Enthusiasts of NASCAR are rapidly approaching the Daytona 500 on Sunday.
According to the auto racing organization, the Daytona 500, sometimes referred to as “The Great American Race,” is a staple of the NASCAR cup series and kicks off the NASCAR season. It starts with the race at 2:30 p.m.
This year’s Daytona 500 will feature a pre-race concert by Pitbull and a celebrity Q&A featuring none other than Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, which will only heighten the excitement.
Before the race, Grammy Award-winning DJ, musician, and music producer DJ Khaled is scheduled to raise the green flag.
