Rain Forces Postponement Of Weekend Activities to Monday

INDIANAPOLIS - Rain and NASCAR have been at battle all weekend long and rain ended up picking up the victory this weekend putting both the Big Machine Vodka Brickyard 400 and the Lilly Diabetes 250 on Monday, September 10th. The Lilly Diabetes 250 will kick off at 10 a.m. while the Big Machine Vodka Brickyard 400 will kick off following the 250-miler, approximately 2 p.m. ET. 

It is the first XFINITY/Cup Series doubleheader at Indianapolis and first XFINITY/Cup Series doubleheader since Dover in 2016. The race will be only the third doubleheader since 2010. Kasey Kahne is the defending race winner of the Brickyard 400 but he will not defend that title as Regan Smith is filling in for him as he gets more tests from the doctors. (Koelle,2018)
