"NASCAR’s policy is that it won’t start a race without a plan to get to the advertised distance. In the case of inclement weather, though, officials can shoot for getting to the halfway point (or the end of the second stage, if that is earlier) once a race starts to make the results official. For Daytona, that would be 100 laps.
But the Daytona 500 is an event NASCAR likely wants to have run the full 200 laps. With three hours of racing time still needed after drivers completed just 15 laps Sunday, officials likely will want to resume by around 10 p.m. ET Sunday night; NASCAR typically doesn’t race much later than 1 a.m., though previous races at Daytona have stretched that deep into the night."...!!!
