In a bold move to dodge the looming threat of rain, NASCAR has officially pushed the start time of the highly anticipated Daytona 500 forward by one hour! Originally set for 2:30 PM ET, the race will now kick off at 1:30 PM ET, as officials scramble to ensure that this iconic event unfolds smoothly under the Florida sun.

The Daytona Beach area is bracing for a potential deluge late Sunday, prompting this strategic adjustment. Fans and drivers alike are keenly aware that weather conditions can be a racing nightmare, and NASCAR is taking no chances with the 65th edition of this legendary race.

With the stakes high and excitement levels soaring, the Daytona 500 is a crown jewel of the NASCAR calendar, attracting thousands of avid fans and millions of viewers worldwide.
