DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — The NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Daytona International Speedway was postponed Friday night because of heavy rain. The 100-lap event will resume at 12:30 p.m. Saturday, about seven hours before the Cup Series regular-season finale. The sky opened after 19 laps Friday, and the race was halted with AJ Allmendinger out front. Brandon Jones dropped out after getting a piece of debris stuck on his grill that caused his engine to overheat. ___More AP NASCAR: https://apnews.com/NASCARAJ Allmendinger's crew members cover his car on pit road during a rain delay at the NASCAR Xfinity Series auto race at Daytona International Speedway, Friday, Aug. 27, 2021, in Daytona Beach, Fla.
