Just a couple of laps later, once NASCAR had given the field one-to-green, precipitation began to fall from the sky, further delaying the restart of the event. However, it didn’t take long for that rain to turn into… snow.

Eventually, the field would be brought to pit road and subsequently put under the red flag, as the wintry mix continued for the next 15 to 20 minutes, before subsiding, allowing the track to be dried and the field to anticipate going back green.
