Chase Elliott won the NASCAR All-Star race at Bristol and said he had the opportunity to watch another race that weekend from the stands. Teams, each allowed 16 members, arrived in the morning at designated times and temperatures were screened before entering the infield. The NBCSports broadcast crew didn’t make the trip, either.
“I mean, NASCAR is built on the fans. Kansas Speedway becomes its own small town when NASCAR arrives for a typical race weekend.A fleet of RVs rolls in, occupants claiming spots on the infield and above the track, not leaving until long after the final race ends.

“It is very similar to coming back after 9/11 but that day had 100,000 fans in the stands and now you have no fans.” (Reporting by Steve Keating in Toronto; Editing by Richard Pullin/Peter Rutherford) (Reuters) – Kevin Harvick and NASCAR both celebrated victories on Sunday as the stock car series returned to live racing from a two-month novel coronavirus forced hiatus at an empty Darlington Raceway.While the day unfolded with none of the bells and whistles that have made NASCAR North America’s most popular motor sport, on the track the race delivered as promised with plenty of bumper-to-bumper action.Harvick, winner of the 2007 Daytona 500, produced a masterful drive to pull away after a late restart to cross 2.15 seconds clear of Alex Bowman and Kurt Busch to collect his 50th career Cup win.The 44-year-old driver celebrated his victory in what has become typical NASCAR fashion with some tire burning donuts that would normally spark a massive roar of approval from the stands but in this race there was no one to witness the show.Not even the growl from 40 V8 stock car engines could make up for the silence as drivers exited the track to muffled applause from pit crews and officials.“I didn’t think it was going to be that much different and then we won the race and it is dead silent out here, so we miss the fans,” said a bewildered Harvick, standing alone on the track.
