NASCAR Postpones Saturday Race At Richmond

    RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Steady rain that began Friday night and
expectations that it would continue through Saturday with Tropical
Storm Hanna moving in forced NASCAR to postpone Saturday night’s
Sprint Cup Series race at Richmond International Raceway.
    The Chevrolet 400, which will finalize the field of 12 drivers
who will be eligible to compete for the 2008 series championship,
is now scheduled to be run at 1 p.m. Sunday.
    The Nationwide Series race scheduled for Friday night was moved
to Sunday at 7 p.m.
    NASCAR said the field for both races will be set based on
driver’s standings and that the garage will be closed and the cars
impounded until 7:30 a.m. on Sunday.
