car collision. The yellow flag was waved and the race did not return to green until four laps over the scheduled 160-lap distance.NASCAR&rs
