Aunque ya estamos en la primera semana de la primavera, el Martinsville Speedway amaneció cubierto de nieve y obligó a post poner la STP 500 de la Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series para el lunes.
Los pilotos de la Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series practicaron el sábado sobre el óvalo de media milla, pero la carrera de la NASCAR Camping World Truck Series y la clasificación de la Cup Series fueron pospuestas para el domingo y ahora para el lunes.
La inesperada nevada creó otra tormenta en las redes sociales de los equipos y los pilotos, incluyendo a Denny Hamlin, quien se crió cerca de la pista y fue el primer sorprendido con la nevada.

The weather outside is frightful 🎶
Seriously, biggest snow flakes I‘ve seen in years coming down at Martinsville speedway.
Thankfully not sticking to the ground… as of now.
