How did it happen?
Pole sitter Kyle Busch jumped to the lead ahead of Martin Truex Jr. and Chase Elliott through the first corner as misty conditions surrounded the track. Busch led the first six laps but the asphalt got increasingly wet as drivers complained about moisture on the speedway. On lap 7, Busch couldn’t find any grip, sending him spinning into the outside wall in turn 2. Truex followed suit as several others (Denny Hamlin, Ross Chastain) either spun or slid into other cars, suffering damage. Elliott slowed way down and avoided the two leaders in one of the more bizarre situations in recent NASCAR history.

Friday Faceoff: Should NASCAR Take a Summer Vacation Every Year?
July 15, 2021
Should NASCAR continue to schedule back-to-back off-weekends in the late summer even when no Summer Olympics are being held?
Trenton Worsham: Not back to back, but it’d be nice for it to have two or three more weeks off scattered out throughout the year as bye weeks.
Josh Roller: I like the idea of a late summer break for NASCAR. The season is long and compact, and sometimes having only a single weekend off probably doesn’t seem long enough for those who travel to all the races. Having back-to-back weekends off gives the entire industry time to plan a vacation or family time, home improvements and, in general, extended time away from the track. Formula 1 has scheduled a summer break for years and includes a shutdown of team factory activities. I don’t see NASCAR reducing the length of the schedule, so having a back-to-back weekend break is a recent change I would like to remain.
